#working two full time jobs will do that

[revolutionarysuicide]

they should invent a job that i actually want

#jk they should abolish work but in the fucking mean time. #'dream job' would probably be to develop foss for a living but generally that is not very profitable lol #and i assume it's not easy to get a job at one of the orgs that hires ppl to develop foss projects full time #tbh im in i think two different orgs? that have paid positions #i could become a professional party bureaucrat... but idk i also dont really want to do that for work

Ambulatory Wheelchair user Vil Schoenheit, AU

As a dancer and a highly active person the stress put on his joints and injuries to the hip and torso area gave him chronic pain. Formed a pars fracture and sprains became fairly common. With the additional injuries from his overblot it was decided that he would benefit from a mobility aid.

went from "yeah, this dumb idea i have for himbo!porsche will be 40K max with bite sized chapters" to officially crossing 80k words today.

and we're not even close to the end of chapter 12 yet.

#shoutout to situationship for being my longest most thought out fic ever #but also how the fuck did i manage to do this while working two jobs and being in school full time #and then completely lose my ability to write once i stopped doing ANY of that #fic: the situationship

Personal but: tomorrow I gotta call my neurologist's office and ask them to transfer my medical record to my doctor, so that he can sign off on my disability pension, and I can't wait to hear what excuse I'm going to get for why they cannot perform this basic fucking task. It's gonna be like "actually because we write our medical records on circle-shaped paper we're unable to scan it into normal square-shaped paper format, so that's why we can't transfer your medical record, guess you'll just have to choose between death by seizure or death by starvation uwu". And I know anyone reading this will be thinking I'm just being silly and dramatic and to that I say: tune in tomorrow and find out lmao

#then after that I gotta actually get this doctor to fill out the form correctly #which you would think would be easy for someone with a whole ass medical degree #but everyone always a dumbass around me so BET #and THEN once I've gotten two consecutive people to do their jobs I gotta face the final boss #which is the welfare office #which is notoriously staffed by devoutly malignant dumbasses #looking at the doctor's statement #deciding they don't know better than a doctor #which often they DO decide they know better than a doctor so that ain't a given #and then looking at that in conjunction with my homelessness #and coming to the conclusion that I might in fact struggle to work full-time #and if they still want to force me to do pointless activities to punish me for relying on welfare #that I should at least be referred to a disability employment service #who will be far better equipped to force me to do those things in a way that ain't gonna result in me in an emergency department #so all this gotta line up all these people gotta act right in a row #and I never get people acting right ever #so I have low expectations #but I have over the years grown some humour about this sort of thing so I genuinely can't wait to see how ridiculous this gets #lmao

Me rn bc other than reading my favorite free-time activity is playing sims but I don’t have my gaming laptop with me. Is this the time I should start learning how to crochet bc I’ve always wanted to…..

#alsooo the semester started today !! had to take a bus to campus which was my first time ever riding the bus lol #I was soo confused and scared of taking the wrong one but I figured it out #got to campus and got lost for like half an hour bc it’s huge. the class I had today is probably gonna be my favorite one #bc the professor is young and super nice and flexible with grading n all that #anyway. I actually have a zoom class in 40 mins! #I’m taking two online classes because it’s just what worked best for my schedule and also I kinda had no option #bc when I was finally able to register all the classes I was rlly interested in were full…… lowkey still upset ab that #but let’s hope I can register for them next semester #LAST UPDATE I GOT THE JOB I WANTED! #genuinely hope you are all doing well!! <3 #let me know what’s going on w u guys I truly wanna know 😌 #nonsims #txt post

so i finished an application to my local library, please be manifesting for me to get this job, it’s notoriously hard to get library jobs (which is why i went into this field, obviously :’) )

#not to sound arrogant or anything but like…i imagine i’m one of the only people my age that has library assistant experience for this— #because i was a library assistant in middle and high school. which is not much but i’m only 20 so idk what else i’d have atp #anyways…I know i already technically have two jobs but i only do one and i’m a full time student #but gahhh i really want this job it’s exactly the kind of experience i need because even with a master’s employers want that experience #regardless of what i think of that i gotta deal #anyways oh god i’m going to bed at midnight i gotta be up at 5:30 for work—gn! #rose.txt

So how do you tell your current boss that, hey, you got a new part-time job that you kept very secret and now you'll need to cut your hours by half, but like, you still absolutely want/need to continue working for them?

#kite rambles #cause the plan was a full-time job with no customers to deal with so i could be all #“No i really do love y'all but I'm gonna strangle a customer soon if i don't get out” #and now it's like #“well I'm sort of trying to get back into edu and this is a step pls ignore that the full path involves ditching y'all eventually” #cause with the other place being 20hr and giving me insurance at that amount i can cut this place back to 20hr and actually be ahead #like i could actually cut the pharmacy to probably 10hr and be right where I'm at financially but that would be pretty stupid #i just... don't know how to bring it up #i talked to a co-worker about that pharmacist and she said to start documenting things #but she also talked to the boss because they've worked together for like 20 years and are legitimately friends #and she said i should talk directly to him about the issues i have with that pharmacist #so there are TWO awkward things i need to talk to him about #help

happy may day y'all remember that if you want to unionize your work place (and you absolutely should), the first step is getting familiar with your coworkers. one of the most important stages of forming a union is having conversations about the possibility of unionizing and what people want from a union in your workplace. you can't do this if you don't know them well enough to talk to them

