#workplace problems

🍄

a small reminder that...

...not every problem can be solved instantly.

...not every problem is real.

...not every problem is a roadblock.

some problems can be temporary. others can be based on our assumptions, while some can be a blessing in disguise.

take a deep breath. you've got this ✨

Working with Pneumonia

So... I work in a kitchen environment. I worked the last 3 days with fevers and breathing issues. Masked up, and heavily medicated, to make it through the day. Today I went to see a doctor about a concerning symptom.

I was spitting up blood while working. The newly promoted supervisor said that was a good thing.

I got my diagnosis and provided a sick note to my workplace but they still expect me to show up after my usual weekend off.

With a highly infective form of pneumonia.

We work next to the ER and have medical patients as customers.

This is kinda fucked.

*Dantioch blushes an kicks his feet*

Dantioch:“Aww the new guy I work with is so sweet and cute, and he is really putting in the effort to make me feel just like home.”

I hear a lot about "time theft," but I always wonder if there's an equivalent concept for a company or corporation which lies about their employees receiving their due breaks

#politics #anti capitalism #imagine my shock when my coworker told me that [place we work at] goes in to put breaks we didn't get to take on our time cards (sarcastic) #also like that's been a problem for... a Lot of workplaces that don't give breaks but know that's wrong and lie about it #it is funny how things like tome theft are placed as an astronomically high concern when... #...corporations are not only permitted but are expected by Profit Margins to thieve from their actual employees

if escape rooms as team building exercises became popular im not sure if id be more excited or terrified

#if it isnt already anyway.. i can see it happening as a school frosh thing. idk if it would catch on as a workplace thing #i kind of find the concept of being locked in with strangers and working to find a way out weirdly exhilarating though #at least compared to icebreakers cause i dont have to spend 10 minutes racking my brain for something to blurt out abt myself #as a bonus u could like. put people into groups and give prizes to whoever escapes first second third etc. apparently they also do themed #escape rooms.. maybe let people pick a theme? or voluntary sign up? actually this would be really fun for smth like a blind friend date #although if i found out i was locked in a room with an online friend id be too excited to actually escape LOL #ive never done an escape room before so sadly i cant speak from experience. its like up there on things i want to try next to rug tufting #workshop and visiting new art exhibits or conventions. i seriously need to get out more if it wasnt for the horrors <- school and anxiety #i was planning to invite cass to a drop-in art workshop in town but neither of us could go bc typography is making us go thru hell and back #AND THEY HAD A BUTTON MACHINE TOO #im nostalgic bc i miss working in groups and not being awkward abt it or worrying abt schedule conflicts #i realized that i learn best in groups and its a little corny but i like sharing ideas and talking through a problem #in elementary i could just sit down with friends for review and come out of it energized *and* more familiar with the material #and i could technically still do it now. but as adults we're more picky abt who we work with on top of being way more busy outside school #maybe im lonely. im shy and grew up not talking to ppl unless i absolutely have to so its hard to make friends on my own i guess #only thing getting me thru it is telling myself that humans like helping and that my cringe is overblown in my head. but its hard #hence the escape rooms. i have been able to talk to 2(!!) people though!! mostly abt school stuff but im glad to be on friendly terms #i dont really know how to be happy these days cause im constantly scaring myself abt my portfolio and finding places to work #not being ambitious is part of not wanting to put energy into something that wont work out while also not having the passion to do literall #anything else.. i should probably talk to my counsellor ugh #yapping

black and white...

...is impractical.

inside of us, we're all grey. you can't always be completely right or entirely wrong.

sometimes it's a grey zone. it can be a murky grey or a cool one. depends.

it doesn't say anything about you except that you're human. relax ✨

The (tired) face of someone who got a ✨fancy✨ Law degree out of sense of responsibility just to drop everything and become a photojournalist at the publishing and communication agency of his bestie - now family lunches are somewhat awkward.

(or: I roped myself into some kind of ModernAU because I wanted to practice drawing modern clothes - as usual)

+bonus with the actual protagonists

#Idk idk idk #I just hope hawke looks vaguely similar to himself because without face references I'm lost 🫠 #The joy of being used to draw/paint semi realistic stuff #Anyway I like to think that while AU Thedas surely has its problems face tattoos on workplaces are not one of them #They are such a big part of the characters design that I feel bad erasing them #I know I know #clip studio paint #mixed media art #sketches #Dragon age #Da fanart #dragon age fanart #dragon age hawke #da2 #I'm not tagging anders and sigrun because they are literally 2 cm in a corner

Every time I hear a particularly out-of-touch take from an online leftist I want to subject that person to hearing just a little of what my colleagues talk about in the break room

