Tabby Exhausted; Out of Commission for a bit.
10 years ago
Hey viewers, watchers, and friends.
Thought I bring you all up to speed on how life has been fairing for me lately since I've been quite quiet this past week.
I've been in a anti-social mood drained and disinterest in wanting to chat, respond, play online, etc. None of it is towards any friends or anyone online at all; I still love all of you peeps...uh, guys and gals. My lethargic gloom mood has been stemming from life situations that have gotten to a point that I can't stand it anymore. This is mostly work related.
My current job; it sucks. Everyone I work with are great, and there has been days that truly felt rewarding. But...its the warped policies the company has taken that infuriates me, plus while I do have good relations with most of my co-workers I've hit my limit with how almost every order that gets done gets ruined or misinterpreted to where I have to fix it or deal with the disgruntled customers...and lately it has felt like a reoccurring nightmare.
Monday's events was the final straw. I finally took a step forward and placed an application online for one of the known staffing offices in town, and they called back Tuesday to setup an appointment to interview me into understanding more of my character and work history (even though I didn't finish the application). I scheduled the Interview for Thursday so I could finally work on my Resume in case they needed it. The plan was to do so immediately after work (since it was a short shift in the morning) while getting a mini haircut to shorten so I can see again and didn't look too ragged. Problem was one of our coworkers called in unavailable and I got forced to work until 6pm...which turned into 7pm. I managed to get the mini-haircut in time before they closed, but I had little time to really concentrate on my Resume (I was hoping to hang with a friend who would help me in how to construct one, but by time I finally got home he was unavailable).
Thursday came and I woke up to the expected rattled nerves nausea I figured I would have, which (while too extreme) felt as agonizing as getting you entire body sucked out through a small hole into the vacuum of space like the Newborn Xenomorph Hybrid from Alien: Resurrection (anyone remember, or haven't denounced, that movie? ). Didn't help much finding out some crap had gone down at work that morning too, but by the end of my shift I felt a bit more relaxed. The Interview didn't begin until I had to fill out a few forms (which asked me the same questions like 3 or 4 times), and then I had the actually face-to-face interview. I feel like I did ok, though the lack of a goal/preferred position may make it hard for the office to figure out what new employment will fit me. So I'm still a bit nervous wondering when I'll get a call back and what they manage to find for me.
Honestly; I don't care if its the same position again, just as long it isn't with my current company (and hopefully one that doesn't have me needing to pimp customers out with hundreds of promotions or programs).
And now; I'm stuck in my bedroom nursing a sore throat that may be a precursor to a damn Cold. I really don't want to be sick; I was doing so well not being caught by that damn Rhino. I'm supposed to go see my sister and my adorable niece whose eager to see her fluffy Uncle again. But I don't want to be out of commission to play with her, nor risk passing whatever the hell I caught to everyone. That's why I have been downing glasses of OJ every two hours to sooth my throat and keep my body filled with Vitamin C to kill this thing off.
In other news; I beat Batman: Arkham Asylum for the first time this week...and now trying to beat it again on Hard mode. I'd stream this, but my PC has since pretty much died on me and I doubt my laptop could handle playing the game AND Twitch streaming at the same time. Praying future new job will help me earn much more to save for a new PC.
And; as some might have guessed, I haven't been writing as much as I wanted to again. Seeing as the following week gave me too much time off I'm going to try and focus on the stories again and maybe finally make progress.
I think that's all I'll discuss today. Hopefully my mood will switch back over. I'm sorry if I haven't been responding to people AND especially to my friends. I'll get back onto my feet again soon. Until then; Happy Easter weekend everybody.
OH; just reminding again that I do have a Twitter account. I have been tweeting often lately about life, events, or just shooting the breeze and being weird. Anyone that wants to keep up with me when I'm quiet elsewhere are welcome to following me; same name.
