Woke up at 6 this morning coughing a lung up, fever, headache. Couldn't go back to sleep for two hours, finally did. Woke up just in time to leave for the stupid shift leader meeting only to get a call that it's canceled and that it's tomorrow. Tomorrow WHICH IS MY ONLY DAY OFF THIS FUCKING WEEK.

Needless to say, I'm doing my little 12hr+ shift today and my boss can suck my fucking balls if he thinks I'm coming in for a meeting that was moved 15mins before it was supposed to start when he knows I live over a half hour away. He also asked why I sounded so raspy, I said, I'm sick. His response, "You should get some sleep before your shift". THE RAGE IS RISING EVERY MINUTE.

It's been three months THREE MONTHS since I've had more then 1 day off a week (sometimes no days), often times the days off are spread out so i have 10-12 days of work before my next day off and this is the third 12hr+ shifts in two weeks. I'm one of the longest workers there, I've known my boss since I was 14. I feel used and abused, I've had one week out of three months where he attached $10 to my time card. $10. Sure he didn't HAVE to do it, he also did HAVE to make me his pack mule.

On the plus side, I have applied for a new job. Apparently they pay well, still taking a pay cut which I don't even care about. And are really looking for people. It's a 4/5pm-12pm job. I don't even care that it's night. I just want a steady job, steady hours (for the most part) and to know I won't be working everyday of the week because my boss is too fucked up to hire more workers.

...man, that's fucked up. I hate people who think that because they've known you forever or you have a personal relationship they can just completely take advantage of you. Good luck with the new job!!!

Here we are now

You can't leave me I said. For if you go, I will only have myself to talk to.

You have only been talking to yourself the whole time I replied, then left.
