I know I'll be okay eventually but my self destructive thoughts are pretty intense.

7-hour Black Friday shift, and I couldn't tell by that, but I may be the only one in my department all day. So much for her getting more hours than I do! I can't articulate how much this is going to suck.

Yes, that was totally my fault. But, in my defense, I looked, thought you were going the other way until I was already behind you, and that at least one of you SAW me. As the trainer and the second pair of eyes, I'd hold her responsible too.

Really have to start looking up the starting pay before I schedule interviews. Now I have to drag myself in there for a job that pays practically nothing.

Re: Screaming thread. - December 2nd 2021, 02:26 AM

I want to blow off Friday so bad. I only picked up tomorrow because it's short, but working 6 straight will always suck and add an interview for a job I no longer want and I just don't want to.

I've been awake on purpose for 12 hours now. That doesn't include the many hours of sleep I didn't get last night. Despite 2 cups of coffee, I'm exhausted.

I feel like this is going to be a waste of time like the last one was, and I still have to work afterwards. I can already tell they're a disorganized mess and they don't pay. I don't want to fucking do this. It's too stressful on top of a normal work schedule. If I'd known I was getting my hours back for awhile, I would've waited.

these feelings are so strong, so confusing, so destructive for me and everybody else I am hurting. I wish I could disappear instead of having to handle everything. This is too much for me to handle. I just want these thoughts and feelings to stop. Somebody please stop them. I think the only way for them to stop is if I am not alive. I want to be in peace.

I did the best I could with the time I had. I assume most of it is wrong, but it's at least close(er) to what it should be. Have fun fixing it tomorrow.

I did fine, so either she's being nice or they've undone all the work I did for years purely out of spite. 6 days in a row sucks already and now it's the weekend.

First time in 4 years I went off on somebody. But, I was provoked. If you come at me screaming, then insult me and continue to glare at me, I'm NOT going to be nice to you. and you're DAMN right that I didn't want to help you, you were both complete assholes the entire fucking time. Obviously you were made for each other.

I don't give enough options, and I'm wrong. I give more options, and I'm still wrong. This is the issue with micro managing - nothing's ever going to be done exactly how you want it to be.

Well, I knew I was going to get screwed, and everyone else's hours got cut like crazy, but losing 13 hours a week is a bit much. It slows down every year, but not that much. My guess is they hired too many people at the super high starting rate and now either don't have enough hours to go around, or don't want to pay. I can always get out.

I shouldn't, and I know you're not one to mean it that way; but I feel judged by that.
