Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 1 month agoWow! You sound so much happier now you are working full time and with a nicer bunch of people. It is a good feeling to know there isn't going to be any drama. I feel the same way about my job, there is no drama, and any that does happen, it doesn't last. It's great. I am really glad you are happier. It's also great to have people around who like the same sorts of things as you, I have several HP fans who work with me. I have lots of themed masks as well, I have three HP, but I also have ones with butterflies, turtles, wolves, some plain ones, all sorts, all made by my Mum. I got the book The Christmas Pig by J K Rowling for Christmas. It's a kids book, but it's really good. If you get the chance give it a read. I am reading the 3rd book in a series by Deborah Challinor about three convict girls in the 1800's, transported from England to Australia. They are really good, I read the first 2, then read The Christmas Pig, but have gone back to them as I missed the characters, and really wanted to find out what happens to them. I have one more after this one, and I think it's going to be sad to leave them when I finish the next book. Then I might read
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 2 months agoHeya. Happy New Year! I hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year? We had a quiet one. Did nothing on Xmas Day and my Aunty and Uncle were here from New Plymouth for New Year. I haven't really been online much in the last few months, as it has taken me awhile to adjust to being back out in the world of work, after lockdown. It has been quite hard, and I have been coming home shattered most nights, and not been bothered to do anything. I hope all is well with you, and that you are still enjoying working full time? It's been hard going back out into the world after being in lockdown for so long. We have to wear face masks everywhere we go, and we have to wear them at work, them only time we get to take them off at work is when we are on our breaks, then we're only meant to take them off to eat or drink. It is horrible, as we are in the middle of summer, and it's hot anyway, and they just make us hotter. Are reading anything at the moment? I am almost finished a book called Girl of Shadows by Deborah Challinor, she is a New Zealand author, and this is the second book in a series set in the 1830's about 4 convict girls who are transported from England to Au
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 5 months agoThe puzzle took me ages, but that was mainly because I only did little bits here and there for a long time, but now it's done and it looks great. I'm so glad I have finished it. We are still in lockdown, we have a little freedom, but I think they have made a mistake letting us move around too soon. The case numbers are getting higher, and people are breaking the rules, and it's no longer just in Auckland. We find out on Monday if are staying as we are for longer, I hope we do, because there is to much out there in my local area and in the area I work. I'm not ready to go back out there yet. My boss called me yesterday, and asked if there was any chance I could go into work, and give them a hand with the online store, but I can't at the moment as the buses I use are not running, and I don't drive so I have no way of getting there, was bummed but not mad, as it's not my doing. She was hoping to get as many of us as she could to help out. She can't do anything to me, as we are in lockdown, and she nor the company can force it. Congrats on becoming full time. It sounds like things are working out for you finally. You sound happier. It's hard when you're the only one there
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 5 months agoHeya. Sorry I haven't been around, I haven't been online alot lately, as I have been finishing my 3-D Harry Potter jigsaw puzzle, which is really big, and has taken me a very long time to get it finished. I finally got it done yesterday. It is of the Great Hall and two of the towers, so quite big as you can imagine. How have things been? Did you get your days at work sorted out? Here in NZ, your Mum couldn't have done what she did, nor could your boss change your days and hours, without talking to you first. In fact here your boss could get in trouble for several things, first and foremost is breach of privacy, he cannot discuss your work hours or anything to do with your job with anyone, without your permission. It was a pity you didn't get to see 'Jessica' on her last day. Is 'Bellatrix' still there? Do you still see your 'friend'? I'm still not back at work, as Auckland is still in lockdown, this is the end of week 7 I think. We find out on Monday if we can join the rest of NZ in level 2, which means getting back to work and being able to go out more. I actually hope we stay we we are for another couple of weeks, as the covid case are still jumping around too
