Pass the germs please

Tell me what you think, and if I overreacted at all...

Ok, last week, I went to my local gas station where I know all the workers, and they know me too...I am only in there 3 times a day!! lol

Anyway, "J", a male worker, had the worst cold...I am talking, swollen eyes, bright red nose, coughing and hacking every 1-2 minutes...the works!!

"What the fuck are you doing here if your so sick?" I asked in my polite, charming way...

"There is no one to cover my shift except the manager, and he said he would fire me if I didn't show up...and, gotta feed my kids ya know?"

At this point, we are over by the fountain drink station...he was refilling all of the cups and straws...and coughing all over everything in site!!

"Doesn't that jackass know that you are endangering the health of every single person who comes into this store?"

"Yep, he doesn't care, as long as he doesn't have to work any extra hours..."

I have met this manager before...walking shitbag, let me tell ya...and so I believed everything J was saying to me.
I also made sure not to buy a fountain drink either!!

This is the part where I need your opinion...

I left the store, and immediately went and found out what the corporate number was and called. I talked to some woman who was apparently in charge of all of the stores in my part of the state. I let her know about what had happened, and a few other things I had observed this wonderful manager doing, like selling cigarettes to a couple of underage girls...I only know they are underage cause they go into that store all the time, so I have seen them buy cigarettes from this guy many times, and I asked another employee about the girls..."Yep, they are minors...but, he's the boss, sooooo..."
I made sure to tell the lady on the phone that J was a great worker and that he always does a good job...he is just being held hostage by this prick of a manager who knows that J has to keep his job...I did not want J to get fired for showing up to work sick, I wanted the manager to do his damn job and make sure the shift was covered so his employees did not HAVE to work sick in the first place!!

So, guess what?? I went into the store last night...pricky the manager is no longer employed there!! I did my little happy dance...I did not, however, tell any of the employees that I had called corporate...
On the one hand, I feel great cause that dipshit should not have been such a loser, right?? But, on the other hand, I feel grimy for getting someone fired...he probably needed his job too huh??

But, then, I say to myself..."I had to say something...germs were being thrown hither and yon...all over the fucking place!"

What do you think blogger buddies?? I can take your honest opinion...if you want to say that I should have mindedmyownfuckingbusinesswhothehelldoIthinkIamanyway...that would be fine.

btw...it has been snowing here...FUCKING SNOWING I SAID!!!!! When, oh when will that bitch known as winter let her death grip on my sad little state go??
