SO TIRED

Currently Listening: Ingrid Michaelson - Keep Breathing

I am so so so so so so so tired of all the stupid stuff that happens at work. Before I even start this I want to say - I LOVE my job. It's fun, I love the people, the environment...come on people, I make smoothies for a living! How could anything be easier?! So besides the great happy stuff that sugar coats the actually situation, I LOATHE my job. Everything I do there gets looked over, ignored, disregarded, and I honestly receive a total lack of respect from the higher ups.

I'm tired of this.

This past week I've closed 6 times, IN A ROW. Do you understand that not only is closing an un-fun task in it of itself, but when tomorrow is inspection day at the store closing is a million times worse. I've scrubbed, drained, bleached, clr-ed, and dazzled every single last millimeter of that stupid store, and when asked how our close was the response was an "okay." No sir, I do not think so.

I'm sick of this.

So okay, it's been a busy week, I guess I shouldn't be expecting a million compliments. But you know what? I've worked at this store for 13 months. Why have I stayed? It's definitely not the pay. I started at $7 and have moved up to a whopping $7.10!! Wow, that'll totally convince me to stay! NO. I have friends who make more than me and have gotten raises in the 3 months that they've worked somewhere. So why do I have any reason to stay at this place?

For today I just have one thing to say:
I'm putting myself across the line, and maybe risking it all. I don't care anymore and I better get a reason to stay or I'm leaving for sure.

FIN.
