Thomas Bernhard(he couldnt shake calling him Bermhard(berm an embankment a defence against tanks  or braying asses)  he couldnt curb his tongue for his life though fortunately he didnt discussed writing or writers with many   

Bernhard accepting a minor Austrian literary award remarked  Es ist alles lächerlich, wenn man an den Tod denkt.  Everything is ridiculous, when one thinks of Death.  


everything is ridiculous when weighed against death



unfortunately if death has not littered your waybefallen family or friends youre at a long long distance and deprivation  removed from death you cant understand it you weigh your artificial entitlement(all entitlements are artifice and fortunate) against others misfortunes  why would you waste your valuable time considering the other  theyre the other  thats all you need to know about them  they are not you or yours and of course you know you never would be them and they could never be you  the other exactly is not of your bloodyour concern  unless however you might need blood which you then anticipate they would provide for you  how could they not  holding yourself in esteem who would not want you to have their blood so you could heal and prosper  and unthinkingly possibly prosper on their backs 


he smiledthoroughly appreciating Bernhards sentiment

he really liked that he found Bermhard through W G Sebald  

Sebald revered him 

how could he not

anyone should be able to appreciate the monologues or rants of a man who wrote what he saw didnt manipulate judgment and left the loose leaning threatening-to-tip bundle in the readers lap to determine what they read

he writes

its the readers job to gleam what he meant  or not



What matters is whether we want to lie or to tell the truth and write the truth, even though it never can be the truth and never is the truth.  Bernhards The Gathering

So what are we going to do about thisits the second time in two weeks youve been dinged

Well   first  were not having this conversation on the floor Itll be in private

Excuse me

Were not talking on the floor  Well discuss it in private which is something you should have extended me since youre the manager an agent of the company Im not  I earn minimum wage an Im a freaking bargain for the labour I provide  No breakshavent missed a scheduled day and this bitch corporate is riding me with has yet to be explained other than its policyohboy  sacrosanct policy  Time and again Ive challenged its operationasked  for the simple facts evidenceif you will  regarding its why were using it  an instead Im toldits reiterated  its corporate policy  as if Ill swallow something unqualified  it is a dictate  an frankly until it is qualified to me it will remain innocuous without substance a moot point

How is its data usedan dont tell me it doesnt accrue data  that wont cut it  todays technology exists for the purpose of accruing data

You should also understand that I take nothing out of anyones mouth unless it can be substantiated or corroborated thats the cut of my cloth I question authority   Ive asked  An still nothing  Yeahso lets have this conversation  The reason I refuse to enter managementdespite yours and others offering is that Id have to buy into corporates mentality which I understand Id be unable to influence or alter
Why would I do that
 



they made their way to the office at the rear of the storebehind swinging doors to an odd floor-to-ceiling cubicle

he lead the way

his manager followed

which perhaps addressed his management style lackluster leadership

inside the cubicle his manager pulled out a metal folding chair for him to sit on beside him  Please have a seat

No thank you  I think better on my feet

You cant sit and talk to me about this

I wouldnt be able to sit still  An again I think better on my feet  You say Ive been dinged twice by secret shoppers  Lets put that euphemism awaysecret shoppers  theyre snitches  You can call them secret shoppers if you prefer  I prefer snitches  Looking for errors  Theres nothing constructive about them  Theyre destructive

I think snitches is a strong term

We disagree  Understood   What does it mean to be dinged  And what does it mean to me to be dinged in regards to and in comparison with my overall performancework ethic

Its policy


And


Its policy

No  Explain the policy  Why its been instituted  Who instituted it  The demerit  What is it against my ample merit   Youre the managerI have to assume that holding that role you have a working knowledge and understanding of corporate policies
Collusion
Have you colluded with corporate

Excuse me

Pretty simple question  Have you shared my schedule with corporate and set me up  Ive been snitched twice in two weeks  Strikes me very odd  Ive been here two years next month  Been snitched twice in the last two weeks 


Did you feed corporate my schedule

Thats not the question . .
. . Its a good question

Its not the question the question is why youre adverse to policy

It probably hasnt been notedthough it should have been  Virtually all the paperwork corporate has had me sign Ive printed beneath my signature U D  U D is an acronym for under duress  I have not willfully signed my name  I cant comply with anything that has not been entirely fleshed out has not been substantiated  To put a fine point on it  Ive asked deliberately and I have yet to be shown

You have been told . .
. . Being told does not provide for what I asked to see  Shall we game out this verification that has corporates panties in a knot

Game out

Of course

What do you mean game out

Verificationthe scanner   Ultimately it will eliminate my job or one part of my job
 
I dont see what youre getting at

You dont

No

  
he cleared his throat and began We let the customer scan their I D

The scanner verifies

Let the customer scan their purchases

Let the customer bag their purchases

Let the customer pay with their card

The customer leaves the store 

Where in that is the cashier necessaryexcept for assuring the customer doesnt cheat that they scan all their items

Theres my solution to snitches

Thatll be my policy


Im doing all the talking

Lets get some answers

Provide me with what is done with the collected data  Address my question of collusion  Affirm Ive done nothing illegal  I checked their I Ds  They werent underage



nothing
his manager might have thought he was blitzing him

he was

unfortunately because his manager was a manager in name onlywas someone who did what they were told without question  who didnt push back

because corporate was infallible

because he wasnt independent

because he wasnt a freethinker

because lackeys and asskissers rise like cream

nothing

his manager sat silently across from where he stood


when he spoke eventually he had better not say Because
