Tim: *sleep deprived* Yes! Great plan!
Jason: *pauses* Wait, isn't your girlfriend blonde?

Pray for me please, I’m having problems at work that are 90% my fault and I have to discuss it with my supervisor tomorrow.
#the funny thing is I said to my supervisor ‘I feel like I’m doing great on 80% of the work it’s just that last 20%’#and then I got my appraisal and sure enough. 3 ‘needs improvement’ out of 15 areas of evaluation.#actually the REALLY funny thing is one of the other managers thought I was already fired and got me a nice present for my last day

you’ve heard of secondhand embarrassment now get ready for secondhand heartbreak!!
#i hate company policies sometimes#one of my guys had a very tragic death in his family but cousins aren’t covered under bereavement time#which is the most bullshit thing#i too am very close to my cousins i even consider them my like. pseudo siblings#he ended up sending HR a ‘strong’ statement about and like. i fucking agree lol#i just feel so bad for him. and even worse cause i wrote him up for attendance last month#and he cited family issues as part of why he no-called one day which like i get#so he was already not feeling Great about work#god it just sucks being a supervisor sometimes like having to hold that accountability#(*all the time)#but also wanting to just fold and give them whatever they want lol#if he does quit cause of this i won’t blame him#mk’s work woes

ANOTHER fun supervisor anecdote for you guys. we were having dinner and my co-supervisor had just told an insane story about her ex and i was like OH! have i told you guys a story about my insane ex? to which my other supervisor went “im sure you have but im dying to hear it anyway” and then during another conversation i said something along the lines of “yeah i just try to never wear white shirts because i spill a lot” and my supervisor went “what are you TALKING about you wear them all the time???” like observant king??
#teddy.txt#oh same guy also said ‘you’re great because you make me feel so much less old. this is excellent because my kids think i’m cool now’#sometimes a friendship is a 27 year old phd student and his 38 and 57 year old supervisors

Dying a little bit because the source I've been spending the most time with (other than Burton) for my melancholia project is Johann Freitag's 1678 Kurtzer Bericht von der Melancholia Hypochondriaca, which is a fascinating, fairly dense read that clearly has a lot of valuable information, but the thing is:
My German is already not amazing, and this is Early Modern, Fraktur-printed nonsense that I'm really struggling through
There is like no scholarship on the author or the book. Which really makes me want to write about it, since it would probably look good to consult a lesser-known source instead of just re-treading ground everyone else has already covered (like Burton), but also. Especially with my limited German. How do I do that confidently.
And this is a one-semester undergrad research project, not a PhD thesis or anything, so I really don't know how far I should try to chase it, but the part of me that yearns for grad school is going bonkers.
#i put out a distress call to early modern bluesky just in case anyone else has taken a look at this book#but my supervisor (who is a respected tenured professor nearing retirement and knows this field well) had never even heard of it#i'm probably going to ask for his help trying to learn more about the book and author too. but i don't know how much he can help#if no one's studied it no one's studied it#like listen. i get that 'i discovered a fantastic source no one else has written much about' is kind of a great problem to have#but also i wish i was better equipped to tackle it you know#history of science

Congratulations on finishing your PhD! Have you considered becoming evil.
thank you!! most beloved anon i consider it every single day of my life 😌
#my supervisor said to me after she announced my grade#''i hope you develop some ambition''#which is. frankly. a great point of departure for becoming evil. girl you did not specify the ambition's direction#(she meant it kindly as in she hopes i consider staying in research but. what if evil instead)#asks

I am awake and getting ready for work, but at what cost.
#please let me hear back positively about job applications today#because I have a check in with my supervisor and I can just sense it’s going to be awkward and not great#and I just need to know I have active alternatives and ways out

