« And then... | Main | But finally: »

THEN!! I check my work inbox and see that sometimes the people I work with (except Charleen) are assholes, as much as I love them otherwise, they are assholes.

I try really hard not to vent about work here because the person I would normally vent to on a friend-to-friend basis is actually our boss, and I don't like feeling like SHE thinks I want her to fix things, sometimes we just need to vent so we don't get STRESSED OUT ABOUT ASSHOLES. But today, because it's Christmas Eve (for me) and I haven't drunk enough yet to forget about these problems at work, I am going to vent anyway. Charleen needs to cover her ears and close her eyes when she sees this post, because she is not allowed to involve herself in any way!!!!!!!!!

I AM A FUCKING PART TIME WORKER. I WORK FOUR HOURS A DAY. I GET HALF THE PAY OF EVERY ONE ELSE. But no one ever remembers that. I put out as much work as the full time workers, and I don't have a problem working so hard... UNTIL!! I start getting taken advantage of. It really makes me ANGRY that I am then expected to put out full time work every single day. It makes me angry that I am assigned the same amount of over time hours as the full time workers. It makes me angry that we were told to not take vacation this month, SO I DIDN'T, but JUST LIKE EVERY SINGLE OTHER FUCKING YEAR, everyone else did, leave ME to work the over time hours ALL CHRISTMAS WEEK. And like EVERY SINGLE OTHER FUCKING YEAR, I get no vacation this month, but everyone else does.

Then, TODAY, the day I was GIVEN PERMISSION to work 10-2pm, I have been embroiled in some problem that I did not create, someone ELSE ON MY TEAM started this problem, and this caused me to not only work frantically until 2:30, but then after my trip to State Farm and Wells Fargo, I had to get back online to make MORE phone calls and send MORE emails, when not only am I OFF WORK, but someone ELSE on the team is supposed to cover the over time hours. And THEN, I see all these emails from 4:30 on saying "Since Pischina has already left I guess WE'LL have to do this" like I EVER WORK AT 4:30, and then I see an email "I looked this up and it IS renewed, we need to CHECK things like this", BUT I DID CHECK IT AND I CHECKED IT AGAIN AND IT IS NOT RENEWED. SO FUCK YOU to everyone at work!! (Except Charleen, who is NOT READING this).

It's MY CHRISTMAS EVE. IT'S MY HOLIDAY. GIVE ME SOME FUCKING TIME WITH WHAT LITTLE FAMILY I HAVE. It makes me even angrier to know that everyone else at work has their parents, and their husbands, and not only do I not have any of that but this is the only day I have to spend with my kids for Christmas, SO GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK. It's not like anyone is going to be around to do ANY work when I have the overtime hours because THEY ARE ALL ON VACATION. WITH THEIR FAMILIES. So why is it suddenly my problem to work overtime today too???

Okay. Sorry. No more caps, no more swearing. That's what happens when you can't vent to anyone. But I'm done now. The Buff and Spike should be home any minute now (where ARE they???) and then it's Christmas.

Charleen, you can start listing and reading again now.
