never cheek your manager!

Thu Jan 26, 2012 7:55 pm

I am studying in Bournemouth Uni at the moment but I work part time on the checkouts in Makro (Yeah I know, but it keeps me going and it is good pay). My manager is a Crystal Palace fan and we have a laugh and banter all the time. In the first leg of the Carling Cup he told one of the supervisors to ask me "Does Anthony Gardener, Bullet header mean anything to you?". I looked over to see him smiling and laughing at me. I replied with "Yeah Yeah" and served the next customer.

Today I told the supervisor to ask him "Does Tom Heaton amazing goalkeeper mean anything to you?". He turned around laughed and smiled at me. The next thing I know he gets me a high vis jacket and a trolley key and makes me go push trolleys till the end of my shift.

As I stood out there in the freezing cold, I see him looking out the window laughing at me. It then started to rain.

I think I learnt my lesson.

You think that's bad!


My manager told me I support Man U the other day.

What can I do against that?
