Piecing Friends, I am officially "in the doghouse" today.
My failure to completely puree the smoothie has created quite a reaction from my W's sister. It was a lapse. There's no excuse. The job was going on seven hours on a Sunday, and I was tired, and was eager to make it to the dance venue. There is no excuse.
My W has been ordered to supervise me more closely. I fear they may fire us.
I continue to get angry emails from my W. She's using this opportunity to "kitchen-sink" me. I'm getting a long list of complaints about various issues.
I listened to her rant on the phone to allow her to vent.
It's frustrating because I've worked so hard on this job, and have helped to prepare a consistent product week after week, and now one lapse results in this.
I think this is consistent for her sister, though, so it's not personal. She holds people to high standards, and can change on a dime her opinion about you, feelings she's been holding in for some time.
I'll have to ride-out the storm, try to learn from the feedback, and hope we don't get fired.
I'm not looking forward to going home tonight.
