I'm Not Good...
3 years ago
Hello.
Things aren't going well as planned...
On my last journal, I mentioned that I worked at a local coffee shop as a barista. Let's just say it's not gonna last long. I finally got the job in September of this year and was pretty happy because I was looking for work since July. Sadly, that happiness was short lived. A week ago, my manager decided to hire a new worker into the coffee shop and decided to put me "On-Call". He explained that I wasn't in trouble or anything like that. I was a slow learner and made some improvements within the last month.
What does this mean for me? It looks like I won't be getting a lot of shifts as much as I want. With that, I may have to find another job.
This year was beginning to boom for me in the first half, but then it became a bust. I'm probably going through some depression right now. Even though my birthday is this November 22nd. Sometimes I feel like a failure at everything. I may vent more at the end of the year, so probably expect another journal coming up.
For now, I will continue to do some art on here. Gonna finish a few pieces I have started in the last week. As well as other projects I have planned in December.
I will update you all when something comes up like a new job. At the meantime, I'm just gonna post some art.

I'm in an exact situation like you, trying to find a job and get my life back into shape, but feeling like I'm a total failure, especially with the cards I've been dealt with in my own life, and battling against my own mental state (Being that I have Asperger's and ADHD) including depression much like you, I know how it is, and it's sad to hear that this had to happen to you, especially how this job meant a lot to you, But I do hope things turn out better for you in the coming months.
I know this is rather lengthy in what I wrote especially coming from a stranger on this site, but reading this journal of yours, I totally understand how you feel, and I'm really sorry to hear this happen to you, and I just wanted to write this to let you know, you aren't the only one alone going through a similar situation in life, again, I hope things will turn out better for you, and may the next month and next year bring you happiness and much good blessing in your life.
