#with no overtime or benefits

@nnoiffu replied to your post “funniest thing about being medicated for ADHD is...”:
moving from art to business was the best decision i ever made and now im an analyst and i would not trade it for anything
yeah i feel like you get me lol especially because i know you and i share very similar views of both our capitalist hellscape + value in art ( creating, and receiving; visual, written, or otherwise )
i am having a lovely time drawing daily again, focusing on improving fundamentals again and revisiting projects/ideas i've had for years. tomorrow i am hosting a three hour figure drawing session in an art discord, and i'm really excited about it. i am actually struggling to play video games, because i am just more interested in drawing all the time, and it feels great.
and honestly one of the last things i want to do right now is try to take all that, and the enjoyment i'm getting out of it, and adjust it to the current environment of professional art - one of the og hustle cultures lol.
#like if a decent paying and secure job making art landed in my lap i'd be all for that#but those uh..... barely seem to exist these days LOL#and especially not for new artists trying to push into the industry#when every company would rather just do as much as possible through cheap contract work#or layoff every employee below a certain level after each project#i'm not especially interested in having to fight against the literal industry so much#to have a job/freelance effort where being overworked is the given#obviously there's a degree of that everywhere because The Problem is Capitalism™#but certainly some fields of employment have different recipes of exploitation than others#and idk i might be naive about the specifics of other careers. maybe book keeping is actually super cut throat#but i don't /think/ i see entire think pieces about why book keepers had to go through 3 months of crunch#with no overtime or benefits#before getting laid off by bethesda or w/e

Holy fuck I am so ANGRY and idk what to do
#basically like. okay I was hired for the job I have rn with the intent of being a ‘part time’ employee#I am currently a ‘casual’ employee which means no benefits and no promised hours#but I’ve been working 35 hours/week#to compensate for missing out on those things ‘casuals’ get $5/hour extra#I was TOLD that casuals also did not get overtime pay or holiday pay or anything#and then was told I had to get my paperwork to transition in to part time submitted RIGHT NOW IMMEDIATELY#or else it wouldn’t be in until the new year#right okay so I wanted the 250% salary increase for holiday pay on Christmas and NY’s so I got the paperwork in#only to discover#after I got the fucking paperwork in#that casuals ALSO GOT 250% PAY ON CHRISTMAS#and the same overtime pay rules as part time employees#the only difference is paid leave and I won’t work there long enough for paid leave to matter that much#SO I BASICALLY JUST THREW $5/HOUR INTO THE DUMPSTER#and now I have to work 4 days a week to make what I was making working 3 days a week?????#when I already fucking hate this job???#and like idt it was intentional but I was mislead by my boss like she had the incorrect information#and it would’ve been one thing if I knew this in advance so I just ~*oopsies*~ didn’t get the paperwork in#but now that I DID get the paperwork in I can’t undo it without being like hey yeah I actually don’t want the entire reason why I was hired#I’m so fucking goddamn ANGRY#idk what the fuck to do#like that’s $200 entire dollars less per week#LIKE $1000/MONTH#ONE FUCKING PLANE RIDE HOME PER MONTH#I had started feeling like things were turning around as well and life just fucking DECKS me all over again#I don’t know what the fuck to do#I can’t fucking believe this

My new plan of action is to be more unapologetically me at work while still being work me because I am fucking tired of everything and my lack of fucks has apparently hit a new level so instead of fretting about that I am just accepting the damage periods of unemployment does to my personality (work personality? Ability to maintain said personality?) And going with it. If it works great. If it doesn't then they gotta fire me it is whatever I am not even pretending like I care to make a cookie cutter impression.
#i taught my boss's boss how to sneak alcohol into venues at the end of the day (she asked. usually i would be like oh idk about all that.#nah fuck it whatever i got you) but i also balanced it with explaining how working for promoters works because her teenager daughter has#some overlapping interests and i was like ohhh well let me tell you what she should look into when she turns 18 but some of them she might#need to wait till 21#so maybe itll be okay despite the hiccup with me learning how their pto police kinda fucking sucks and i acted like it could be a deal#breaker. but said maybe not i would have to wait and see.#which is true. i didnt fake it i went full “idk if i really need this job but lets see if i *want* this job instead* ya know yall seem like#great ppl doing great work 😌D#did send them into a panic accidentally at the end of the night like “thank you all for your help today and everything” and homegirl was#like leaning back in her chair like o#*like 🤨 oh shit? but no i meant just with training in general#should not have worded it like that because it did sound like i was about to be like “but this isnt the right fit for me so I wont be back#nooooo. whoops. lmao.#i realize this is from the accumulation of my personal flaws and my general abrasiveness but#they shouldnt let me start at new orgs this many times. they should because i sadly need money and a career but really.#i like to think my skill hard work and extremely decent attendance makes it balance out#but i do think i am like hi im here to ruffle your feathers because i do not have the attitude you are expecting as an employer in#(redacted) but it is gonna be like. just enough it might l#*piss some ppl off but not enough for others. but some of you will adore me. you probably shouldnt#but you will. in fact you may cry if i leave as historical proof shows.#and oh i will leave. eventually. because i fucking love leaving#but if you cant figure that out from my resume and took me at my word (fair tho) then that is on you#hopefully though this is okay and i can stay put 2-3 years and promote or transfer. their pto sucks less after 3 years anyways because#that policy becomes less of an issue#but idk. we shall see. they also have blackout months for time off. which like. i am also not keen on.#but like they do also offer overtime those same months so ehhhh#i like extra money but kinda also hate working weekends. so idk.#like is that a benefit? i dont know that that offsets it.#im picky because shittier employers in shittier jobs had better time off benefits so. like cmon now.#-pers

