physically, i am in pain. when i woke up at 6AM, mojo was on her back, legs sprawled in the air. pathetic. she didn't even get up when i rose, dressed, and went to the bathroom. if my DOG won't get out of bed when i do, then it is too goddamn early.
clocked in and booked down to starbuck's for some coffee, and on the walk/saunter back to the store it hit me, how sore my legs were. his was five minutes into my 8 hour shift. i, obviously, survived, but it was terrible. my feet just radiate pain, and i've been off work for nearly an hour. the 3.5 hour drive home will probably suck because i'm so sore. but my hell week is over and it's christmas.
sarah told john [our GM] that she wouldn't be able to make it back for her day-after-christmas shift, because her flight is at 11AM and everything is booked solid and that she understands if her job isn't waiting for her but that she doesn't want to quit and he just walked away from her. on my way out, i said bye, and he just glared at me and said "have a happy holiday" in a voice that said "go to hell." grrrreat. just because she's my friend and roommate doesn't make me responsible for her. i've spent all week trying to help her figure out a way to see her family AND make that shift, and trying to convince her to talk to john earlier [which would've been fruitless], it's not like i was encouraging her to walk away. but john doesn't operate like that. he better though, or i'll walk. i'm not going to be held responsible for someone else's actions. i understand why sarah couldn't work on the 26th and i understand why john would have to fire her. it has absolutely nothing to do with me.
ok, gotta pack up the car and go home.
here's to staying awake for my entire ride home, eh?
