Chag sameach (now someone find me a chair)

Apr 16, 2011 00:54

I work in a largely Jewish community (at a Shoppers as a cashier) so the upcoming holiday means that my hours have been upped to almost 40 a week instead of a pitiful 16-24! Which is great! Matzah and Kedem grape juice for everyone!

Only thing is I'm at a point where I've realized I can't spend that much time on my feet. I'm in charge of all the housework and baby care during the day, then I go to work for 7 to 8 hours, get home around 12:30AM-1AM, and try to cram in a little time for myself before I pass out and do it all over again.

I know, wah wah, responsibilities, someone give me a cookie and a blankie. But at the weight I'm at, standing for that long after already having a busy day has become... almost impossible. I'm having to take more and more "bathroom" breaks just to go sit in the stall and rest my feet for a few minutes, and even then the pain in my ankles and legs and back brings me to tears sometimes.

So either I find a job where I can sit down, or lose around 250 pounds in the next 24 hours. :\

Cuz I can't do this shit anymore.
