My First Disciplinary Action ever taken at any job

"Incident Details: At 9:20 pm on BJ #4 a customer gave you their 24 Karat card which you failed to read and acknowledge the guest by using their name. This is a violation of Rule #36 Unsatisfactory job performance. Failure to maintain acceptable standards of quality or quantity of work."

If I do it again, I could be fired.

  1. How dare you not read their carrots card? I'm sure they were hurt and appalled by your clear disdain for basic social conventions. Next time, they should call the police.

  2. Jeez, do you work for Robot Overlords??? I can imagine that whole paragraph being read in a tinny monotone, prefaced by loud shouts of "Error! Error!"
    Seriously, though. You did fuck up pretty badly. When a customer gives you his 24 Karat card, that's like a sacred trust. It's like giving a priest your confession. And you took that confession and you stomped all over it. How will that customer ever go to Heaven now? HOW????????

  3. I kind of work for Robots. It is suppose to be a no-fault system, so if you do something wrong, you have no excuse. That's why a guy who had a heart attack got written up for leaving work early.

  4. Seriously though, what is a karat card, and how is it you are supposed to read it?

  5. It's a player's card. People turn them in when they are going to play and then they are "rated" and use the ratings to get comps. It just has their name and number on it.

  6. *That* is what your 'citation' was about?? It's even more ridiculous now that I know what it was referring to! Your workplace sounds like it's ruled with an iron fist. Shame on them.

  7. They seem to get their methods of running a business from Machiavelli.
