Okay, so here's the deal.
A few weeks ago I started work in a tennis pro shop. I do court and facilities maintenance. It's at a popular yacht club in the area. Yesterday it was raining, so a good bit of the work I would have had to do wasn't doable.
When I got there, the trash cans were all about 1/3 full. I decided they weren't full enough to justify taking out.
The gym floor looked pretty clean, so I didn't sweep it. I wiped down the machines and refilled the water tank.
The bathroom and pro shop floors also looked good to me, so I didn't sweep those either.
The bathrooms didn't need restocking, as all of the toilet paper rolls were at least 2/3 full, and the same thing went for the paper towels and soap.
I didn't make coffee because nobody else would be in there that day except for me and a photographer, and I rarely drink coffee. The photographer usually brings his own beverages.
I didn't blow off the patio because, again, it was raining, and there was too much water on the patio to avoid making a huge mess with the leaf blower.
I didn't put ice in the coolers because nobody would be out there. Again, it was raining.
I did restock towels, and I washed all the ones left there by the people before. I left them in the dryer when they were finished for the next shift's employee to fold, as they do at this pro shop.
So yeah, very little work needed done, right? Everything's going swimmingly, I'm just chilling in the pro shop, not really doing anything because I don't need to do anything.
Well, some unknown period of time after my shift ends, my boss comes in and I was informed that he was very angry with me because I supposedly didn't do anything.
He asked the photographer, who doesn't know jack sh*t about my job, what I was doing, and the photographer says I was just sitting around.
My boss says that the bathrooms weren't cleaned or restocked, which is incorrect, because they were fine. I cleaned every fixture and restocked everything.
He says the gym was a mess too, and there were dirty towels everywhere. Not when I went in there at the end of my shift there weren't.
What do I do?????
