#10 fucking 10+ hour days in a row.

[bigfishthemusical]

I am so upset about this stupid fucking strike plan that would be illegal if I was fucking employed and then the carp lead who slept in and missed the meeting won’t stop grilling me about it. Dude I will shove you off the mezzanine balcony.

#I am so evil right now #literally this morning I was thinking about how I just have to hold out until Sunday and on that day I’ll get off at 5:30 #but now it’s 9:30. I’m going to die. I will die. I will #10 fucking 10+ hour days in a row.

[felizusnavidad]

so tired, so sleepy

#there will be no hamilton lyrics post today but i'm gonna answer two asks tomorrow #i'm just... fucking exhausted #working my fourth night shift in a row & i barely even get any sleep & i think i have a crisis today #and the problem is that i really like this job but i feel like i have literally no life #last month was crazy #i am always at work i fear #i barely get 4 hours for myself each day & it's only because i literally force myself to get up when i should be resting #because there's another night shift ahead #and i don't want to sleep all day so #idk #i want to cry #working 10 hours each night is probably not good for my health even if it's a well paid job #but sincerely can you hear me?*

[fingertipsmp3]

One thing about me is I will buy myself treats I literally do not deserve because I didn’t do anything whatsoever

#so you know that job interview i had today? yeah i cancelled it #i looked at reviews for the company and they had legit HORRIBLE reviews on both glassdoor and indeed #and so many of them and so recent that i was like. i can’t discount this #plus the fact that i don’t even really want to work in this field… like why would i do this to myself #scheduled to work 10 days in a row; back to back 12-15 hour shifts #for MINIMUM WAGE are you actually shitting me. i think the fuck not #you know what my last job was? making coffee. you know what i got paid? 50p an hour above minimum wage. you know what my shifts were? #4-8 hours. you know how many days i worked in a week? 4-5. you know how many breaks i got? lots #i rest my fucking case #(breaks were unpaid lol and i didn’t get much holiday or sick pay but you can’t have everything!) #i also saw like… management is rude; disorganised; disrespectful etc and i was like okay. that’s not going to go well #i mean there is something very wrong with me so i’d more than likely end up being about thrice as rude to management. but still #anyway. the treats! i ordered myself a new leather jacket because idk i don’t care about my credit score i guess #i also bought a lot of chocolate. like a lot a lot. they didn’t have my favourite ice cream so i compensated #by raiding the christmas display and also buying sweets and cookies and aero bars and THEN i noticed they had chocolate yoghurt on offer #so i obviously had to buy those. i did also buy the necessities #well i didn’t buy cheese but honestly i was too bamboozled by the display and the fact that they only had mild cheddar and light cheddar #and lightER cheddar which? 🧐 just buy milk at that point man #so basically if you need me i think i am going to eat haribos and play my game #there will be other job interviews. i literally have one next week. the one today was just not it #personal

Lost my second game of yarn chicken in one evening. This is fine.

#it's the stupid fucking thing I am making for work #(and no it's not finished yet get off my fucking back) #I ran out of the cream first when I was 10 sc short of the first row of the border #and the shop is actually out of that shade and I know for a fact it hasn't been reordered #so I had to snip bits off my tails and get to the end one stitch at a fucking time #and now I have run out of the yellow yarn 28 crab stitches shy of the end of the round #which isn't as big if a deal because we still have the yellow at work #but ugh #annoying and not a great cap to a very upsetting day #my manager was like 'What happened to the crochet? Just bring in whatever you have done and finish it at work tomorrow' #just as I was leaving today #so I finished sewing the last seam this evening and got (most of) the horder done #the plan being that I was letting on that I just had to weave in ends #but I guess the new cover is that I ran out of yellow and forgot to book another ball out of stock #but y'know #whatever #this fucking display will probably last longer in this workplace than I will #I want to set it on fucking fire #not least because I have had to have it in my fucking lap for hours this evening #during a fucking heat wave #werq bitch

I am a notoriously dumb fuck today, seems to me.

