The Needs Of The Business

I worked a mid shift, so my entire day revolved around work. I have very little positivity in my heart right now. Work was bullshit. From the moment I got there, I kept having the strangest encounters with customers. That wasn't the worst of it. Some days are like that (customers stripping naked for fittings, trying on and then showing me see-through lingerie for no apparent reason, leaving bodily fluid stains on lingerie, couples making out in the store, etc.) The worst part, was that I had another one of those annoying shift extensions. I've had one every single day this week, and I'm not sure why. Not one day this week did I know when I was going to be off. I asked three times when I was going to be off today, and was repeatedly told 5:30pm. Then, at 5:15pm was told that they were going to use my extension until 8:30pm after all. Of course I'd made plans when I was told I'd be off at 5:30pm, but what does that matter? The needs of the business, right? Bullshit, I tell you. Why do I put up with this? Probably because there's no such thing as a corporation that actually gives a shit about people.
