years ago i worked for target. a shit job with shit pay. the only thing that was fun about it was this dude andy i worked with was funny as shit.
one winter the hr team was putting up decorations in the break room and the fat sow that was in charge of all things cheery and cheesy was putting up snowflakes with everyones name on it that worked in the store. well she had left for the day and andy and i were the closing shift and walked in the break room and found this and realized we couldn't find our names. she obviously hadn't finished and had left all the supplies there. so we decided to put our names up. we wrote our names on a couple snowflakes and taped them up... their might have been an inside joke on one of them, i dont really remember, probably 'unit 91' and 'radio' from supertroopers as this is what we called each other over the walkies.
well the next day i had completely forgotten about it. and my supervisor comes up and says something like, 'what did you guys do?' and i was like, 'i dont follow.' he goes on to say that the fat sow (cannot remmber her name so fat sow will suffice) came in and found that we had 'defaced' her decorations and 'mocked' her and she had just decided to say fuck it and started tearing all the snowflakes off the wall. she apparently was pissed. i just sat there. i was completely dumbfounded. then i got pissed i was like all we did was write our fucking names on snowflakes. if anything we helped her by saving her 10 secs. my supervisor started laughing but i could tell he was trying his best to act like a 'boss' and kept telling me well i have to have a talk with you about it, since thats policy, so we've had a talk. i told him i refused to apologize because this was sincerely idiotic. he laughed some more.
i was then approached by nearly every other high up in the company. some were curious to know why the sow was upset, some wanted to know what we did, and others wanted to 'reprimand' me (andy had the day off) for my actions as that is the 'policy.'
eventually the manager heard about it and came up to talk to me. i think my exact response was 'are you kidding?' he had only heard through the grapevine and was trying to find out what i had done that was so offensive. i told him the story. he goes 'THAT's what this is about?' he seemed genuinely pissed that this had gone on this long.
i never did apologize. stupid sow.
