What's Bothering You?

[daringred_]

can overhear my brother on the phone, and i'm pretty sure he LIED about us being in a minor car collision so he wouldn't have to attend an appointment in-person ???? what the hell is wrong with him.

It's very possibly they're out of craps to give many things, and just want to get back home.

It could be how you frame things, maybe present your issue in a simple statement of fact. "Hey boss, there's only one roll paper towels left in the back."

Oh for sure! Especially in our fast-paced environment. I was more overthinking how I need help on certain busy days when I'm alone at my station for 11 hours lol. They're understanding, but I don't want to risk pushing it with them? Idk

Spoiler: tw: pet loss

The day will come tomorrow to put our Roxie down I want to cry so badly, but just can't bring myself to it. She's truly been one of a kind with so much character. I've never seen a dog with as much personality as her. Even strangers (and her vet) have fallen in love with her. I can only cherish the many good memories of her at this stage. One of my most recent favourite memories of her was when I was getting her food ready and she was getting really sassy with me; she got impatient and picked up a leaf and shook it in her mouth to show her disapproval. I haven't seen her play like that in so long...maybe that's a sign that it really is her time to go. She's been unwell for a long time and I know she'll be happier and in less pain after tomorrow 🕊

Fly high Roxie, you're one of a kind and you'll be truly missed

Aw sweetheart! I'm so sorry this has to happen! Agreed, thinking of what is best in this type of situation. She will now be pain-free <3

I am so sorry about Roxie. Losing a pet is so hard.

woke up almost 2 hours ago throwing up and have been doing it on-and-off since. have thrown up 3 times in the last hour and a half. my stomach is also upset; it’s not cramping though thankfully, so it might just be the force of throwing up triggering it. idk if this is food poisoning or not, i’m not dizzy like i was last time. but i do not feel good at all.

this week sucks so so bad and it’s only tuesday :c

Sorry your not feeling well. I hope you feel better soon.

- My mum has a cold and if she passes it on to me I won't be happy at all.
- One of my co-workers is so lazy it's actually infuriating. If she's not sitting in my supervisor's office having an hour long chit chat with him, she's ordering a Starbucks delivery and boasting about it whilst the rest of us are actually doing our jobs.
- My supervisor is also incredibly lazy and is always disappearing for a few hours each day leaving my department to deal anyone who needs his assistance, because you know he's the supervisor.
- Also I'm just tired and in desperate need of a break. Shame it's not Christmas already.

I love Starbucks, but I still don't see the point in ordering Starbucks for delivery. Delivery fees are expensive and I can't believe people actually have those drinks delivered. It's nearly $20 for a large drink on Uber Eats, at least. I'm assuming you meant she was ordering for delivery if she was at work.

100% agree with you.

I believe my co-worker used Uber Eats or Just Eat. Regardless she had one single Starbucks drink delivered to the back gate of our work premise which is primarily used for work related deliveries, not someone's takeaway order. Normally if anyone wants food that's not their lunch or the office has run out of snacks, they have to use their lunch break to sort it out etc.

Sensitive subject matter.

I've had two pregnancy losses back to back now. It's been very hard emotionally.
I just wish I knew what was going wrong but there is no explanation for it. Hopefully 2024 improves for me soon.

I am so sorry I’ve dealt with the same exact thing in the past, and every time it felt more raw and more numbing at the same time. Please feel free to dm me if you need someone to talk to who understands how painful it is, mentally, emotionally, and physically. I am here for you

That one is tricky. Then sometimes the next shift doesn't want to show up.

