Just the daily reminders that not only am I surrounded by fairly dumb people,they also choose to celebrate how dumb they are.

Not so much angry and more disappointed; but today I found out that Lacuna Coil put out a 20th anniversary remix/remake of their Comalies album, an album that I love. After listening to a few tracks on YouTube it seems all they did was drop the tempo down a notch and made Andrea Ferro (in full death metal growl mode) the lead vocalist on most of the songs.

My mother assuming the reason I was disinterested in talking to her was because I was flirting with someone online when in actuality I had been sitting on hold for 40 minutes trying to verify something with my insurance company.

Well, doctor said this rash is shingles
I’ve heard it is awful, so this is either a mild case, or the worst is yet to come
On about day 5

My best friend has been avoiding get-togethers with my husband and I.. she never has to pay for anything, and has gone to the same excuse well rotation, and I'm exhausted, mentally. Mom, my husband, and my boss, were all pissed when they found out that it got to the point where I broke down.

Water Pressure and Plumbing's gone out again, this is the third time it's happened and it'll probably cost a thousand bucks to fix it.

Last day of glorious glorious summer.
Work begins anew tomorrow, and the countdown to yet another summer vacation begins again.

My work's schedule changes all the time. Whatever, it happens, I am not the only employee and the world doesn't revolve around me, so I get that, when scheduling people, none of us can necessarily expect total stability in this line of work.
But, a day after getting my schedule, I get a text to show that they want me to come in a half an hour later for two days, the two days that I most frequently work 9am to 2pm, but they had already changed to 5pm. My responsibility on those days is to take shipments and put them away by myself. So, unless they are having someone else helping me, or the shipment's going to be halved, they expect me to do an hour's worth of work in half an hour before I'm moved to other responsibilities at 10 am like I usually am.
I'm almost looking forward to telling them that, had they asked me, I could have told them that was not going to work, if they bitch about me not being done by 10 am. I've been doing this for more than a month now, I know how long it takes.

Following on from the above post about work schedules, one of my colleagues quit yesterday, without notice, in the middle of his shift.
Now, he’s got his reasons - largely that he was on a disciplinary for gross misconduct and probably would’ve been sacked anyway - and far be it from me to say he was wrong because I can’t say I wouldn’t have handled it the same way, but it’s thrown everything into disarray at our place and I’m now picking up an extra shift tomorrow on what would’ve been my day off to cover, I have to work five ten-hour shifts in the next two weeks, and I don’t know when I’m working in the first two weeks of September. My line manager is on the brink of a nervous breakdown (literally) because on top of this, three other members of staff are on final written warnings and some are trying to blame each other for stupid shit they’ve done.
So I suppose I’m angry at the silly situation.

The insurance company I work for took enormous losses in 2022 as supply chain issues increased the cost and time of repairs, completely f***ing the budget they had worked out for the year.
After shedding 15% of our policy holders to price increases, the company managed to achieve profitability the first two quarters of this year.
Now in our third quarter we get word that almost all of our Field Investigators were called into the office and laid off yesterday.
Word about this got out and sparked a panic, so everyone in the department I work in had to sit in a virtual meeting today where our director acknowledged that the layoffs caught him by surprise, that he doesn't know why they did so, but that none of us should worry about our jobs.
This at a time when the amount of work I have to do is very low, partly because we lost a little more than one in every ten customers last year.
I'm really good at my job, I like what I do, and since the pandy it's felt like I can never just settle in and be sure that's going to be enough to keep the money coming in.
Doesn't feel like this is the way the world should be.

Got woken up early a couple weeks of times in the week but it's the weekend, can lay in and make up for them. So I wake up even earlier.

Pulled my back picking up a box of macaroni and cheese from a low shelf at Walmart yesterday. I kid you not.