#start to subtly implant the idea! try to find out about nearby unions in your field #or look for union stuff on the news #one of my biggest ins with a lot of different people has been 'have you heard about all the Starbucks unionizing?' #then the first library in missouri unionized and that became a great way to start conversations #also you must‚ and i cannot stress this enough‚ MUST be willing to put in the work #i have a part time job and a full time job and i give up an hour of my week to attend meetings #i have conversations with as many people as possible at work and outside of work when necessary #and im in pretty constant communication with the other organizers #our biggest obstable is that very few people will put in the work. weve been doing this for over 2 years now #and were like finally about 15 yesses from being ready to go public. after TWO YEARS #because people are ready to complain but unwilling to do anything to fix the problems

#it's actually absurd that i spend this much time writing #i have a full time job AND another job #and i am usually only home 2-3 nights a week #with social stuff and other stuff #AND YET!!! #i am so upset with myself for not updating pink and blue #but it's not because i'm not writing it's because I AM WRITING SOMETHING ELSE LIKE A SLUG #AND NEITHER OF THOSE IS MY NOVEL #anyway i need to take pressure off myself because no one is paying me to do this #but yeah #idk #it'll come eventually #my fic #i had work and not one but TWO extremely important meetingsbefore and after work today sorry jess you get none of my attention today

people claim to understand that progress isn't linear and recovery can take a long time until it becomes personally inconvenient to them and then you're just a stupid lazy bastard to them no matter how you behaved before you became outwardly sick or how hard you've been trying to get better. and i will be mad about that forever

#text post #vent #venting #vent post #chronic illness #mental illness #progress is not linear #recovery takes time #ive only been diagnosed and trying treatments for my autoimmune disease for 1yr #ive been sick for closer to 5 #i just got covid for the second time in january and its fucked up all the progress #that i was making #and now rather than try to support me through a major setback #everyone is acting like i just dont have my shut together and im not trying #meanwhile i am doing my best to keep up when walking a single flight of stairs is still hard for me #and there are very few people who meaningfully recognize how hard this is for me #i used to work three jobs while going to school full time seeing my family frequently #AND having a social life and maintaining my ltr #now im married yeah but i only do one wfm full time job barely engage with my hobbies #see my family and friends infrequently and tbh barely leave my house #and its not for any lack of wanting to #its because i CANT #and even fewer people are making am efforts to accommodate me #so i force myself to occasionally go out and see people #and then need to recover for two weeks #and they dont even appreciate how HARD it is #so much of the effort disabled put into their interactions with abled or just differently #disabled loved ones goes completely unnoticed because its expected as the bare minimum another can do #but rhe bare minimum to them is the absolute best you yourself can give #and nobody cares

At this rate it’ll be MerMay again before I have enough backlog to post What the Tide Keeps ;-;

Or idk, maybe being trapped inside over winter will help me write more. When community obligations die down a small bit… a SMALL bit. Because I DO want to be posting it. I want tooooooo

#working what amounts to basically two full time jobs is not uhhh #not great for creative time #but needs must #turns out it’s hard to write fanfic #when I’m supposed to be writing scripts and sermons #and essays… #and helping other people put on rituals #I love all of that #but it do be time consuming #I don’t think I have a single break in community work until mid November #and even then it’ll be brief #because I’m supposed to help with Yule #*sigh* #is ok though

nothing like getting very minorly told off at work to make me feel physically ill for the rest of the day

#logically it's like. ok no one told me not to do that and it was ambiguous #so now that you've said not to I won't in the future. case closed #but it's like ahhhhhhhh so who even told you I was doing that in the first place #and why. were they annoyed? and more importantly did they present the situation accurately to you? #or do you now think I was doing something worse than I actually was? #second of all it wasn't complicated to explain so you didn't need to slack me to tell me to stop by your office #you could have just said it over slack. two sentences #a real win for the inclination to assume that everyone thinks I'm annoying and bad at my job and they regret hiring me #<<skewed for sure but there is a tiny bunny rabbit in my chest who needs a 99:1 positive to negative feedback ratio and she's not getting i #anyway I don't ever want to be seen as resistant to criticism so I'm always just like okay :) 👍 #resisting the urge to explain or justify but then that just makes me worry everyone assumes the worst of me #bc I'm not making it absolutely clear where I'm coming from #and the answer is. bestie they aren't thinking abt you at all it's not that deep #also. it makes sense that I am worse than everyone else at my job bc I am the newest and the least experienced #and also! this is the first time I've ever worked in an office environment! first time I've ever worked full time! #I don't know what I'm doing! I deserve a little grace! #anyway yikes yikes yikes #yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes yikes

Sometimes it feels like my mom punishes me for things I can't control and it's actually kinda really upsetting.

#i fell asleep yesterday after work as i mentioned before and that means i wasn't able to wash up after dinner #she said to me today that if i fell asleeo again before dinner she'd be pissed off at me #and usually a comment like that wouldn't bother me #but I'm the only one working full time/ with two jobs in my house #especially when my brothers don't do anything around the house #even though they don't have jobs/ do anything full time. and yet the responsibility of housekeeping is always left to me #even if I'm tired. The reason i can't fo to sleep early ia because cleaning the downstairs before i go takes a while #ofc it would when you have a family of 9 and you're the only person doing it #she never asks them either #and then she gets upset at me if like yesterday i don't do these things #and it's like #everyone keeps telling me fo stop treating myself as a machine #but it's kinda hard when everyone else does the same #today/ this week when work has been really tough and im struggling already because im having a hard time #it's the last thing you wanna hear that someone's upset at you for doing something that could have been shared between others #i don't know it just feels like a sledgehammer fo the chest every time #i just feel I'm constantly disappointing someone because im not able to do what they say #ans no matter how much i say it's unfair nothing ever changes.
