Kit's Kitty Korner [1 to 30!]

[Kitalpha Hart]

I have never been to said house. Don't even know what it looks like

Lem, keep in mind that I'm also far inland enough that anything that hits the coast will be blunted by the time it reaches me

[Gingerale]

Are you still able to live at home and save some money , Kit?

I am happy you have still been able to work but sounds like there may be some problems coming up at work with the union? If they strike can you get unemployment?

[galled]

If you go on strike do you have to picket?

[Kitalpha Hart]

Uuhh
I do live at home still. And there's a plan in place for me to take the house in some years mostly to spite my oldest sister lol

Idk about the rest. Picketing does bring visibility tho

I do know it isn't the union giving the company shit, it's the company trying to pull some shady shit, up to and including bribery and we aren't falling for it
Ooh pay raises. In exchange for three holidays removed
Ooh the state law with the vacation/sick time merger. In exchange for people who have been there for some years losing a week or more of vacation time

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I get holidays off with no pay because they make sure I work under 40 hrs a week and if I work 40 hrs a week then it has to be for 6 months straight to be entitled to holiday pay. But if a holiday falls in that 6 months then it discounts the time. But I am glad to have a day off & I can use vacation time to cover that day off.

They work around it one way or another. Doesn't seem right sometimes because its not like I could work a holiday if I wanted because we are closed.

Oh that would be nice if you could inherit the house!

[Kitalpha Hart]

They dropped it to just President day and good Friday dropped. Which are two no one really care about
Our holidays are paid, provided we show up the shift before and the shift after said holiday. Unless given permission not to

They worked out the state law thing to not absolutely merk the time off of those who have had more than 56 hours, so they keep that vacation time, plus 56 hours flex time
Hilariously, during the round 2 meeting someone came up with a situation that those working on the contract had not come up with: our two for one attendance hit plus the law flex time 3 shifts no note required, basically we can go a full week without coming in or needing a note, right? The poor guy had to admit that such a scenario hadn't crossed their minds

The pay raise to top of every grade? Retroactive to first of the month. V nice
This one passed

It would be, because even if bf gets the one he wants and I move in with him, I can rent out this one
Or if things go south or something occurs, I still have house

Bf, as he called me: whatcha doing?
Me: waking up
Bf: breaking up?
Me, louder: waking up
Ahahahaha i mumble when I'm tired, poor guy

[Gingerale]

Sounds like your guy has a sense of humor. I'm glad he makes you laugh!

I don't think Good Friday is a holiday here anymore. So much for an Easter holiday! Then the Presidents birthdays which we'd get off now got lumped into one President's day.

So many people looking to hire over here. Too bad cost of living is so much!

[Kitalpha Hart]

He does. He was very worried for a second but after I repeated myself he felt a lot better
He's finally getting a haircut. After telling me he was going to get one soon since June ahahahahaha

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I like the Kitty Korner ...

For awhile barber's were closed and I know quite a few who watched youtube to learn how to clip their own hair! Then again some just let it grow long and loose!

[Kitalpha Hart]

Oh my god the first pic he sent me was so unflattering ahahahahahahahahahahaha
He needs to trim the facial hair too, it's getting long and blobby and the pic emphasized that hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
I gotta see him in person to know for sure just how bad it is ajahahahajahahahahahjajahaha

[Kitalpha Hart]

I HAVE BEEN SHOWING COWORKERS THE FIRST PIC AND EVERY SINGLE ONE WHO KNOWS HIM HAS GONE WTF HAPPENED TO HIS HAIR IT IS BAAAAAAD
I AM DEAD AHAHAHAHAHA

[Lemon Cheesecake]

thanks, I needed a laugh.

[Kitalpha Hart]

He's picking me up after work so soon we shall know just how bad it is in person
He is going to get relentlessly mocked for that haircut
One of my coworkers and I have plans to tie him to a chair and fix it. The facial hair too, since that's getting out of control

[galled]

Heh, that's funny!

[Kitalpha Hart]

He's going to get a choice:
1. He takes dad and me out to breakfast and he asks dad politely for help
2. Coworker and I tie him to a chair and fire will be involved