#we are not as a society anywhere near as progressive as working in your office with a diversity and a womens quota would make you belive #and if you keep acting like we are im going to take your head off #signed a queer rural trans man with a blur collar job #'queer identity x is taking away resources from' my brother in christ at my workplace people still joke about rape in polite conversation #you have lost sight of what is and isnt an actual problem

man i miss haru. that boy worked retail AND suppressed a huge part of his identity that both tied to and alienated him from his inner family and community but refused to let it die AND went sent to jail for it AND he’s gay. truly an incredible character i desperately hope he appears in the live action

#atla #natla #atla haru #haru atla #avatar the last airbender #also tumblr made my text REALLY BIG and i can’t fix it on mobile so everyone has to read my big and loud thoughts until i fix it #anyways i turn to him in these trying times where spring and summer are just around the corner #bc peak season for my workplace is coming up. and FAST #i’m that mf in the car praying. haru save me haru #also if they don’t put haru in the live action bc they already used his storyline for the shamylan movie i will be so pissed #i will however understand if the problem is they can’t find an actor who’s prettyboy enough to play him. that’s reasonable #also they better make him canonly gay. he is already but even more so.

Does anybody else feel like mental health awareness has done very little to help them in material reality

#i was gonna say done nothing to help but that seemed too harsh #like there definitely is more knowledge about it now. maybe more people feel comfortable speaking about it which is good #but personally i don't feel that. like idk. workplaces will post about mental health awareness and then do nothing to help employees #the same w universities. my uni cut back the already meager mental health support #and then the government is doing absolutely fuck all as well #like idk im just back in a place i thought id gotten out of long ago and i still don't feel comfortable talking about it with people #maybe that's a me problem or maybe it's cultural or something idk. but in the 10 years ive been depressed (🫠) i don't think it's gotten a #whole lot better. teenagers are still dealing with the same shit i did and they're still not being taken seriously #women's mental health is not even spoken about.....anxiety depression sh eds etc are still ignored or seen as hysterical behaviour in women #or just normal esp with disordered eating. society hasn't changed people still want women to be stick thin and weak #like i know 10 years is a short time and there has been massive improvements in mh awareness if we look back over the past 50+ years #but idk i just think that it hasn't gotten better for a lot of people #i think specifically of belfast and like god. the amount of trauma there is the amount of homelessness the amount of substance abuse #drug abuse in particular that has gotten visibly worse over the past decade or so* #and i connect the dots n see the 2008 recession + a tory gov defunding the nhs + dehumanisation of homeless people & addicts + the troubles #+ ptsd + generational trauma + a negative peace + classism + paramilitary drug dealers + parties linked to those paramilitaries #and its like hmmmm i think we live in a society. and a mental health approach based on individual actions like journaling and meditation #isn't the way to go. or at least is not the be all and end all which is what a lot of mental health awareness raising seems to promote #*visibly worse on the streets. it was always a problem ofc but even a decade ago my parents never imagined it would be as bad as it is now #and it's become so normalised. i do think there's less individualism here than there seems to be elsewhere which can be good and can be bad #but i think we are becoming more and more individualistic. slowly. there's still a sense of community here but i do think it's changing #and callousness towards homeless people is one of the most obvious examples of this. #love when i put a wee asterisk in the tags of a post. like i have A Lot To Say lol

dear internet stop throwing pictures of beautifully toasted bagels slathered in cream cheese at me i don't have a toaster i don't have room in my teeny kitchenette for a toaster a toaster is a luxury here in japan as are bagels as is cream cheese

bagel places here that ask me "do you want that heated up" make me want to cry tears of joy even though all they mean is they're gonna stick the bagel in the microwave for ten seconds so it's slightly warm-ish but not enough to crisp up or melt the cream cheese a little

#food #closest bagel place to me has two options blueberry bagel or white choco chip #its fortunate that i love blueberry but anyway that shows the general mindset towards bagels here they're sweet snacks more or less #hard to find everything bagel or onion bagel etc #i havent been home since before covid but my primary reason for wanting to is i neeeed a nyc bagel #and real mac n cheese and real grilled cheese #and pasta that isnt spaghetti with something something cream sauce #oh and i really miss american bbq which means it sucks that i'll be going home in winter bahahaha #never expected to stay here as long as i have but otoh food cravings aside what real motivation do i have to live in the us #obvs my parents and i do want to see them and wish we could live close #but as for life in the us itself... living here is so far a lot easier in a multitude of ways #the biggest downside is my being a foreigner. gotta reapply for that visa every few years #and even though i speak japanese every day the business-style japanese of workplaces is totally different so im limited in terms of jobs #aaaand when im home in the us i have the opposite problem... i miss japan and japanese food instead xP #why cant i teleport that'd solve everything #fizz's life #why are people reblogging this??? X'D