Have to collect some saliva for tests.

Was told to do this "Immediately After Waking Up If You Wait Ten Minutes It Won't Be Correct!!!1"

The next one goes in 30 minutes and the next one in 60. And then not to go back to sleep for the whole day, and then do one before going to sleep in the evening.

Chew on the cotton for 1-2 minutes, put it in the tube, write down the time. Simple, yes? No!

Woke up, tried to contemplate did I actually wake up or not yet, got scared it's taking too long, grabbed the cotton, start chewing on it like a good boi I am, took the phone to write the time - turned out I was sleeping for only two hours, it not the morning yet.

Freaked out that I fucked up the tube, went to frantically google where to buy a new one, while deciding should I just go for it and call it a morning, when came back to my senses turned out I was chewing on the cotton for 20 minutes now.

The test is for stress hormone. (ba dum tss)

#well I am stressed all right! #good news is there's a lab nearby that might sell me one #so my good researcher won't be inconvenienced after all #why couldn't I just sleep for my eight hours like a normal person? #(because I'm not one) #you're supposed to collect it on weekend #when you're not stressed by the work and alarm clock #so I can't put an alarm on to signify the morning for me #and how should I know if it's morning or not without lying around for much more than 10 minutes? #I'll ask this later when I get the replacement tube thingy #wouldn't like it to fuck this up for second day in a row

this assay is so fucking fake......

#same one ive been working on for like 3 months. every other assay ive trained on took me a couple goes to get but ive done this one ~45x #and i keep getting 2 good runs and then 1 fail. which SUCKS bc i need 3 passes in a row to sign off on it #and its so sensitive that changing even tiny things like using a different brand same volume beaker. or a 0.5cm longer flea #anyway i had another 2 good runs this week so this was my 3rd but bc its a friday afternoon im tired as fuck and keep making dumb mistakes #like overstirring it + one of my samples leaked which is soooo embarrassing bc ive already had to ask for more before bc its taken me- #almost 50 fucking attempts already #anyway. hour and a half into prep and im at the most crucial time sensitive part which is pipetting thr enzyme into the substrate #and i manage to do it all w even time spacing (u have to replicate the exact same pace at the end of the timer or it doesnt work) #and then realise id picked up a different identical model pipette that was set to half the volume i was meant to put in FUUUUCK #by that point i was like fuck it im almost 2 hours in and nothing else to do the rest of the day. so ill work around it + see what happens #i figured well its half the volume. so if i add the same half volume again at the 5 minute mark and leave it for 12.5 instead of 10 mins #then itll hydrolyse the substrate to the same degree. IN THEORY in practice this stuff never works bc of error margins etc #bearing in mind this js like 30 seconds of thought bc it took me a couple mins to realise what i did #but the thing abt working in a lab is u make these split second decisions constantly bc everything is so time sensitive #so u have to be quick thinking on ur feet #anyway long story short got to the end of the 3 hour process. which i was carrying out v sloppily bc the chances of it working were- #slim by that point lmao. but lo and behold it was completely fucking fine. all cvs less than 5% and averages <5% of spec #which is awesome bc it means after THREE MONTHS and like. 45x3 whats that AT LEAST 135 HOURS OF FOCUSED TIME ON IT #not counting attempts i gave up on halfway thru bc id alreaady fucked them up bad #i can FINALLY sign off on it lmfao. but im just so mad like why does it play these mind games with me. it shouldnt have worked #whatever chemistry is such a fickle stupid science. anyway wahoo weekend time baby #gorgeous weather here + im gonna get pizza on the way home...... maybe life doesnt suck sometimes 😇 #mutuals if ur still at work stay strong soldiers #.diaries

