Got a substantial raise today, bigger than I would have dared to ask. Also a bonus for having to work with a really obnoxious client of ours.
Plus lots of praise for being an amazing and efficient worker. Feels good.

Tfw you get a call from work telling you that you didn't clock out when you left, but you stayed 45 minutes late, and now you're paranoid they're gonna accidentally screw you out of 45 minutes of work.

Opposite problem. Was supposed to get off from a 5 hour shift. End of shift comes. Random coworker late. I assume this is why nobody is taking over my shift. Late person shows up. Still nobody covers my shift. Ask the manager wtf is up. Apparently there just wasn't anyone coming in till an hour later. So they just made a retarded schedule where I'd just have to stay an extra hour and never told me, even when it came time that I should have gotten off. My job is the worst with writing schedules. Manager on shift was the one who made the schedule. Wtf.

Congrats.


I spent most of the day in bed nursing my right eye. I'm not sure what happened but I woke up and it was bloodshot and had really intense pain in it. I could barely open my eyelids long enough to put whatever that eye medication was in it.

I ended up missing out on two meetings one which was most likely going to be bull**** and boring and the other that was practice for the big rally tomorrow night in my area.

Today:

-Tended to various tedious errands (while writing in between) and stocked up on wine!

-Grocery shopped for about two and a half hours (never, ever go grocery shopping with me. I am so obsessed with food that I am enthralled by everything every single time and take forever to choose.)

-Scored a glow in the dark (!!!!) dinosaur skeleton t-shirt from the boys' section at Wal-Mart; I don't typically wear t-shirts but I couldn't NOT buy it. I wanted to get another TMNT shirt, however the didn't have my size. (I am a child's size XL, fyi.) Sadly there were no Skeletor shirts, as usual.

-Picked up food from my favorite Thai place; while waiting, the two teenage girls at the other table were whispering mean things about me. As usual. Probably because my hair was a disaster (as usual) and I was wearing un unfashionable, ill-fitting plaid wool suspender skirt held together by a safety pin where a button was missing. #ragamuffincouture

I'd just get my own cart, finish without you (as usual), and then incessantly call you from the car until you gave up and left. Or I'd just leave you to teach you a lesson.
