Grrrr!!!!

Why am I always exhausted early in the evening but don't want to go to bed that early (like 7:00 pm) but when I do wait for a reasonable time to go to bed I can't sleep? I hate it! Every time I turn over to go to sleep my mind starts going and I can't sleep. I have to be up in less than 7 hours to take Chewy to the vet (he is getting neutered) and then I have a stupid counseling session for my SATOP program. I know I can come home and go back to sleep but I want to sleep now. I don't want to feel like shit in the morning.

Work is always on my mind. That place is stressing me out so bad. We have no help. Everyone is quitting. I don't know if our hiring manager is just being lazy and not hiring people or if people just aren't applying but we are hurting BAD! I was a cashier but since my knee is messing up again I am on light duty so I've been working in the phone center. I was supposed to get knee surgery on the 14th but now that I'm pregnant, I can't. All I do is answer phones and do computer work. Lately they are always asking me to be on a register and do the phone center at the same time which is a pain in the ass when we are really busy. For the longest time I was picking up a ton of extra hours to help them out but I was the only one doing it. None of the other cashiers would help out. I'm not doing it anymore. I'm tired of helping them out and getting nothing in return. I've been getting bitched at for sending phone calls to the departments. Okay people! That is my job! "Why can't you check first to see if they need a price and look it up for them? We are too busy Julie" You know what, fuck you! Believe it or not I get busy too. While I'm on the phone trying to look stuff up in that crappy system (which is impossible by the way. Any key words you type in never brings up what you are looking for) I've got phone calls getting backed up and then I get bitched at for them having to wait. I'm sorry but if a customer calls wanting to talk to the lumber department, sorry, but that is where I'm going to send it. That is another thing that pisses me off. Each department has their own phone but they never fucking answer it or they don't come and get it at the beginning of ther shift. I usually have to page them 3 times on the loud speaker before they pick it up and even then they don't pick it up. You wanna know why? Because we don't have enough people. When someone goes to lunch half the time there is no one esle in that department. That place is turning into a joke. Saturday night after 7:00 pm we had no one in lumber, kitchen and bath and millwork. UNACCEPTABLE!!! I'm tired of getting yelled at by customers that we don't have enough help. Yeah! Okay! Tell me something I don't know! What the hell do you want me to about it?!? When we don't have enough cashiers; managers; STEP THE FUCK UP!!! That is what you are there for. Help us out a little bit please.

Believe it or not I do love my job but I would love it even more if we would have the help we need. I mean it is absolutely rediculous. There is no excuse for this. They have been firing people or "letting them go" before we have the coverage we need. We only have like 11 cashiers left and that is not acceptable.

The bad thing is I might have to quit. My stress level is way too high which is not good for me or the baby. I had to quit taking my Zoloft (which helps keep me sane) I'm quitting smoking, had to give up my coffee and my hormones are just totally out of whack. I'm not sure if I am going to be able to handle it. I mean, coming off my Zoloft has ben really hard. I'm emotional; I have like zero patience at the moment. I'm just afraid it is going to be way too stressful for me there. If we had the help I would be fine. I don't know what I am going to do.
