Work kind of sucks, but also doesn't
17 years ago
Oh my god, I'm so freaking tired. I slept one metric shit-ton of sleep between yesterday afternoon (4:30 pm until 10 pm) and this morning (like 3 am ish until I had to get up for work).
Tomorrow is a pansy-ass four-hour shift. Friday, all hell breaks loose. I go in to cover for B at the High House* store at 5 am, work until 10 am, then go to MY store and work from noon until 7:30ish. Approximately 13 hours of work. Oh, there will be carnage. Sweet, caffienated carnage. *grins* I love days where I work my ass off and have a lot fo money to show for it. As it is, I'll probably have a good hour or so of overtime, since I stuck around at High House today helping out after my original shift until they could find someone to come in for Doc (poor kid's trying to work while he's got the flu).
*So, reason I'm working at High House this week... My manager, fucking sweetheart that he is, scheduled me a grand total of 25 hours this week. After only haveing 20-some-odd hours last week due to court shit, I can't take two weeks of HALF the hours I'm used to getting. Last week and this week will go on the same SHITTY paycheck together. I have bills to pay, and 25 hours a week doesn't pay them. So I went to High House looking for hours because I'd heard they needed help (turns out, they don't need it as bad as I thought, but they had some folks who were happy to give up some hours). I managed to pick up 16 hours altogether, which put me at 41 for the week. My manager hates it when we get overtime (anything past 40 hours in a week), os I negotiated with one of the girls I'm covering for, and I now have 40 scheduled hours fro the week. I stay behind an extra thirty minutes today so some calls could be made to find someone to cover for Doc, so that gives me a half an hour of overtime, which makes me rather happy, anyways.
Saturday is a decent shift, at least I won't have to be there at the crack of dawn.
I have Sunday off, and Sunday evening is Crazy Fire with Lara and other various stompy arrow people. Apples to Apples may occur, who knows. =D
PS - I found the hair dye color I was looking for. Dyeing hair sometime in the next 2 days. <3
