Update XXII: Cleaning Up the Meat at [redacted].

[WalterMitty]

does [redacted] like to throw money around?

im a little worried about this 6 day stretch.  hopefully bushie's chubby feet can hold out!

[Joe Biden 2020]

Lunch today was water out of the water fountain...  I've got stuff I can eat when I get home, so there's no need in going out.  The day is going really well still. It's not perfect, but the job is sufficient, it pays the bills, and it's enjoyable.  I will get off at 1630 and go home and rest my feet.

Only "sufficient"? That sounds foreboding.

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

Yeah, there won't be any dieting changes. He won't even touch the stuff they sell at that grocery store!

So Bagel Bites and a mandarin orange because... ya know... fruit's good for ya.

From the sound of it, he won't last much longer at the job. He's quickly gone from the over the moon infatuation with his new job to calling it "sufficient." We know what comes next...

Nah, I disagree.  He hasn't hinted at any problems with management, yet.  That's always the telltale sign for Bushie at a job.  If he starts talking about how he and the boss are laughing about how slow he puts the price sticker on the package?  Then I'll worry.

Good point. That happens too. I do remember some previous jobs he's had though, where he was all gung ho about it and then started saying "it's a good job, it pays the bills." I believe the last AT&T call center job went this way. Next thing you knew it, he had quit.

That was on account of some dope-peddlin' sinful negroes.  A rather unique situation in Update lore.

Yea, Bushie's enthusiasm is trending down

Yea, Bushie's enthusiasm is trending down

How would it not?  He can be as sunshine and lollipops as he wants... he still works at a supermarket behind the meat counter.  This is so, so far from his Leave It To Beaver fantasy that he's built up over the years that there's just no way his enthusiasm is as high as he wants us to believe.  I'm quite glad he is calling it "sufficient", because that's all it is.  His nonsense about it being an amazing career move and climbing up the corporate ladder was a nauseating put-on IMO.  His realistic approach is just so much more palatable. 

The second he stops with the Work Night 8 and Job Week 3 crap I'll know he's going to actually keep the job, because no one does this stuff.  You go to work and it's part of your routine and that's it.  I can't imagine even Bushie writing "Onto Work Night 137!".

I was backreading an old season and I found this:

1.  I will see the dietitian on Wednesday, July 10, 2013 at 13:00.
2.  I will come back with the same enthusiasm for Kenya like I did last year and I do now.
3.  I will plow through the CAD and be setting things up in Fort Worth a year from now.[/quote]

The next post by Phil had a more fun prediction:

"I wonder if Our Dear Friend will come back a Muslim. Mohammad Kareem al-Bushie."

On a related note, if Bushie loses his current job, maybe that's a sign that it's time to finally make the move to Kenya.

But he always does this kind of stuff. His dwindling enthusiasm is a cause for concern if you remember his past jobs. The CADD job was different because he seemed to like it aside from watching the clock all day, making errors and leaving work exactly at 5pm every day.

The jobs he ends up quitting are the ones he starts viewing as a paycheck.

Does being a preacher or pastor pay anything?  There are so many infomercials starring Sunshine Christians talking about bettering yourself.  Maybe Bushie can fill the hellfire and brimstone void?

Bushie's predictions are always sad to read. I belief he was supposed to be 150 lbs by now according to his 2013 weight projections.

That has already been visited, and Bushie doesn't seem interested in that for whatever reason. He was an associate pastor at his old church in Chactaw, OK years ago, but that didn't pay him anything.

[King]

He'd lose interest the same way. Any work bores him. If he got paid to watch sports, he'd lose interest.

[Lief 🗽]

This newest update is very ominous indeed. We've all seen this song and dance before. Everything is going exactly as it always done.

Though, in past Bushie's defense, at least he wasn't pointlessly starving himself for no reason while he worked at his past jobs. Which is ironic, because he was just sitting in a chair at these. Now he has a job with physical exertion and he's decided to fast for his entire shift. RIP Bushie, RIP job, RIP packed meats.

Forget 2013. Just last week, he was predicting that he would lose several pounds per shift. He should be well on his way just by that projection.

Like I told Dookie, I'm not seeing the actual issues with job performance that we've seen in the past.  And even if there are issues he is moving to the new store opening very soon and should be under new supervisors/management.  Fresh start, so to speak.  Perhaps I am that eternal optimist, but I don't foresee a lot of issues if Bushie can actually get there.  Once we hear about

A. Laughing about mistakes with management

or

B. Half-days and days off

...then I'll join the peanut gallery.  Until then, the meat lives on.

Good Monday Evening!  I am home from an awesome day of work!  Despite being very sore right now, today was a great day.  Like I said earlier, today was all meat prep for Wednesday's Grand Opening.  2 days down, 4 to go on this work-stretch.  I talked to the department manager and he said the 0400-1230 shift is very uncommon and is only happening to me because of the first week of the store.  Next week, I should get back to a little more pedestrian schedule.  I may still work 0500-1330, but I shouldn't have too many 0400-1230.  Although, I don't what's the difference between getting up at 0200 or 0300...  Now, onto some serious relaxing!

[Gustaf]

So Bushie is complaining about the hours before the store even opened?

[Eraserhead]

Bushie, you should want a lot of hours. You need money.

Bushie, you JUST started here and you plan to stay.  Why are you going to the manager and bitching about anything?
