I'm unemployed... AGAIN! · 11:09am Feb 8th, 2017
So last Friday I left my job. It was a cafe job, been there a little more than a month, but it was time to quit.
I was so overworked because it was this little independent cafe with not many staff members, and the boss didn't want the others to work because I am legitimately really good at my job. Seriously. I am being modest as well. I was the only trained Barista, could use the till perfectly well, polite to the customers, have an accent that people can understand, and I can handle the stress thanks to working at the high pace Costa. The cafe was nowhere near as hard as Costa.
As a result I was the one that opened in the morning, closed in the evening, and, if I didn't ask for time off, would have been seven days a week. One time the boss treated me to 3 half days off, but I told him I want an actual whole day off as well because I really needed to sleep.
Second to last week I worked 7 days straight, half 7 to 5 for 6 of them. Totalling about 63 hours! A little illegal, but so was the cash in hand pay as it wasn't really taxed, but SSSSH. Don't tell HMRC.
Anyway, the shop was closing for a refurbishment for 2 weeks on the monday just gone, so I saw my out and took it. Was gonna quit in February anyway so it doesn't matter.
Now it's time to get the job I want to do. To get paid for the things I enjoy doing! Also to sort my life out a bit.
I'm gonna sew. I'm gonna write. I'm gonna make movies. It's gonna be good.
By the way. Anyone in Manchester willing to help memake movies? It hards to do everything on your own when you simply can't.
So, that's a little update on me for anyone left who cares. Would tell you about my writing but I've done nothing. Like, actually nothing. Not even a little, pathetic amount. Actually NOTHING! Wow... that's a little sad... Oh well. Time to change that.
I'm gonna get off now. Got a bathroom to clean and a gym to go to.
You guys have a good day!
