    Default Oops... I made a promise...

    Last Monday, my manager told me that he'd give me a free base if I worked next Monday. They're always trying to get girls to come in regularly and I'm always there Mondays anyways... So I was like, "Hell yea!"

    I just realized that "next Monday" is Memorial Day! Crap! I don't want to work then! What do I do? He already gave me my free base for last Monday... I think I might be stuck. He fucking tricked me!

    well, I guess it'[s a case of just having to suck it up and learn to think about why he's asking next time.....

    That's why day planners are nice! Especially if you didn't miss a beat when you said yes, it doesn't sound like there's any good (worker) reason for you to back out. If they're giving free base to girls then they probably won't have many girls at all there! Just have an extra fun Saturday and Sunday.

    I considered backing out (like, showing up at the club, giving them the base and telling them to screw it all), but I'm just going to go in. I'm going to show up when the doors open (so I can leave by 5) and bring a magazine and I've told my regs to come in. And yes, I will be VERY suspcious next time! He probably would have died if I had whipped out a mini planner from my purse, hehe. Grrr!


    austinatalie, what do you mean drugs? Yea, it was a free house fee... Worst $30 of my life, hehe.

    Hahaha! I didn't think she meant that, I figured it had something to do with free housefee pass or something but to be totally honest when I did hear free base I did instantly think of free base cocaine which I believe was the closest to crack before there was actually crack. Never free based and never done crack so don't know for sure.

    I suppose I would sound like a real hardcore geek if I were to joke at this point, "All your freebase are belong to us," wouldn't I?

    Bella freebase= cocaine. My boyfriend and I used to joke about how management gives us free base (coke) so that we'd show up at work all jacked up and ready to work our butts off. (and BTW I've never done coke.)

    They seem to really need girls there right now. That's why they probably neglected to tell you that "next Monday" was indeed Memorial Day.

    I think you are doing the right thing by going in w/ magazine and inviting all your regs in. At least then you can make some $$$.

    There may be a time you'll need them to cut YOU a break, and at least now you will have some leverage. When I worked there mgmnt was cool with me b/c I worked a lot consistently and I was there when they needed me.

    And because you're chgoosing to do the right thing, you'll prolly wind up having a productive day at the office.

    Yea, well my car decided to blow a headgasket (I think, I can't tell for sure until the mechanic checks it out... they re-open Tuesday). So, I can either drive my sister's car down there and work or I can tell them (I already texted the head bouncer about the problems and that I wasn't sure if I could make it and that I would keep him posted) that I can't do it. They probably won't care (or remember), but I can always offer to pay the base BACK when I get myself mobile again and back into work.