I would so much rather die than go into work tomorrow

#chloe shush #my body hurts worse today than it did yesterday #and ugh I won't have a day off TILL NEXT FUCKING WEDNESDAY 😭 #6 days in a row being in that building for 10 hours is my personal nightmare just based on the fact that I am #positive we'll be busy AND i have to train someone. #I did however get my paycheck and was excited to see $780 in my bank account ‼️ #I was NOT excited to remember its all gonna go down the drain for my bday and concert anyways

[mercedesmone]

this is how im feeling

help

#this is my 6th 10 hour day of work in a row and i have 2 more to go #well both will probably be more than 10 bc they hate me #+ i have been about to fucking murder one of my coworkers <3 #im struggling #i need therapy #and drugs

[selfconsumerofmywoes]

why do all the linked room directions on my uni calendar all assume i’m at the building?? like no directions should include information about where the actual building is amongst the 100+ buildings

#like no i will not turn left at the main entrance i don’t know where the building is on earth #oh i’m sorry i didn’t assume i needed to go inside one of the houses on this street for my lecture #because everyone of course will assume they need to go in a fucking terraced house #pros: all my lectures are back to back so my day will be over in 3 hours max #cons: i have literally no time to get to my lectures because i’m going to be running around campus building hunting in this madness #i’m going to go a few days early and start my hunt #if it’s more than a 10 minute walk between two lectures though i’m just going to skip one #i refuse to do the walk of shame #also some of the rooms only have entrance doors on the seat rows #so like if there’s someone sitting on the end of all the rows by the doors you can’t get in unless everyone shuffles down #and that’s a hullabaloo i’m not causing #i talk and its probably something weird

Holyyyy shittt they were NOT lying abt minimum wage customer service jobs being Hell On Earth!! Achievement Unlocked: Baby's First Breakroom Breakdown

#spoiler: I got woken the fuck up again #I am not coherent enough for this shit and I need a drink #I don’t drink often but I like feel like I’m dying #but also I still work tomorrow at ass cracking dawn o’clock so no alcohol for me #gonna stuff my face with Chinese and attempt to sleep for about 10 hours straight again #my parents know I have been having issues with my insomnia and that this is the second week in a row I’m working 6 days #and I told them to just pls let me sleep so #I’m not sure why they thought it was appropriate to wake me up twice 🙃 #especially since I keep telling them don’t wake me up just let me sleep #‘oh but you won’t sleep tonight!’ yes I will #my body is crashing and it’s crashing hard #pls I just want to rest

first 10 hour day baby!!!!!!!!!!

#personal #damn i’m really gonna work 4 10s #everyone keeps telling me what a steal that is and honestly three day weekend after tomorrow is agreeing #but it’s a little intimidating #especially with the fact we’re supposed to take calls till the last minute #which could mean ur shift ends at 4 or maybe it ends at 6 #so like accounting with travel my days are like. 11 to 12 hours and then if i get stuck on a call after word #i could realistically have 14 hour long work days mutiple days in a row #not saying that it would or that exact length maybe it’s ten minutes maybe it’s 3 you never know #but i did for the last 10 of my shift say okay. i’m peeing. and then oop last 3 minutes? computer update #but you know what even with today being like -bad- i walked out pretty chill #like sensory wise outside of the noise of people all talking loudly it’s pretty chill #i was so annoyed today cause i moved from my usual chair and desk and i had to deal with so much sunlight and an exposed back and oh my god #i got spoiled #i have a tiny but comfortable space mostly enclosed and i don’t have to be near or look at people im working with #and half the time during the job it’s literally me going like hey im gonna work on this for a bit so it might be silent on my end but if #you need anything i’m still listening! *silence while working for 45 minutes straight* *some of that is waiting for further assistance or #just waiting and scrolling ur phone and eating a snack* #like don’t get me wrong some calls are god awful. every sales rep and IT whatever the fuck that calls needs to kill themselevs #except skkyler he was amazing and my best friend #or oh god this fucking call today #i worked on it for like half an hour AFTER the call #i kept getting mixed messages at every level of this thing and oh my god i wanted to DIE #and this internal assistance guy on another call was so vauge i wanted to die. #i didn’t even want to transfer the call but after the fifth time of me jumping back at the customer with some shit i confirmed with him #he’s like oh yeah no the other one and when i’m like this one here thag im reading yes? do this? and hed be like yes then AGAIN it happens #but awesome the internal tech call where the guy just straight up was using the wrong app and wanted to check he had a camera #so fucking funny and i didn’t even tell him he realized right after i got his call

