Today when I went into donate, I was told my protein was at a 4.5 both times and was told that those numbers don’t change overnight so I am deferred for just a week.

In the meantime, I should be making sure I get in plenty of protein and staying hydrated. I’m not exactly sure what happened before I thought I was eating properly prior to coming in.

I feel like it’s time to switch centers anyway but I am going to make sure I do what is suggested because I know octa takes a sample of your blood off to be tested.

But, it is closer to my house and I do want the nww donor bonus but if I go on a Tuesday instead of a Monday, will it flag me in the system? Because, I do know it would’ve been past seven days since I actually donated.

Which was October 1st and I am deferred for an week, which I will wait out and just do what I was told. I am trying to see what are some things I can eat to get my protein up and not fail the spe?

Edited: I just googled my symptoms and It could be because of an underlying condition. I see my doctor on the very end of the month, I’ll ask her about it.

I had to just now respectfully tell my mom that if you knew that you were going to join the meeting on zoom then you should’ve had your tablet or ipad already charged or at least with you in the same room if it wasn’t charged all the way up after she asked me, “ What’s wrong with me? “.

I am not going to stand here and be verbally abused because you’re going through something personal as if everyone else isn’t. But, I know one thing something is seriously wrong with her if she’s been in this cult for almost 40 years.

Just pure ignorance how they can’t see anything isn’t wrong with what’s being done and not even question anything about it. But, I know one thing after I get my certification in phlebotomy.

I am going to keep my job, continue to work part time and get another job that’s allows me to get my sticks in so I can get somewhere that pays more than both jobs combined.

But, I believe that it is fucked up to say something like that to your grown child as if you seriously did any better and getting frustrated when you’re continuously getting lied to all throughout your life and you’re old but got nothing to show for it.

I don’t think I would choose my mom going into another life if I had to do it all over again. I missed out on a lot and always felt left out even when I was regularly going out because I was following behind other people.

I think after this month I am about to go to another center because of a few bad experiences at the current center I am with now. But it’s not related to donating itself, it’s more so with the donors than anything else.

Today, I went earlier on as I had to be at work by 12pm and the whole 45 minutes I stood in line, I was behind a donor that was cracking jokes and being really immature.

It didn’t help that he also had at least four people that was also being engaged in the conversation. I choose to ignore them until I was a target. I didn’t say anything to them because to me they’re just people who had peaked in high school probably twenty years ago.

But, it reminded me of why I didn’t like going to high school. Anyways, I could go back to octa being that it almost been 6 months and I’d probably get paid the new donor fee instead of what I am getting paid now.

Let’s say a person is experiencing a minor setback and isn’t doing too good. They will go on a tangent about how the person doesn’t have Jehovah in their corner and will continue to slip into old habits.

I still cannot believe what I heard last night. I was telling my friend how much it gives off cult vibes despite them denying it and how I left because certain things still wasn’t adding up to me.

I was trying to buy my air compressor for my car this week, if anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated. I can only apple cash because I need the funds immediately.

If I get paid earlier, I can pay my loan back on 9/1.

I kept getting the run around on forms I needed to be completed by the 23rd yesterday if I wanted to keep my job because I require a chair as I get muscle spasms in this one particular leg I broke years ago and if that wasn't bad enough, both of my feet/legs tend to swell if I am constantly standing on them for long periods of time.

They took our chairs last Wednesday, which was the 15th of July and that's when I gave them a doctor's excuse, which in return looked like restrictions and they gave me another form to be completed by my doctor by the 23rd of July, so I had to still go by whenever my primary doctor was in and I couldn't be seen any earlier than the 23rd.

So, I went to this appointment to only be told by ***** from HR that the doctor filled it out wrong and if I wanted my job, I would find a way to get it corrected before the day was over with and by the time I got there.. It was a little bit before 1pm so my doctor had already stepped out of the office and was done for the day.

I knew what was happening before it even happened because my primary is only there part time at the clinic I go to and I figured she wouldn't had been there for me to get it corrected and I was right. I cried in the waiting room because they were trying to come with a solution to have this filled out for me and they sounded so unsure.

Eventually, they did corrected it for me and I did take it back to ***** in HR for her to finally accept it. This was my third time going back and forth within the same month in a short time frame to fill out these forms or get doctors excuses made. I don't even remember being given a hard time when I had to get my license renewed and this was when they wanted everyone to have a star on their license.

My thing is why be a bitch and say you could do this/that when you don't have to. All because I said this is really unfair because I drove to a clinic that I don't stay really close to back to a job that is even further away to see a doctor that is already gone for the day. Is that not valid? I told her, I didn't need this and let me get an extra copy for the form so she can re-do it.

Me talking to you isn't helping my case although she says she is trying to help me and I basically needed to get in touch with my doctor. Anyway, I said this to say that I cannot wait to get my certification and quit this job.

I tried to donate plasma today and it would’ve been higher payout too but they closed at 2:00pm today. My normal days are Tuesday and Thursday, if I come tomorrow, which is a friday.. Will it mess up my days?

That’s exactly what they are doing. I can’t wait to get to a point where I don’t have to deal with the public anymore. I want to be behind the scenes or at least in a role where I don’t deal with them as much.

