I mean, it's pay Friday, I'm going into a three-day weekend, someone gave me a free pumpkin almond latte this morning, a resident who was really sick and I was really worried about is healthy and hanging out up here by my desk again...and then it all started going downhill from there.

One of my coworkers, who I consider a friend, came in and was kind of snippy about the state of my desk. She's just recently been promoted to a supervisory position (not over me) and her attitude has changed considerably. Granted, it's probably just the stress of the new position, which has a lot more responsibility, but still. She's never said anything like she said this morning before. It wasn't rude, it was just...kind of out-of-character and bossy.

Because it's pay-Friday, I'm the one who hands out the checks. That would be the checks that are not here yet, because 'weather' according to home office. Their tracking number isn't telling them anything. I keep getting phone calls and coworkers coming in and bitching at me even though I have no fucking control what-so-fucking-ever as to when or how the checks arrive. And then I'm emailing with corporate, and all they just keep saying is 'Is it there yet?' and 'We're trying to track it.'

Then just about 15 minutes ago, one of my coworkers (another friend) on another floor had a bad seizure. She's had them before, but apparently this was a really bad one and she stopped breathing for two minutes. The ambulance was called and they wheeled her out there and were sitting there for about 10 minutes they're just now driving away. No sirens though, so I guess that's good, it means she's stable. But now all my coworkers and I are all worried and down and just...not pay-Friday-happy anymore.

Want to share your crappy day too? Or your good day? Or...whatever? I just can't brain right now...

Ugh I know the feeling of being yelled at for things out of your control. I work in online pick up myself and they usually give projected due by dates, however there's also official email sent out confirming arrival of items so you know 100% its there. We get people coming in yelling about how its due x day why isn't it here, we're ruining theirblives and days ect ect. Where we live has two major mountain passes and well snow kinda delays it and the people don't consider it or want to hear it. So yeah I get the whole being yelled at when you aren't in control thing. Its just arggggh

Sorry for your crappy day... I hope it gets better!

My bad day was yesterday... it was a doozy. We have been staying at the home of my husband's brother and sister-in-law this past week. They were out of town but the brother said we could stay there and spend Christmas in Florida (We live in Tennessee, my daughters live down here in Florida).

So last night, they got back from their holiday trip... and it turns out the brother never told his wife we were staying at the house! She was... unamused. It was awkward as hell. She let it go pretty quickly, said she just did not want to discuss it, and our evening wasn't unpleasant... she wants us to stay until the 2nd.

The kicker is... she still has no idea we cooked Christmas dinner here, had my daughters over, etc etc. I am a ball of nerves, waiting for the poo to hit the fan :/

Ugh that sucks, especially since it's out of your control.

I had a bad month in general. I've gotten evicted, I've had several mental breakdowns, and I haven't been able to celebrate Christmas because I'm writing the final project for my bachelors degree until January 8th. I did celebrate Christmas Eve, which resulted in another mental breakdown. On top of that I'm super stressed because my writing isn't not progressing fast enough because of all the breakdowns, and I'm seriously thinking of skipping New Years as well just so I can write more. To top it off, it might be payday today, but this money has to stretch for at least two months, as I'll be unemployed by next "payday".

So you could say my life is a bad day right now. And when I tried to submit this the first time, the site crashed. It only seems fitting.

I'm so sorry you're going through all of that. But you're still getting your bachelor's? Even with being evicted? And the mental issues? Shit, I'd say that's pretty damn amazing, right there. I totally feel you on the writing though. I feel the same way about my drawing. I just want to draw and get things done and then...I don't.

Thank you, I find it pretty challenging as well, but as far as I see it, it's a chance to achieve a big success in the middle of all this garbage. I know that feeling too, I'm very good at procrastinating (which is essentially what I'm doing right now) and it's .. not good haha.
