TREAT, originally uploaded by powerbooktrance.

my coworker and i feel
like we are the ones
that cover anything
and everything.

the ones who are always
depended on who get
pressured and guilted into
saying "yes" when we want
to scream "no"

i was supposed to have
a baby shift today of only four hours.
i got off hecka later than i was supposed to.

and on top of that, i spent a good hour
trying to get rid of a bird that flew into
the store. how it got into the store, you ask?
some customer swore it was like an oven
in the store and propped the door open
despite us telling that person "no"...
might i add it was only 40 degrees outside.

...people.
ugh. i've picked up so many hours this week.
and i hate how despite that i say that i don't
want to open all the flippin' time, i STILL get put
on the darn schedule to open everyday on the
weekends. or i close on a weekend and work
not that much later the next day.

i don't want my social life to go away.
oh... and now they're putting me on the
schedule for sundays. i told them i
wasn't available on sundays.

and i understand that we're understaffed
but seriously...

i'm just tired. i love my store. i love my
coworkers. i just don't love my hours,
and i don't like being guilted into taking
more hours than i need to.

oh well.
love you.
God bless.
peace.
