Trying So Hard and Getting Nothing in Return
you know, this is kind of a bitch, kind of a cry for sympathy, for advice, i don't know? so i'm just gonna post it in here...
i work my ass off at work, i've only been there 4 months, but i work my ass off, sometimes work 10 hour days. like yesterday, i work with one other girl, i work 8-4:30, she works 9:30 to 6, because someone has to be there to answer phones between 8 and 6. so yesterday she goes home sick, and what do i do? work the whole shift, over 10 hours in total with no lunch break, cuz someone has to be there to answer the goddamn phones. Then, to make things even better, she announces that she is not making up that day she missed (she is supposed to have friday off cuz she worked saturday last weekend). she is not coming in on friday, and plus that, she decided she is not working the half day she is supposed to work on christmas eve. fuck. and she has only been working with me for a month! i just can't believe the nerve. i work my ass off, covering her ass, and i get nothing in return. i make less money than her, about 400 less per paycheck, so 800 less a month, and i swear i do more work than her. she just has more experience. but no one acknowledges it, i get nothing in return! so why do i bother? so i work 10 hour days, then its time to come home. what do i do? drive out to coquitlam in rush hour traffic so i can see my boyfriend. he can't go out sometimes on school nights, so i go out there to see him. i bust my ass making time for him, getting him whatever he needs. i'm not saying that i dont get anything back from him, because i do. he's wonderful. I love him to pieces and i don't know what i'd do without him...but sometimes i just feel like i am putting in more effort. or maybe its that i'm putting in too much effort? like, why do i bother putting in so much effort and trying so hard to please everyone when in the end it's just wearing me down? i just want to sit at my house and cuddle with my boyfriend and just RELAX. but i barely ever get to. once a week at the most now i know he's probably gonna read this, and take it the wrong way, and i don't mean it like that. hunny i understand ... its okay. i just am getting frusterated. and i think i'm just saying this cuz i'm mad at that fucking co worker of mine who thinks she can just make decisions like when she is gonna work... and i can't do that!and i can't tell on her... gah. i just don't know what to do.

i know how it feels colleen... i quit my last job because i wasn't being treated fair... maybe u should do the same if you're not too dependent on money right now... the job i have now is amazing, my boss is really good to me...
you should like move out with your bf, and have sex with him all the time because vince is good at ddr... and that way u guys can see more of each other and that would be cool... but yea, if your job is bringing u down, and u don't see yourself going anywhere with it. then get out of it... but i suggest u find another job before u quit... oh and could u get that doggie door estimate for me before u quit? my boss is gonna be lookin' for a receptionist type person in the next month or so... hehe... it's just life, don't let it get you down.

thanks for the advice bob :)
i would move in with vince, but i think his parents would shoot him, then shoot me! they are quite strict.... and my job? well, all in all, i love my job. i basically have it made. i think i was just jumping to conclusions lastnight, because today when i went in, it all evened out. that chick isn't taking all that time off now, cuz she fucked herself over and is really behind with her work. so, i think its all gonna be okay! and thanks again for replying! good to know someone actually reads my rambles!
