Hey guys,
I feel like I've been a bad LJ friend/poster/stalker/person. So here's a bullet point update on my life.
- Vacation: It was good. My family is well and my friend is happy. Hopefully my mom's side will organize a reunion for next year and I'll start hinting to my dad's sister that we should have one in 2013.
- Family: Nephews are all adorable. Sister is still irritable but seems to like me again. (or at least, tolerate me). Brother in law is awesome sauce and fixed my computer. Mom is wonderful as usual. Brother and wife are nice but I still feel like communications are jammed. Dad is okay but I still dread spending any extended time around him.
- Computer: My laptop decided it hated me and started giving me Disc Read Error during my vacation. Brother in law saved the computer, got me a new hard drive (mom paid) and more memory. He saved the old one and I might try to send it in and see if all my stuff is salvageable but I'm trying not to worry about that. I also bought a new battery, power cord and a cooling pad (with three fans) from Amazon. Hopefully this will increase efficiency.
- Apartment: I keep finding crickets. They're better than roaches or ants. (or spiders *shudders*) but how are they getting in??? Is this an omen or just god making a statement about my life? *silence, crickets chirping*
- Work: Did everyone go crazy when I left? Moral is at an all time low and I swear some of my fellow employees are planning on killing the new manager. I admit that I almost lost it today with him. I've never gotten so anxious, overwhelmed, upset and pissed while at work. I was debating just walking out because I felt very close to bursting out scream and/or sobbing. Luckily the other manager realized I was STRESSED OUT AS ALL F&%$ and had me sit down in the break room til things calmed down. Everyone is bitching about him. He's suspended at least one employee who's been taking issue with him. Hopefully when our Store Manager comes back from her vacation this can all be sorted out but I fear we may be stuck with him.
- P.S.: We also made the Drive Thru 24 hours. Which would be great but my schedule has apparently turned against me. The other managers all understand that I am NOT A MORNING PERSON and rarely schedule me before 11am. But the last two days I've had 8am shifts and am miserable for it. Plus the new manager is trying to cut hours and my other shifts, though later in the day are not 8 hours. This displeases me.
- ECT: And while ranting about work, let me add in that the managers have become lax in giving out breaks. I had an 8 hour shift both yesterday and today but no one ever gave me a break. (they even had me stay later because the annoying manager didn't prepare any money to change out drawers. So they had to count everything before I could leave) Not to mention the registers freaking out on me and messing up my drawer. STRESS thy name is MCDONALDS.
- Other Work: There are a few places near by that are hiring. Hopefully I'll get a second job. (but with what energy shall I use to work there?) And I made it clear to McDs that I want to work the Drive-Thru over nite shift and that I might be taking on a 2nd job. Wish me luck. (I'm still hoping that Disney will let me come back *puppy eyes* or that I find a good paying full time job.
- LiveJournal: I miss all my LJ friends. I swear I used to be better at communicating but I just feel like nothing I say matters. Even my RP muses have entered radio silence. Energy where art thou?
So I think that is all. I might have missed some things but its all I could think of. I have the feeling that this is typed horribly and will make little sense to anyone except me. But if I keep looking over it I may just delete it and not post anything. So here this block of information.
How are all of you?