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 7 months agoWell we are still in lockdown, and will be for at least the next couple of weeks. Here in Auckland we are still in level 4 (total lockdown), as of midnight tonight everyone south of Auckland goes down to level 3, which isn't that much different to level 4, but they can move around a little more than we can. We have to stay in full lockdown, as Auckland has the most cases of covid at the moment. But oh well, we've got to do what we've got to do, and hopefully it is working, as our case numbers are starting to drop, hopefully they stay that way. I am glad things have improved for you at work, and there are some nice people there now. Lets hope that Jessica learnt her lesson, and has changed her ways. :D Has Bellatrix gone yet? Maybe one day you and your former friend, can be friends again, but at least he has also maybe learned his lesson to, and knows what a jerk he was being. I do truely hope you guys can eventually work things out. I have almost finished Glass House, it was better than I thought it was going to be, and am looking forward to reading the other 2 in the series. Keep smiling, and stay safe. :D
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 7 months agoHi. Sorry it's been a while, I just haven't been online much lately, I just can't be bothered with it these days. How are things at work? I hope things have improved, and that your ex-friend has been in trouble for the way he carried on, or better yet he's been fired for his behavior, or at least been moved to a different department. I hope that both Jessica and Bellatrix have been fired finally, it would serve them right. People should only treat others the way they want to treated themselves. I don't post anything about work or any of my co-workers, not even that they are nice, it's just not my thing, and it can just cause trouble. In fact, I don't post anything much at all, I am tempted sometimes, but again it can only cause problems, so I don't bother. Life is to short to be caught up in dramas all the time, so I just keep quiet and watch everyone else tie themselves up in knots over silly little things. I have had both my covid jabs now, which is good, as we are back in lockdown, level 4, for at least 7 days at this stage, so no work for now. We have 7 community cases so far, which is the first time we have had it in the community for 6 months. Hopeful
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 8 months agoThanks. I'm feeling loads better now, still not quite 100%, but almost there. It's back to work tomorrow, so I guess I'll find out how things are. I'm so sorry to hear he turned like that. He sure sounds like a piece of work. Why would anyone do what he did, and now they are letting him get away with it, and the person who helped him and went along with it, that is so wrong, and the company should know about it, here that would be an instant dismissal, no second chance. It is a breach of your privacy, and that in it's self is against the law. I think you should report them both to your head office, as they have breached your privacy, and you want something done about them. It really sounds like you are better off without him, he sounds like a real creep. You're better off without any of those who are being nasty, and they are the ones who will end up in big trouble if they keep treating you the way they are. Just keep doing your job, and keep away from him as much as possible, be civil to him/them no matter what they say or do, and hopefully the bosses will see what is happening, and act on it. You can't be Voledermort you still have people who are friends with you.
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 8 months agoYeah, I hope so too. I hated all the management changes at the last place. I am hoping that I still have a job, as I have been off sick this last week, which isn't ideal, having only been there for 3 weeks. I have had a sinus infection, and asthma, so because I had a cough, I had to get a covid test done. Thankfully it came back negative, but I had to stay home until I got my results, and I also had already booked the 21st off as me and mum were getting our first covid jab, so when I rang my boss, she told me to take the whole week, get better and start back on Sunday, so I hope that this happening now doesn't mess things up. I'm sorry to hear that you no longer have a friendship, with your former friend. May I ask what happened? You're friends with some of the others though, aren't you? Surely they will still be friends with you, so it will maybe help a little. Keep believing in yourself, know that others believe in you ( I believe in you), and you've got this. Maybe one you and your ex friend, can be friends again. Yes, it is always good to have people around who understand our HP world. It's quite confusing for Muggles. I also work with several Muggles,
Samantha and Bugsy2 years, 8 months agoIt's a shame that your boss isn't coming back. I always find it hard to adjust to a new boss coming in, at my last job, they were always moving the managers around from store to store, which was a real pain, as you would just get used to someone, and they would move them, and we'd have to start all over again, with someone new. I hated it. Hopefully they won't be like it at my new job. I am loving my new job, it's so great to be surrounded by books and products I relate to, and am interested in. We have soooooooo many Harry Potter products, games, books, toys, just so much. I want it all. LOL!!! I work with a Gryffindor, and 2 Hufflepuffs. It's totally cool working with people who understand the Harry Potter world. Everyone is really nice there, and are very helpful, nothing is too much trouble for anyone, we truely are a team. I hope you and your friend have sorted things out. Maybe he's a little jealous that you don't spend so much time with him now, and that you are making friends, and you don't need him as much now. Anyway, I hope you guys can work it out. Yes, I have read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. It is the script of the stage show. It is good, but I'm
