Life As A College-Educated Shaw’s Employee

From The Gynie Show’s My calculations are precise.: “My boss told me it’s not very nice to read a book while people are on break with me, he said they wanna talk and all I do is read. Not acceptable. I don’t get paid for my breaks. I sign out. But according to Brad, I have to volunteer my time during my break to listen to people talk about nothing. It’s the only way to be accepted into the cult [of Shaw's] and more imortantly your social clique. Although this was not in my working contract, it is a well known fact that you must revert to being 15 years old while socializing. This whole job is like an awkward high school dance. This is where boys will boys and women know their place and if someone messes with the balance she will be executed. I’m taking my break in my car again. The dashboard doesn’t judge me and the CD player isn’t a tool bag.”

    p.s. I got made fun of for being “smart” when I read at break. Apparently it wasn’t the cool thing to do….and we weren’t allowed to go to our cars for break, lest we be needed.

    bitches.
