Vent Your Frustrations • Page 12

Sounds good to me lol.

We'll have to see how quickly I get my game back, or it could turn into the match of the century lmao

 

Got asked to come in tonight, twice. Got asked to come in last night. I fucking hate working nights and I've worked so many nights. Too many people called out and my manager says they're desperate for help. It's my day off and I'll end up working 7 days in a row. I am not happy about this. I am extremely irritated. I'm pretty sure everyone else my manager asked said no. Like what the fuck. I hate the work ethic of half the people I work with. Not to mention I've cover people shifts and came in so many times on top of staying late and I haven't gotten a raise in the almost year I've been there. I don't even know they really do raises unless you're a shift lead, which I don't want to be because I'll shoot myself with the people I work with. No one listens. So I get stuck doing everything. I feel bad but I shouldn't have to feel obligated to come in. I come in and something happens. fml. working too many nights affects my diet, which affects my health. I eat like shit and I feel tired as shit all the time and I think I need to go to the doctor but if its my diet I don't want to spend money I don't have on a copay for blood test that will come out normal. My anger knows no bounds

 

It is 95 god damn degrees in this god damn building.

 

I'm not really sure who you work for or how they handle concerns of their employees, but it might really help to arrange a short meeting and just give them some perspective from you end. The part about not receiving a raise is what really sticks out. If you're always the one picking up the slack and responding positively to when extra help is needed, compensation/recognition should follow. If they value you at all, then they should at least consider the well being of an employee.

I know its a lot easier said than done to set up a meeting and express negative things, but its worked out pretty well for me in my past employment. If they aren't willing to help make your life easier while you're going above and beyond as an employee, then they don't deserve your effort.

 

When I worked at sonic I NEVER called out, was ALWAYS on time and never got a raise in the two years I worked there (I wasn't the only one that didn't get a raise), then when things were slow they decided to lay me off, when then escalated into a big hard ship for me.

At my current job, the manager knows some people aren't the best workers, has told me the extra help is appreciated, but it will be great to see it. I don't want to waste my time and energy to help for a couple hours, because like I posted before it never ends up being a couple of hours. Full time job are hard to find and it sucks

 

I never feel like I am smart enough to do my job and waste valuable time I could be improving my skill set. Just upset with myself.

 

It sounds so much like you are working at my old job at a grocery store somewhere in a parallel universe. Every word here was my life for several years. So awful and I absolutely sympathize.

 

96 degrees. Two layers of all black, one long sleeved shirt. Death. Actual literal real life death.

 

I feel really bad for saying no because I know the frustration of being short staffed. But I would like to enjoy my days off and eat a decent meal. I'm at a point of wanting to quit. My manager is cool, but the work ethic of the people I work with is what makes me want to quit. Like I feel I get screwed over because of it.

 

Someone once told me to work hard enough to get your job done but never to full potential otherwise you'll get taken advantage of. Unfort it's true for a lot of places. As soon as they see someone finally putting in a lot of effort who they know will cover or work longer hours, they will seize on that and the rewards rarely result in a raise or promotion it seems

 

This one girl I work with who used to be one of my faves to work with has been pissing me off so much lately. She's acting like she's the only one who works crazy hours, she'll never say no to extra hours but she still complains about it. Today when she came in there was a bunch of shit that needed to be cleaned/stocked from the lunch rush but she just came in and sat down in the server's station and complained about the section she got. Then she left a couple of her tables on the patio unbussed for most of the night and usually I don't mind helping people clean their sections but I refused just cause she's been bugging me so much lately.

 

Idk what I want. I like being a loner with free time cause I really value downtime and chilling. At the same time I get jealous of ppl who are always busy with friends. I get overwhelmed and sad with too much social interaction but a nice happy medium would be good. My BFF has so many friends I rarely see her and my other friends have kids and career jobs and important stuff.

 

I honestly feel like I can't do any normal job correctly, it sounds selfish but it's just not for me. I have trouble doing the most simple of tasks, plus I started a part time job at Gordmans in the stockroom I'm 2 days in and feel like a total idiot, one of the leads is really nice and says I'm doing a good job, but the other is a total see you next Tuesday! She kept getting mad that I was asking so many questions, and it was only my first official day! I dunno I just dread everytime I have to go in, I dread even leaving my son with his grandma. I think perhaps I have serious anxiety problems, but I even procrastinate at doing anything about that, I mean what do I do just go to the institution? I don't even have insurance.

 

When you put conditioner in your hair in the shower and forget to wash it out, then exit then shower and have to go back in...i'm amused by how frustrating this was lol

 

Not really a frustration but don't know where else to post.

I'm at the mall rn, alone and there's too many people and I can't handle it

 

@neptune When in doubt, pull out your phone, but it looks like you already know this haha.

 

It's not the fact that I'm alone, it's the crowds that I can't handle. I'm weird about people looking at me

 

Yeah I get that all the time, too.
When you get a chance, check this out. The first two points of step 2 resonated with me. It's easier said than done, but I think it's helpful.

 

Got around to reading it. Long read may I have to read it in sections next time around. I'll keep these things in mind

 

When I think of ye olde mammoth, I picture that illustration where no one is paying attention to "you." Unless you're actually on stage or there's some other special occasion, odds are no one's really paying attention to you. These particular mammoths are fucking assholes.

 

The mammoth is cute. I wish the had a stuffed animal of it, lol. It's worse for me when I go out in public without makeup. At that point I just want to hide my face. With makeup on, it's a little easier.

 

I really hate working for a living for a machine that my soul wants nothing to do with. It depresses me that this is life.

 

when people don't fix their shitty parking

 

My sister had to get Obama care to avoid that penalty. She had a procedure done and it only paid $100. She just got a bill for $300 from the pathologist. Obama care is a joke.

 

I went to autozone to recycle my filter and used oil. I asked the dude at the counter if they took filters and he asked another guy who asked another guy who laughed and held up a trash can. Hey, asshole, I could have done that at home. I told him I wanted to recycle it as I threw it out and he said some other shit that I didn't listen to.

Just say you don't recycle them. Viola.
Why does this bother me so much.
