My cat was just outside with me in his harness and bit the tip of a day lily leaf before i realized what he was doing. The piece was so small i had no chance to grab it. I did not know that they were focus to cats until looking it up just now. The flowers have not bloomed yet. Should i be concerned? He seems normal.
I’ll make this quick because it’s 3 am and i have work in 6 hours. Yay me!
I just graduated a few months ago with my bachelors degree. I have been planning to attend graduate school in the fall, after which i will be able to pursue my dream career.
During this in between period, i decided to pick up a somewhat easy job just to have some money coming in and what not. My boyfriend got hired as well, at the same time. I won’t go into too my h detail about where exactly we work, but there are so many pros and cons idk what to do.
Pros: free good food almost every shift. Nice coworkers for the most part. Compared to a cashier/desk job, the work is active and more interesting. The drive to work is 10 minutes. My boyfriend and i get to work together.
Cons: the work is interesting, but not fulfilling. The customers are wealthy, pretentious, and rude. I am suffering the consequences of being good at my job, meaning i feel like i am now doing the job of multiple people.
But the biggest issue is the hours. They are insane. 12 hour days almost everyday. I have tried talking to my manager about this, how i have no energy, it is affecting my mental health, and i have had no time to apply to grad school. I was assured it would change. He gave me like two days off that week and then it went back to normal. I am so drained. I miss my pets. I am scared i won’t be able to go to grad school because i have had no time to look into it. I am so depressed.
I love so many parts of this job, but i feel so walked on. I am so frustrated because truly if they just worked with my schedule I would love to keep working. My boyfriend feels the same, as his career has been on hold as well. I truly don’t want to quit but i don’t know what else to do.
The other issue is i feel like they take advantage of me and my willingness to help. I am afraid to even bring this issue up again because they just talk me into a corner and make me feel crazy for needing this change. I just feel so helpless and overwhelmed.