I got Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen volume 3 a little early and guys.... GUYS!! THIS is what Kitchen in English should be like! 💥💝💖
If you like Orufrey, you have got to get volume 3!
#I don't know if the homophobic supervisor or whoever got moved to another project or what... BUT THANK YOU! 💝💝💝#FINALLY! SOME GOOD FOOD!#I mean I am still side-eyeing the end of chapter 30 because Olruggio's line Should be about how they're finally living under the same roof.#BUT OH MY GOD what a difference everything else makes#They mention alcohol! They admit the loop chalices are usually for wine!!#The word choices for how delicious the food is is so great!#I'm gonna have to look up wtf the bananas are named after but aside from that!!!#Qifrey and Olruggio can actually say each others names and they're so friggin adorable!!! 😤💝 Mr I can go all day!!#I'm so happy ya'll I can't believe it 😭💝#I feel so hopeful for volume 4 now#Also I'm half-way wondering if maybe they could revisit the translations for volumes 1 and 2 and maybe release an updated version maybe?#because I would absolutely buy those again if it were less censored and had better word choices. Just putting it out there! ❤#Like maybe after volume 5 do a box-set with a little bonus item maybe and secretly slide-in the more accurate and better translated version#I'd buy it! I'd be first in line!!#Just sayin!#Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen#Witch Hat Kitchen#Orufrey#Witch Hat Atelier#Also there's some REALLY cute moments with the girls#(I say; as a total afterthought; sorry I'm so transparent lmao)#Jade talks WHA

#definitely not feeling my best lately#the end of the semester is always hard#bc understandably im tired#but have to study more than during the semester for the upcoming finals#but really it's more than that#ive been trying to make peace with who i am academically but it seems impossible#i can't fit in anywhere#not with the ~great~ students bc im not good enough#not with the indifferent students bc i study all the time#and there's this prof who thinks im deliberately downplaying my skills#which is both frustrating and painful bc im literally giving it my best already#im just not that smart!!#you know i was positively excellent back in school#and now im average#not bc im not trying#im doing my absolute best!#what else am i supposed to do?#so now it feels like befriending my lab partner was a mistake#i adore her but she's so brilliant and i feel like im dragging her down with me#it also feels like asking my favorite professor to be my thesis supervisor was a mistake too#bc i adore him as well and he thinks way too highly of me#and i am so going to let him down#oof#txt

The way that my supervisor didn't want to train me on this task before she went on vacation, so she said to me, to our coworkers, and to our boss that I wouldn't need to do it, said it was too complex and difficult and I would need hands on training to learn how do it when she got back...
And now I have to find a way to do it not once, not twice, but at least four times without her help.
Sure. Why not.
#i knew this was going to happen#anyway hi hello im alive ive just been slammed because i got all of my supervisors work dumped on me for a week and only got#trained on about 30% of it because she is not a great teacher

#ok so mini rant session#i am doing a bit better today - little less distraught over getting fired from a job i thought i was doing pretty good at and i was trying#really hard and genuinely enjoying#and just more baffled because truly i had no warning and i was completely blindsided#i was in the middle of a 3 month trial and i would have a review at the end in which i would be offered a permanent position if it went well#and i thought i was making my way towards that! granted i was still making mistakes but genuinely not of such a great scale i thought it#called for my immediate dismissal#that being said i was still VERY MUCH IN TRAINING. i had only been there A MONTH AND A HALF learning COMPLETELY NEW SYSTEMS#and i was told that i had been there a few weeks already and that i wasn’t catching on quick enough. that there were some areas i was#understanding and others i just simply wasn’t#and i asked what areas specifically so that i could learn more and try harder#and they didn’t give me a specific answer.#ok and so. so. i have this insecurity.#that at first impression people will like me. that they may think i’m pretty or kind or funny or whatever#but then they spend time with me or get to know me and realize that that’s all bullshit.#that i’m actually not pretty and im mean and loud and selfish and lazy and rude and etc etc etc#MASSIVE fucking insecurity in that like that’s why i genuinely don’t have friends or a significant other#and that genuinely i’m just a Bad Person#and when i was fired? i was told ‘a persons true colours show after a few weeks’#so that’s MAJORLY fucking me up.#when i was hired i was boasted to about my boss’s hiring process and how she’s ’only been fooled twice’#and the morning before i was fired in a meeting my supervisor told everyone that i was doing quite well.#so yeah i truly had no fucking warning. at fucking all.#hurt and confused and angry and baffled and did i mention hurt#anyways if you’re still here i’m sorry i know this is not a good look for me
