The next Q&A segment is done and ready. It'll be up and online on this coming Thursday.
Geek boy, aspiring writer, and proud Brony with a story to tell.
I was supposed to have a day off. Had been working for three days. Then the guy scheduled to close called in, so I got called in. And my next day isn't until Saturday.
I hate my life. I hate feeling like I'm not allowed to get anything done for me anymore. What point is there in living if all you do is labor for someone else? I want to labor for me. I want to accomplish something for me. I want to feel like what I do, what I enjoy, what I want matters.
The DLC for Pokémon Scarlet is still occupying my time, but I'm working through the last remnants of what needs to be done for it. My backlog of viewing is getting whittled down, but my efforts are still stymied due to a lack of interest in certain things that I feel are necessary to watch before certain other things come along - Chris Chibnall hath burned me, and reviews for Secret Invasion have discouraged me.
I've been a little bit, haven't I?
Work is keeping me busy, but we have new people, so things do appear to be easing up. Creative efforts are still stymied, but I have every intention of having the next Q&A round ready by the end of this month. That will, of course, depend entirely upon whether I get distracted by the DLC for Pokémon Scarlet.
So yeah, work's getting me down. AGAIN.
Between it being a holiday weekend and us being generally understaffed, I've been asked to come in tomorrow. On my day off. Second week in a row that I've only gotten one day off, and it's getting to me. And this is coupled with today having been super busy and one of the co-managers deciding to talk with me at length at the end of my shift, thus preventing me from getting all the necessary end-of-the-evening stuff done.
So, today I went into work on what was supposed to be my day off. Came in at 8:30AM, left at 7PM. We expected sixty-four orders...and we got ninety. The system that would've let me clock in despite my not being scheduled to work was down for two and a half hours after I arrived, and I wasn't able to fix the issue until much later. I spent the day working my ass off trying to get things done, a coworker who always prioritizes his breaks over getting the work done did exactly that - and
