One of the things I do at work is make up a bunch of lids to the boxes with appropriate labels on them.
For some reason as of yet to be fully explained to me, these labels are like gold. They have to keep a strict count of them, they are locked up, and man don't they hate it when I get them out anyway without the key. But I need to sometimes, and I can't wait a half hour for one of the two retarded supervisors with a key to get them.
Another thing they hate is having extra lids made up at the end of the day. This perplexes me because sometimes its the only way to keep up. If I have an extra 300 of the XYZ label first thing in the morning, i've already got a good start. But they want zero extra lids, so I'm working on it.
Problem is, no one has any fucking clue as to whats going on there. We have a sheet we get every day that tells us exactly how many lids we need to make, but the problem is that its never right. It says I need 75 ABC labels...........well I might need 75, or I might need 100. Or I might only need 6.
And of course, every day they bitch. "Dude you have extra labels. Gotta watch that." To which I reply "I will always have extra labels until such time as people are communicating with me exactly how many lids i need to make."
"NO EXCUSES! I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT!"
Well what the fuck? If the people in charge can't even figure out how many orders we're getting, how the fuck am I supposed to?