I got chastised earlier for a computer glitch that was out of my control. I was trying to explain what happened because I didn’t realize what was going on until after the race had went off.

But, dealing with customers like him, is exactly why won’t get my bonus in full. I heard it is 50 percent that they take out of your bonus and I am already wasn’t getting much of anything then.

I probably don’t need to be there because I overstayed my welcome. Anyways I will be glad to start school in the fall and use some of my PTO time closer to the hoildays.

A guest has put a negative review out and come to find out it was about me but she didn't know my name so my supervisor gave her my name and yet decide to share this information with my other co-workers towards the end of the meeting but not with me. I did feel some kind of way about it because she never talked to me one on one about it.

Only thing I told her was my co-workers know more than me about why I was moved from downstairs because I wasn't told directly by a manager yet that it was because I don't smile and don't need to be on the frontline. I am sick of this place and ready to go back to take up phlebotomy classes this fall so I can get a job somewhere else.

I was suggested by this manager that I should go find another job because I can't help customers if I am not okay. (physically or mentally) So, I am about to do that soon after I pass my exam because they're asking a lot of me.

Oh and by the way, my 28th birthday is this Thursday. People have been pissing me off since this Monday. Happy fucking birthday to me!

My mom is having her other knee replacement done this morning and when we went into check in, she listed one of the elders as a emergency contact instead of me or my dad for that matter.

Now, I already know what the deal is about that is. I am not baptized and don’t attend meetings anymore after the JC meeting took place in the beginning of last January.

But, she is definitely a witness first before being my mom. It’s her decision and all but yet you don’t see any elders in the waiting room the day of surgery or helping with carrying her supplies she will need after she goes into recovery.

I don’t mind being here for her but I did ask myself earlier.. Why am I here? I guess, I will break the curse with my own children because I don’t plan on becoming a Jehovah’s witness.

I am trying to get my cat seen ASAP by the vet because her eye is bleeding. I am not sure exactly what to do but try to get her some help before my next paycheck because I am pretty sure it's causing her discomfort, she will still eat and drink water. Even, open that eye but it's better to be safe than sorry in this situation. Anyways, if anyone could help, that would be great.

I was in the middle of sending my dad’s phone number to my mom through text message when I came across this. This was the elder I used to turn in my time to when you used to count everything as if you filled out on a slip but they didn’t “ receive “ it.

I am not gonna lie, that JC meeting I was forced to go to back in January of last year hurt. If it wasn’t for my mom, I wouldn’t had went. I even remember telling a close friend of mine that I was no longer a witness after the announcement was made.

I mean, I was expected to just up and quit my job because it wasn’t up to THEIR guidelines but I been there for four years and I was 26! I didn’t end up quitting but stayed exactly where I was.

I somehow figured that I would always get myself accidentally kicked out. I was just surprised it wasn’t for having a “ worldly “ boyfriend.

I am trying to activate my dad’s phone to only find out that this plan doesn’t work with the phone I bought him although it says straight talk. I don’t know why the hell would the store associate sell me a plan that doesn’t work with the phone.

Had I known to purchase a plan with my card, I’d go that route because this makes no complete sense. I can’t get my money back on this plan because it’s says non-refundable so I am not about to waste my time going back to walmart to only be told no.

I am just really annoyed at the moment, But if anyone would like to buy a basic phone data, talk and text with 1500 minutes, unlimited texts and 100mb, I still have it with me.

If not, I am about to call customer service before I get to work so they can make it work for him but all of this came out of my pocket, I just feel like that’s messed up how $30 I cannot even use is already down the drain.

ETA- Customer service was able to get it fixed for me, being that it was my first time. I know from now on to get the plan where it says $35 and up.

The sales representative from walmart wasn’t helpful at all and was trying to get me to get a phone from him instead where it’s underneath a contract and I just wasn’t looking for one since I already have my own phone.

But, if I was looking to buy a phone, it wouldn’t be from him.

I am trying to get my dad a reliable cell phone so he can call me if his car breaks down. He’s elderly and I worry about him, especially since my mom is having surgery this month and will be away for 3 to 4 weeks.

Plus, I am trying to catch up on our bills. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can repay 6/24.

I went into CSL and noticed how my pay rate went up $5 more dollars but they’re taking out 1060ml instead of 1000ml. Now, I feel a little more tired than I usually feel after a donation.

When I get home, I think I am gonna take a nap.

Hey, I just need $85 for my car’s oil change. I get paid June 10th, which is a Wednesday and am willing to payback $100. If anyone could help me, that would be good.

Not too long ago, I started on zoloft. My dosage is 150mg but I break it in half and take it in the morning. In certain situations where I would be upset enough to cry, I don’t anymore instead my eyes just gets red as if I am tired and I would be pissed off.

The only emotion I can feel is happiness, sadness and irritation. But, my irritability is much worse when I miss a dosage, which I try not to because I can be mean without being properly medicated.

But, I have been lately more motivated, I am starting my classes this fall because I am tired of where I am currently at and think I deserve better. Anyways, I like being on zoloft but I am wondering how it is for others?