#i didnt even know a hip COULD give out what the hell #it hurts so fucking bad #standing sitting or laying down doesnt matter every five minutes i get 7.5/10 level pain in my hip #its fucking nuts #its been happening nonstop since yesterday afternoon #going to sleep was a pain in the ass let me tell you #i'm seeing my occupational therapist tomorrow and shes not my physio but she can help with a plan of action for that #i also have to tell her about the osteoarthritis (its so nice to have an answer finally) #im pretty sure my hip pain is related to that too because yeah having osteoarthritis in only one pair of joints happens #but i have pain in all my joints so you have to wonder #how much of it is osteoarthritis? #and is it bad enough to show on a regular xray yet? or do i have to do more mris? #i would very much prefer not to do more mris i cant handle 5 hour drives and doing it two days in a row fucking destroyed me #hey holy shit its been ten minutes since my hip last acted up #NEW RECORD

[nothingweirdhere]

#to be fair i did volunteer to work the extra half hour #they don’t let me work overtime but i had a couple days off sick this week so they let me stay a bit late tonight #i’m mad at one of the sous chefs tho #cuz last week i was like 6 hours into my shift and i asked if someone could cover me for like 10 minutes (hadn’t taken a break yet) #so i could eat n he was like hmmm organize your station more first #then i got asked to do like 10 different things in a row and by the time i got thru it i only had like an hour left so i just said fuck it #and didn’t bother taking a break #then today i’m 7 hours in like yo can i have someone cover for FIVE MINUTES so i can sit down and swallow my sandwich whole #and he’s like remember what we talked about last week? #so i just went to eat my sandwich without having someone cover lmao #(on fridays for the last two hours of my shift there’s another dishwasher working with me) #(so whatever he said he’d be fine for the five minutes) #(if it hadn’t been friday tho that would’ve been another day with no break lmao) #compare this guy to one of the other sous chefs #who once told me ‘the dishes never stop. don’t bother trying to clear them first—just take your break and we’ll get you caught up after’ #love that guy #jx.txt

'Basketball Wife'

"Back the fuck up, thank you." - Miles G. Morales Earth42!Miles Morales x Booksmart!Reader TWs: Cursing, n I think that's it Ingredients: Sugar, kisses, and a lil bit of smiles! W/C: 980? A/N: This was another request that I rlly loved working on! Enjoy luvs ꨄ

You and your boyfriend, Miles, had been dating for around 10 months or so. He didn't have the best reputation with the faculty, skipping out on certain classes, having the lowest participation score out of most of the students, and overall wasn't a very happy camper. It's not like his grades were bad, oh hell no! He just wasn't a very optimistic person and opted to fade into the background of most people's lives. Which for some reason had the opposite effect, inducing random girls and, very very rarely, boys to throw themselves at him just to say 'I know Miles.'

Now when he decided to join his school's basketball team, shit only got worse for him. He used to eat his food in the lunch room until a pool of girls decided to sit near him in an attempt to snatch his attention. This obviously pissed Miles off even more, pushing him further back into the shadows and closing himself off even more from the people around him. So he decided to eat in the library. It was empty for the most part, with about 5 students eating together and talking, one of them being you. There you sat with your group of girls, chatting away about random topics, ignoring the rather aggressive slam of the library door. For you, it was just another lunch before you went back to your classes.

