#i don't want to abandon my coworkers to a severely understaffed saturday when we just lost a manager and there's like

i’m about to go to bed but i don’t want to take these two thoughts to bed with me so i’m putting them here:

1. i realized that today i got “my gay friend”-ed a bit?? i overheard a coworker talking to a customer about a comment i’d made about wanting to be more visibly gay and i missed part of it but i guess the customer had recently come out and was wanting to experiment with their presentation. which is like, that’s a cool thing! people finding what they’re comfortable in is good! it’s just weird to hear a cishet person like. talk about my experiences with gender secondhand to someone i’ve never met? esp bcus i don’t think my coworker knew i could hear her

2. i picked up a saturday shift when saturday’s supposed to be my day off bcus i had to take sunday + monday off and i’m like. i mean i’m preparing to be fucked up for a week or two but i also realized this means i probably won’t be able to eat the salmon dish i usually make on saturdays and i’m. like genuinely sad? i don’t even like cooking that much but

#little rock.txt #and my family might end up making the salmon dish but it's not the same heated up you konw #*know? #salmon's tricky to have as leftovers #idk maybe i'll ask them to make rice for me and i'll make fried rice or smth idk #i'm gonna have to miss the stream i usually catch on saturdays too and : / #i don't want to abandon my coworkers to a severely understaffed saturday when we just lost a manager and there's like #a whole other drama happening w/ mother's day weekend and the fallout of the sudden loss of a manager #so logically i know i need to work today. but also. i got gently bullied into taking on more hours and i'm so fucking mad about that #i didn't want to!! and i told her no!!! but she was like ''c'mon pls : ( you don't want to have [other coworker] come in on her day off : ( #we just need to make payroll and you're our last chance' #and so i just fucking gave in. i fucking hate that we have to add to payroll #like cool we're making lots of money now leave us alone unless we Need extra hours
