oh how the time slips away.
I feel like i've been on a perpetual war path for about the last month...oh wait i have. Basically starting Oct 13 i started what was going to be a 39 day stretch of no days off i have to go to work every day! So i just got in the groove and you know started working...it's only 39 days, i'll be fine!....yeah so after about 25 days in a row i was like...hmm i really need to go to the dentist...i should take a day off. So i went to the dentist, they told me i have yet another cavity...and then recommend that i start brushing with like 15 dollar tooth paste. Seriously which is cheaper in the long run? Anyways i have to get that filled on the 23...hate my life! *bang*
So then i go back to work and i'm thinking ok i had a day off now i can finish the next 2 weeks no prob....and then i got sick. Yup started off like my last cold (that i had just gotten over like 2 to 3 weeks prior) it wasn't so bad, a bit of a sore throat and a cough but nothing i can't handle. But then it starts to get worse (no it didn't turn into swine flu) and suddenly i'm congested and blowing boogers like none other. So i took a sick half day this last wednesday...it was rememberance day anyways so i didn't have alot to do. I went home and slept then worked that evening with my practicum student. Back to work the next day....you know nose to the grind stone and all. And then it's friday...and i come to work like and hour and a half late....stay for half the day and say caio cause seriously i need to get over this cold. I called my other job on friday and basically bitched them out for causing this 39 day work week in the first place and i made them give me today off. I mean it's a given i work my normal job 5 days a week monday to friday regardless. Then i do part time work on the weekend for only womens. it's not really hard or anything but you know it would be nice to have some sort of rotation so that certain people don't get stuck working like 6 weekends in a row. I think i'm going to have to seriously consider changing my avaibility or just discuss that days off are important.
But lets not forget my third job...yeah it's exists...i know i'm crazy right? There is a fashion show next week so i'm busy building a few new pieces for my already existing line. i'm also working with a practicum student and so i'm required to do 48 hours of work with her. which means i have to work at sane hours...so like 3am isn't going to work. It it kind of nice having a student though, it's been a growing experiance for me and let's me know that i'm obviously getting some where in my career.....actually i've been thinking if i should try and get a job teaching at the college in the fashion program. Maybe...maybe not. i'd only really want to do the fun classes. hmm something to think on.
Anyways i think i've ranted enough....if anyone actually read all that. Well congratulations. I'm impressed.