As you skipped to your 5th-period class, you parted ways with your friend Kayla as you prepared to be assigned the 2-person project your teacher had gone over yesterday. You obviously weren't a fan of work, but you were excited regardless to choose your partner. So when class got started and the teacher announced he would be ASSIGNING your partners? Honey, you were pissed off. The class erupted full of irritated groans and 'Oh my god's as he listed off the names, choosing the oddest combos you'd ever heard in your life. He called your name, and then Miles as you rolled your eyes slightly. Really, you wanted to be with your best friend Amai, but you didn't have much of a choice, did you?

When the teacher finished reading off the list of pairs, everyone scattered across the room to sit next to their partner. So you moved accordingly, scooting your desk over to Miles's with a couple of noisy scrapes. He wasn't exactly rude, just didn't really seem interested. You really didn't feel like explaining what you wanted to do to someone who wasn't listening, so you just decided to compromise.

"Look, we don't have to talk at all, but at least come find me today so we can work on this project. We don't even have to speak, just correct something or write notes on the slides."

So you met every day for the next 2 weeks in the library, with Miles gradually warming up to you as you spent more time together. He went from saying 2-3 words a day to you to having full-fledged debates on random topics. Even when the project was over, he still hung around. Inviting you to watch him practice for his games, putting you on his cfs story on insta, and stationing you in the front row every time he had a basketball game without fail. So it wasn't necessarily a surprise when he asked you out.

You snuck around together for the next 10 months, not really wanting to deal with questions about each other. You had grades to keep up, and he didn't want to attract any attention. Spending minimal time together during school hours but hanging out in Miles's dorm or his house after hours, spending countless nights in each other's arms. He asked you to come to yet another one of his basketball games, to which you happily agreed to make an appearance.

You sat on the benches as you silently cheered for Miles, giving him discreet little heart signs and blowing tiny kisses in his direction every now and again. He winked at you, and no sooner than he did you heard a girl behind you begin to blab on.

"Bitch he winked at me! Oh my god!"

You felt a vein in your temple tense, exercising all of the strength in your body to not turn around. She stepped down a row, sitting slightly close to you as you watched her wave frantically, which Miles ignored. The game went on for about another 45 minutes, with Home scoring the winning shot. The court erupted with loud cheering, you had that same amount of school pride as you yelled along with the crowd. As the team celebrated in the middle of the court, a few players walked over to whoever was important to them in the crowd fixed on the benches.

Miles made a quick glance at you before briefly nodding backward, indicating for him to follow him to the back like you would usually do. Just as you were getting your stuff ready, that dumb bimbo quickly hopped up to grab at his arm. He wasted absolutely zero time in pushing her off, giving her a rather stern "I have a girlfriend. Back the fuck up, thank you." with a grimace that said nothing but pure disgust. He jogged up to you, pulling you from the front of the bleachers and pulling you into a deep kiss. A couple people perked up at the action, watching as two people who seemingly didn't even know each other casually kissed in the middle of the court.

Bitches were mad that day, their delusions coming to a very sharp halt as the reality of Miles's girlfriend smacked them like a backhand from Floyd Mayweather. But you didn't give a single fuck as Miles cooed a gentle "I love you, mi amor." Into your ear. You knew who he preferred over everyone in the school; that mattered to you.

God, idk why but it really annoys me when I mention to strangers I'm actually running an errand for my grandma and not myself and they reply with "you are so sweet for doing that for her" like... I don't really have the choice, yes it's nice that I'm doing this, but I'm doing her errands constantly because I have to, no one else can do this for her, idk, im just tired of everything

#josh screams #sorry for long rant #i did 10 hour days helping her three days in a row just a few days ago #and im so fucking tired.... #i got the day off yesterday. but I'm back today hopefully I don't get home at 12 am again #tho thankfully her house keeper is able to do some things to help her #so im not doing absolutely everything #but there's still a big chunk only I can do and no one else #ughh #my great aunt is very adamant that I get a job #but I really can't be doing this and a job at the same time it's so stressful and overwhelming #i deserve a break!! i got a's and b' last semester and got on the dean's list #let me play video games charlotte >: (
