| I never thought we where an item in the first place... |
This part of the story is embarrassing to talk about but will help
me to feel much better once it is all written down. Knowing deep down
that Chuck was playing with me the entire time and given the fact that he never
offered to come home with me also was an indication. There was a few
times that I did offer him to come home with me, once even mentioning to Chuck
that my birthday was in a few days than saying "we all know what I
want" with a smile on my face. He never outright refused but did
tell me to be careful what was said because if another employee overheard my
comments, sexual harassment charges could be brought up and he did not want to
go down that road with me. When he said that never again was a comment
made from me or him until that following October.
It felt really
good when Chuck looked at me that way, even if it was just all a big game to
him. During the first few weeks of employment at FT the main attraction
was his personality and sense of humor. Believing that Chuck was actually
a people person and understood, especially given that it appeared as if he was
not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Hiring minorities, people with
bad backgrounds and disabilities of course he understood. Chuck did not
go to a fancy college, receive a fancy degree and he started the business from
the ground up so anybody would think he understood his employees and going to
him with problems seemed like the sensible thing to do.
A few days after
the Haunted Hayride, Chuck and Justin, his IT Technician, stood by the lockers
during my afternoon break. Chuck stood next to my locker, which was one
of the bottom ones. Usually during break I would go into my locker to get
my wallet and purchase a coffee at a nearby Cafe'. When going into the
locker I would squat instead of bending, it is more lady like to squat down not
to bend over with your derriere, sticking out. Also, it is not good for the back to bend over in such a way. For
some unknown reason, on that particular day, without even doing so on purpose I
had a dollar in my pocket and decided to get a candy bar out of the vending
machine. It took an entire week to realize what that situation was all
about.
Halloween day Chuck
brought his wife and kinds, he acted so weird, not in the, guilty of doing
something he shouldn't have done. Chuck was saying hello to me and
smiling which was rare because at that time usually he ignored comments I made,
as if nobody was standing there in front of him at all or looked at me as if a
strange piece of crap was standing there. Now thinking about it, the
indication was that what was supposed to happen in his screwed up mind was that
I was to run up to his wife that Halloween day, sobbing and acting like some
crazed lunatic woman. Than Chuck would have had his reason to discharge
me for insubordination. When that did not happen than the bad production
reports had started being issued to me.
