--- I still don't get it ---
You know I was sitting at work very frustrated. I've worked 54 hours this week which for some people isn't much since I know many people that work way over 60 and 70 hours a week. I'm exhausted. I'm ready to strangle someone. How can all these people afford to call out or just not work, to take a week off for whatever reason and act like its nothing? Then there are some that take the week off and then bitch when its payday because their check is half of what it should be. How do you explain to these people that you only get paid when you work. You're hourly not salary. If my manager who is a salary doesn't work at least 45 hours a week they call and bitch at him that he needs to be in the store more. They aren't just kids that are ignorant of this concept, some are 30 years old. I just don't see how some people can be so self centered. Then when they show up for work they're whiny and don't want to do anything, they want to get paid to stand there and complain that they have to work that day. Wtf... Today I was so exhausted, its been a long week of 12 hour day, 9 hour days and no breaks. Short handed just about every day and if I'm not shorthanded I may as well be cause I can do the job faster and better myself. And I tried not to bitch all day about being tired, every time I walked an order out to the dining room and then walked back my hip would make a popping noise and my knee would crack. I just about screamed when the guy on the back working a 5 hour shift wouldn't stop complaining because his feet hurt. I never did say a word though, because people have been causing so much drama at work lately that I'm refusing to say anything. Nothing like getting my life threatened supposedly to the point where I'm parking my car in the front of the store only to find out it was totally blown out of proportion and my manager almost blew his top when he found out Frankie had lied to everyone and almost gotten Travis fired because of it. See that's why I'm refusing to trust people anymore, they lie just for the hell of it, because they think its funny and will cause drama. They aren't thinking well these people have kids to support, it may just be fast food but dammit this job pays my bills. Assholes.
College officially started today, I've been printing stuff for my online classes. I like to have hard copies in case I can't get online at the time. Tomorrow starting at 9:30am I have Intermediate Accounting and at 10:45am that's over . Then I have Cost accounting at 11am and that's over at 12:15pm. I might actually have that backwards but the classes are in the same room with the same instructor so I'm really not that worried about it. Then I'm taking health and art history online. These are gonna be harder then they look but I'm up for the challenge. I'm sure I've posted some of this before but I'm not worried about it.
Austin's doing good. He started back to the special ed. pre-K this year. This should be his last year in pre-K and next year he should start Kindergarten. I'm very nervous about his starting real school but it's a year away so I'm not going to think about that either lol. He's been doing great in class, they said he's matured a lot over the summer. We've made progress with the potty training but still not even close to getting rid of pullups all the way. I did sign him up for soccer this year for the 4-5 yr olds. They've had autistic kids before so they seem to be able to handle it. I'm excited for him, it'll be good for him to get out and be able to do something. He needs to be more active and there just isn't much room here for him to do anything without getting in trouble. I'm going to take him outside with me in a little while so we can water the garden and pull up some weeds. Cliff will spray him with the hose and get him soaked, that'll help wear him out before bed.
Let's see. I know there is more I wanted to say but really its lost on me now. Sorry this is so long but I needed to make a real entry, helps me calm down.
