Secretly screaming...
6 years ago
Hello my lovelies
I just wanted to let everyone know what's going on... I have been working overtime for the past month, trying to save up money to move because we were basically being forced out. And even though the drama has died down suddenly everything at work exploded. Out of a 15 person crew, 5 people left and 1 got in a car accident. In 2 weeks we will lose 2 more. This means we are so under staffed that my managers are over looking our limits.
I work in a grocery store, in a deli, my job shouldn't be that hard...and yet I almost pasted out in our kitchen, do to dehydration and pain. Only then was I ALLOWED to take a 30 minute break. This break came at the end of my shift 1 hr before I was suppose to go home. I cooked 548 pieces of fried chicken ( which is 137 WHOLE birds) + 400 wings alone. That was 6 hrs, I pushed myself with no bathroom breaks and no water, in a hot kitchen. I have a weight restriction do to my car accident last year and Im not supposed to be lifting 20 lbs or more, and I did that so much today that my muscles in my arms locked up in pain. I cried in from of everyone in my break room because I hurt so bad but knew that I needed the money from this job so I couldn't go home.
I have never pushed myself so hard just so I couldn't sit down!
I love you all and miss RP with you and talking to you on my server on Discord, but I find it hard to even find time to play with my son let alone get online. I was trying to draw to keep my spirits up, but Im quickly becoming defeated in even that. Im trying to hold on..I really am but its getting really hard.
Thank you for all your support Im sorry I dont post more art or get online much. Once this all dies down, HOPEFULLY I will be online more. But right now, pain and depression are slowly taking over my day to day.
You all are amazing Thank you for being there for me.

Ps. I want to adopt one of your guys I'll note you
Stay safe <3
You just take care of yourself. <3
I send lots of hugs your way!
I'm so sorry you are going through that.
I admire you still trucking on and continuing to work through it, but please remember your own health too.
Hopefully you can get some more staff on, don't let upper management be complacent about working a skeleton crew.
Hopefully they are able to find more folks to help fill in while you are working, at least to give you the breaks and at least time to get drinks soon. Though if it doesn't appear that way...maybe keep an eye on want ads or something?
