Ugh
Yes. It's 5am. Yes, I'm wide-f*ing-awake at 5am. No, I don't have any earthly idea why.
I hate that I haven't done a lot of posting here. And the next few days are absolutely awful in the getting-anything-done-other-than-work department. Tomorrow I have to go to Monroe (an hour away) to help with a reset .. this -after- learning that they want me to lose 1 shelf in each of my -5- brand centers ... which I don't have enough room for in the first place in my tiny store. Said reset is supposed to last .. 5 hours or so. Whee. Then I have to go to my own store and work another 1.5 hours. Oh wait, lets add that up. 2 hours of driving. 6.5 hours working. Yes folks, I have to work 8.5-f*ing hours on Sunday. Go me. *flop*
Oh, yeah. And lets not forget that I then have to work 3.5 hours Monday .. which wouldn't be bad had I not worked 8.5-f*ing-hours the day before, most of which doing heavy labor. And then on Tuesday, I have two 4-hour calls, one in Pineville which is 30 minutes away.. So that's 9 hours of work. Oh yes. And the following Sunday I have yet -another- reflow to work. In Gastonia. And I still need to deal with my store having inventory that day. And need to find out if I can avoid having the stupid changes done to my brand centers. Because I can't even do that until after their inventory .. if I can even do it then. I've -got- to talk to Donna.
Need I remind you that this is a part-time job.
Let it not be said I am complaining about the paycheck this will result it. I'm not complaining about that. But my body is already wore-out from resetting my own store .. like, done-wore-out. My calves have been sore and clenchy for the last week-and-a-half. (Yes, clenchy is now a word, spellchecker. It means they feel like someone has their hands clenched over them tightly. Fun.) And -nothing- I do has managed to ease that soreness. I walk 2 hours a night, almost every night. I eat well. I take vitamins. I drink lots and lots of water. And I -still- hurt. And it's making me very irritable.
I am however consoling myself in the thought that I just had a $250paycheck, and this next one should be in the $450 range. My car payment is $380, which means I have about $300 already to put towards our Asheville trip for SAFF. And another check after that one, which I can't even begin to calculate the hours for, so I'm not trying. Of course, I will be working -double- calls the whole week prior to that week, so we'll see how I'm doing -after- that. I need to find out how she wants me to be absorbing the drive time for all this shit.
I'm going to go kill things in WoW, and wait for the sun to come up.
Oh yeah. Happy Equinox, everyone.
