So, last week. I bought a new office chair. They shipped it with two left armrests, after a shipping fiasco of them not ringing my doorbell when I was home.
My hours got cut. Drastically. I'm only supposed to work 3 hours a day, 3 days a week. Noone can live off of that, unless you make $50 an hour. And even then, it'll be hard.
I'm sick now. Coughing, phlegmy, pukey, tired, exhausted and sore. The whole she-bang. Looking for a new job, got a couple of interesting ones I'm looking at now. If only they'd pick up their phones.
The Fots has been mad at me for not being able to work. She said I did this in highschool, too. That somehow, I got expelled, and got out before everyone else, when she worked her ass off to get her diploma. I feel guilty about this. Always have. And this is -not- the same.
I don't even have insurance at my job. No health, no dental, just $12 an hour for 1/4 of a week.
