Hi everyone. If you don't want to read this I completely understand. I just had to vent somewhere. hubby is currently sleeping. I don't want to stress him out either. These past couple of days have been really hard on me. I was telling Lara on here that in a comment I made to her post. Now I am going to take a little time to explain before I end up cutting and having a darn panic attack.
I still have this on going schedule battle going on with my department manager. He has purposely been scheduling me to close every single sunday just because I can't close on saturday night. I can close 3 days a week. I just wanted him to make me a mid or open on a sunday just once in a while but he is refusing to do so. I went to talk to HR about it and she said he had the right to that. I think it is messed that out part timer gets to be open or mid on weekends although she closes during the week so do I. Why is some 20 hour week coworker being catered to over me. I mean I broke down and started crying in the office because I have worked for this company back home and the managers at that location are no where as selfish and mean as the ones here. I told the HR manager that too.
On to the next thing. This one I am trying to figure out if it is even worth talking about. I have actually been going on job interviews. So yay for that. For some strange reason these recruiters will not send an email or return a phone call to tell one that they did not get the job. I am more so mad about that than not getting the last job I interviewed for. Which I should have gotten with the experience I have but whatever. If they can't even respect me by sending a decline email I don't need to be working for them.
The last thing is this community college I have been trying to get into day. I am seriously on the verge of sinking into a depression and this crap was not helping. I mean I was in the parking lot crying. Okay now I am transferring from college to a community one. They were trying to make me take a placement test so I disagreeing with that at 1st. Then I had this other one explain to me why I needed to take it and then that made more sense to me. So I was fine with that. The other thing was they were telling me they were not sure if they would except my credits. Why would I sign up to go to your school if you are not going to take my credits? So I told them I would wait until they looked them over.
Turns out they will not review my credits until I signed up for classes. I was told I could file paperwork to have them review my credits sooner. Well not sure if that was a lie or not but now they are telling me no they only review your credits if you sign up for classes period. *shake my head* I don't know why they are making this hard. Just review my credits and give me an yes or no. I know they have lot's of students but you are asking me repeat more than half of my required classes if you do not take my credits. I also spent 23k in loans and you are trying to not except my classes. No no no.
I just feel like life is trying to beat the heck out of me. I am trying to stay positive and focused but these people I have been dealing with as of lately are rude, selfish, and just have no respect for me or what I am saying. Yeah we all have a job to do but show me some respect.
Okay I feel a little better. The blade looks less temping. Going to grab a snack and go to sleep......

I'm so sorry I haven't responded earlier, its just that I feel so depressed and without any energy at all. Please don't cut.. don't do that to yourself..
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine how hard it all is, and everything at the same time, but at least you are not alone,you have your husband and support..and of course all of our support..
Just don't hurt yourself, it will get better for you..and take care xx
It's okay Lara. I noticed you have been busy and not on as much. I didn't it. I made it. It was tough too.
DeleteYes it totally felt like everything is going badly at once. At the moment I am looking for another school to go to. I hope to find as affordable like the community college I am having to turn down.
I feel better after filling out 3 apps.
I'm sorry this is happening to you. I can imagine how hard it is. But hang in there and try to keep a positive outlook, for yourself. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the support, and no, you're not crazy. Some profs are like that (unreasonable). But I really can't complain about the Phil. one, she even gave us two detailed outlines of what to study for the exam. But I was looking for jobs instead of studying (no reply from anyone, though). :(
Best of luck with the community college.
*Hugs*

Thank you.
DeleteI could have passed one class I took earlier this year but I was tired and didn't give two craps what they were talking about. So I failed out of the class.
I just finished up 3 apps and I am going to be filling out more. My eyes are getting tired. i hope you hear something soon.
Yeahhh kind of giving up on that school and looking for the next one.
*hugs* I so needed that
I'm so sorry you're having such a hard time. Your bosses sound horrible, they shouldn't be treating you like that, after all you do for that job they should treat you with a lot more respect.
ReplyDeleteI hope you find a better job at a proper company who reply to you and get their deadlines sorted.
As for the college stuff, that sounds so stressful, I wish there was something I could do to make it easier for you.
Take care darling and stay strong, things will get better.
Awwww your response was totally cute.
DeleteYeah my job actually doesn't respect any of the employee's except the kiss ups instead of the hard workers.
Yeah the company that didn't return my call or email after the interview. It kind of worked out. I think I scared the lady with my awesomeiness. As I stand in my pride on this blog, think of how I sound during a interview. Yeah they know I am about my business so anyone doing things they should not or doesn't want to be shown up. They will not hire me.
Yeah college is stressful enough as it is. Sad part is I am going to need to find a good paying job by December or get into school by January to keep from paying back on my school loans which my current job.....that pay.....yeah I would be so broke.......
Hey Winter, hang in there hun. It's disrespectful that companies don't follow-up after an interview, but the right job will come along for you, it's just a matter of time :)
ReplyDeleteCan you sign up for your classes to make them check your credits and then withdraw if that school won't accept them? I hope you work something out, sorry to hear you so stressed. Take care.

They will only look into my credits after a completed semester so sadly I wouldn't even be able to do that. Not a bad ideal though. I am also paying for these classes out of pocket so for me to fork over 300+ dollars and then not continue going there kind of pisses me off. Don't worry I am still in process of looking up other schools.
DeleteAs for the job thing, yeah apparently a lot of companies are doing this. This has happened to me before. Unless it's some new system I don't know about but I think it is rude. I have been applying to other jobs and updated my resume on monster.com. I hope someone with an hourly job will call me. I tend to get these commission based job offers. No thank you.
I feel a little better today. Bloated but okay. Gotta go to the store and pick me up a can of peanuts. That is my go to snack at the moment. They do have a lot of fat but darn it they satisfy me and keep me from eating junk.
Oh mah gad, the first girl is beautiful, I wish I looked like that.
ReplyDeleteSorry.. sidetracked...
Hang in there lovely, things will get better
<3
I think you are talking about the girl with the hat on. Yeah I love that picture.
DeleteYeah I get that a lot. Hang in there, everything will get better. After hearing it for 3 years straight and seeing no results of things getting better( besides my weight ) you kind of start to not believe it will get better.
