Forget You!
(I get scolded by my manager for forgetting a procedure that I read about a couple of weeks before but hadn’t actually used yet.)
Manager: “Are you stupid?! You signed that you read it and now you are saying you’ve forgotten it? There’s no excuse. You should have remembered it.”
(The next day I am shopping in our store half an hour before my shift starts.)
Manager: “[My Name], what are you doing?”
Me: “I’m shopping.”
Manager: “How dare you shop on company time?! Get to your section now! I’ll be dealing with you later.”
Me: “I don’t start for half an hour. You should know that.”
Manager: “How am I supposed to remember that?”
Me: “You wrote the roster. You are supposed to remember what time I start.”
Manager: “Are you getting back at me for what I said to you yesterday?”
Me: “Yep.”
