Reflections

Things are not going as expected in the area of the new job... I'm not sure how its going to work out. My first 3 days have been pretty awful...

Day one... There are these 5 or 6 girls that won't give me the time of day. There are 2 that will. Also on day one, one of the girls that won't talk to me puts a notice on everybody's station, it reads:

"Hey Everyone... Attention... XXXXXXX is missing a ring and it is a one of a kind ring so if you find it please give it back. It is silver and has a white stoneon the top. It would be appreciated if you could give it back or we will have to get loss prevention involved. Thank you"

I don't give it much thought, because its my first day and why would I know anything about it. Right?

Day Two... The same set of girls won't talk to me... I am polite, smile and saying "Hi" I just don't get it... I'm nice... So later that evening I am talking to another girl (one of the 2 that will talk to me) and she tells me that XXXXXXX thinks that I have her ring, because I wear a ring on my right hand that looks like her ring.... But she wouldn't come to me that day and ask me about my ring. So on my first day I am marked as a thief.... Why would I steal something an wear it on my first day?

So I write XXXXXXX a note and leave it on her station for her to read on Monday. It says:

"XXXXXXX,
I am aware that you are missing a ring and think that I have it. I assure you that the ring I am wearing is not yours. I purchased this ring at JCP in Colorado last fall. It says on the inside "Thailand" so it is not a one of a kind. I am sorry for the confusion, you are more than welcome to take a look at my ring. Also, next time feel free to talk to me, I am a very approachable person. I am not trying to start something here. I would just like to get along with everyone and have things go smoothly.
Cheryl"

So what do you think? I know what all you SDA people are thinking... If I didn't wear the ring in the first place...

Also on Day Three... the new stylist is to get all the walk-ins if he/she is available (thats company policy) I got skipped over for 3 haircuts in a row and I was standing there at the front desk ready to go the whole time...

One of the girls that will talk to me, is leaving soon and she told me of a salon that she used to work at, that she recomends I go take a look at if I am not happy here. I might just do that... I don't need all this drama....