Certainly. Last week had to cover for someone who couldn't make it. Wasn't impossible, just could be painful.

i hate how worse things have gotten at work the past few days (weeks?) i only get 4-6 hours of sleep, 2-3 hours of down time, and the rest of the day is really just work or prepping for work. i’ve broken down a few times already, im so so so tired and sleepy, and i barely get help from my teammates. i really just want to get out of here but unfortunately i cant because this is part of the “training” i cant request for off days and i cant call in sick because they will make me make up for those lost days, and if they dont like your excuse then you’ll have to make up for DOUBLE of the days you missed. pleaseee let me have restful days i cant do everything all at once im so sick and tired

 

[himekirako]

made plans with @/Cheremtasy, @/Irescien, and @/Flaming_Oceans for tomorrow but the weather doesn’t seem like it’s gonna be good ;n; the forecast said it’ll be raining in the morning, but by the time it’s late afternoon there’ll be a drop in temperatures so it might become freezing rain.
i always feel like whenever we make plans, mother nature gets in the way ･᷄-･᷅

keeping my fingers crossed that the day will still be fun, although i know that just hanging out together will always be a good time

update

Spoiler: ,

ok for the whole story
i got home at around 8 PM and started working on stuff (both personal work and group work), ate dinner, then slept at 11 PM. woke up at 3 am to continue working on personal stuff, then found out at 6 am that for the group work, my groupmates made such a dog**** presentation for their parts that i had to basically overhaul it. i TOLD them what basics need to be added and they just. did not do them.
the worst part was that the presentation was at 7:30 AM and they were just not replying to me. out of sheer exhaustion and stress i just broke down so bad that my boyfriend was surprised, like i cried so loud but had to work while crying because there was so much that needed to be done and i could not afford to waste time crying.
anyway i went to work, and my dumb ass forgot my wallet so i called SOS on so many people, im just glad one friend came to pay for my cab lol.
i entered the lecture hall and i saw my groupmates and they started blaming each other (and then me) for the lacking presentation. they told me they followed one resource i sent and i told them i literally chatted the basics of what had to be added.
come the presentation, by brain was so scattered that i wasnt able to answer the questions from the seniors, and my group mates were not helping me AT ALL. so i stood there like an idiot lmao. and then when i was fixated on presenting, MY LAPTOP FELL and everyone gasped and i screamed and i was basically in tears at that point but i held back so bad because i've embarrassed myself so much in front of like so many people.

i was so sad and stressed and i just refused to talk to anyone today except my parents and my boyfriend. i appreciate them being in my life, they reassured me that in time it will pass and it'll just be a distant memory. my boyfriend took me out to ramen and froyo after everything and i went home and slept for a few hours so im feeling a little better now. but im working graveyard tonight with the same groupmates and like i do not how how to approach them so. yeah. and im pretty sure one of my groupmates is gonna talk **** about me to his frat buddies so i don't know how to deal with that too. lmao

thank you for all the hugs and well wishes, they don't seem much to others but they feel comforting to me. i wish i could do more for the people who cared, you guys are angels and im glad this little corner of the internet exists.

We haven't really interacted and I'm unsure if you wanted a reply, but I'm very sorry to hear about this. All your hard work and it goes underappreciated by your group mates. You seem like a really nice person and it's disheartening to hear you being treated like this by your peers. I hope you'll be able to rest up soon because you deserve it for being such a kind and hardworking person.

Tornado sirens woke us all up at 4am, and Nicholas didn’t go back to sleep. We were about 20-30 mins away from the eye, but it somehow stayed south of us and moved through very fast. With little sleep, today is going to suck.

so hard to find a job nowadays.

 

[Giddy]

As much as I like doing my evening courses - this one being sign language - my work continues to make even harder, whereas never having time to revise, or the next person coming onto shift is ALWAYS an hour late, so I have less time for lunch etc. I have to go earlier to lessons due to buss problems. So, I feel so bad and awful when I can't follow understand the sign language.
I wanted to do one for Graphic Design, but it was two days in the day, and I knew my boss wouldn't change things around so I cen get some normal hours, she won't do that.

so hard to find a job nowadays.

I feel that too. There's more people applying than there is jobs. Been trying for so long too.
I wish you luck with job searches~

Everyone is currently playing the new Disney Dreamlight Valley update but I can't for another few hours because I have to be a nice and mature adult who likes to share things with others aka the TV.
