I told you so

How many times a day does one think 'I told you so?' Let me tell you the most recent time I wanted to tell someone this.
So towel service!! Yea, I'm so excited. No more running around worrying about if we will have enough for the day or not, no more trying to organize the laundry room every hour to make more room for more towels we can not do anything about. But my dreams were quickly washed away with the perpetual rains that seem to never end.


Monday the towel service came to give us the bags to collect the towels which they will be picking up Tuesdays and Fridays (originally then changed the very next day to Monday and Thursday, I'm already confused). But the biggest concern us the fact that they would be taking towels without bring some in the first day which would then in turn leave us with out towels because we would not be getting some from them and because we are not to be washing towels. Right? I mean that is the whole purpose of the towel service, right? Maybe that's just my thinking. But I don't have a college degree so maybe I'm not smart enough to do simple math. So I asked if we could not order a bunch so we would always have towels in the building even when they come and get the dirty ones. The answer to that was no we will continue to wash towels. So it's ok to waste money on soap, bleach, water, and electricity and pay someone else to do towels. You can save that money and put on my paycheck I'm definitely okay with that.

So Tuesday I'm thinking about the whole towel thing and I bring my concerns to my lovely boss. He says no its alright we will just continue to wash and dry towels and have the towel service to the ones we don't get to. What? Then whats the point of paying them to do towels for us! Ok that's fine. Wednesday the towel service comes out (wait that's not the day they are to come out right, or maybe I'm just even more confused) and brings us towels. Are the towels Dry? NOOOOOOO! I'm not going to ok them dropping them off but my boss does. So before we can put those out what do we have to do DRY THEM. OMG are you kidding me. So he says we are to use all the towels they bring out then wash towels if we have to. Night shift uses all the towels, that's the point of having the towel service, leaving the morning shift without towels. I get a phone call in the morning asking why didn't the night shift do towels. They did, they picked up dirty ones and bagged them. Ya but they didn't wash and dry any so now we only have the ones left over from what the towel people didn't pick up, which is almost non.

OMG is this not what I told him on Monday. I mean I specifically recall illustrating this exact situation to him over the phone. The exact one! The sad thing with him is he only listens to certain people that work there and the rest just have to let him fall on his face for him to get what is going on. But then I'm the one at fault and the one not doing the job! Whatever......


I TOLD YOU SO!!!