can't believe I'm a full time part time employee
#kinda want to talk to my boss like 'so... if I'm a part time employee why am I working full time?'#but I know the answer.. the store would literally shut down lmao#we're so short staffed we had to shorten our hours today since someone couldn't make it in#and the other manager is in the hospital...#if they paid better they'd probably get more employees!!!!#the freaks!!!!!!!#but at least my last day is wednesday lmfao even tho my new job is having issues with the paperwork I put in my two weeks#as soon as they were like 'we wanna move forward with you pls do a background check' I went to my current job and was like I'M OUT#working full time to the point of overtime without the benefits is not the move but it makes me feel powerful in a way#I'm the one who decides if the store stays open! >:I#.................... lichrally screw this place but anyone who's responsible enough to still be around is actually cool#so at least I mostly like the ppl#personal

Dear Diary,
Today with my day off from work I: 1) deep cleaned my bathroom; 2) deep cleaned the kitchen; 3) vacuumed the whole house including cleaning dust bunnies and stuff from around the baseboards; 4) hung some pictures; 5) baked cookies for two get-togethers; 6) made needed changes to my D&D character to reflect a new level, so he’s ready for tomorrow’s game; 7) washed the couch-covering blanket and put it back on; and 8) played with Penny outside so she enjoys enrichment.
And there’s still time to do more!!
#kidk says stuff#I was going over all the Tasks I’d have to do to prepare for this weekend and normally I would’ve been like hnnnngh oh no#but since bast had to go to work overtime today instead I just felt like I was being very helpful to do all the things!#one nice thing is I don’t have to cook dinner tonight cause we’ve got leftovers of my bombass chicken meatball spaghetti#((ps cleaning my bathroom doesn’t just benefit me; I take the bathroom guests use too!))

Soon!! Soon I'll see him again! My most handsome and wonderful @solunest ! For now, have a Jaith and Emeryll chibi doodle I'm sending him
Cosmos above, I am anxious and want this wait to be DONE alreadyyyy.. I am a strong man, but DAMN IT I WANNA SMOOCH MY HUSBAND Ò^Ó

(May open commissions soon to help fund things, we shall see)
#jack screaming into the void#husband tag!!#i also may be moving a LOT sooner than expected ^^;;#which means the rare Jack/Jacket commissions may open up!#granted i am swamped with work#but i would benefit from the extra cash#and I cant get overtime at my place of work#its not something they allow#so commissions would be a good option to help me have a lil extra to move with

probably not such a hot take over here but we need to abolish the 40 hour work week and it needs to stop being the norm right now
#im privileged to be able-bodied and mentally well enough to be able to work a job#and i dont even dislike having a job. when i was unemployed for 3 months i was so restless because i had nothing to do with my time#and no money#but i will never be able to work 40 hours a week. consistently. every week of every year.#i was for a short time when i was working in childcare/disability services but i was literally a suicidal zombie#and the fact that most people have to work MORE than this? just to make ends meet? and sometimes they cant even do that?#and a lot of full time/overtime positions STILL offer little to no benefits!!#it's straight up cruel as fuck. cruel and unusual.#and dont even get me started on how america views disabled people who cannot and will never be able to work at all#politics#mj rambles

i think i might go forward w the full time position at my job. happy yet defeated.
#pros:#its salaried w benefits and guaranteed hours#my manager HIGHLY recommended me for the position and talked to the hr manager before i even emailed her#i could also use the structure#cons:#my hourly rate is $22 but the salary is between 34k and 36k aka i'm dropping down to $16-$17#its an ''average of 40 hours a week'' aka 8 hours mon-fri but i'm definitely gonna be scheduled on weekends its gonna be 6-7 days a week#and NO overtime. same salary for like 56 hours a week#its def exploitation#but i think i'd rather have a guaranteed lower paycheck than a promised but not fulfilled higher paycheck#esp since summer is coming up and hours are gonna get ROUGH

writing villains be like
Me: *wants to write a good, comprehensible villain whose motives make sense, and the amount of effort they put into their schemes doesn't feel like overkill for the sake of the plot* Also me: "😭 aw poor baby is so hurt!! so angst😔 Everything you do is valid for your current mental state, bless🙏 you're allowed to reek mayhem because of that one betrayal that you probably could've gotten over, but a baddie gotta be bad💅🔥 and nobody understands, but I do it's okie king 👑💖"
#It keeps me up at night#all of my characters are my children and I am biased#are ya'll like this too?#surface level he seems so basic but I promise there's more to him#the fuel for revenge builds up overtime and my dude is just comsumed by it#morals are out the door cause he has nothing to lose and no one to be better for#he's that unnecessarily cruel type. If he has to suffer then so do u bich#he would benefit from thearpy so much and some hugs probably#sad villains are somethin else#lowkey don't wanna kill him cause my boy is just tragic and I want him to heal- but also#he's terrible and deserves a bad end for being so extra in the evil department#ya'll understand where I'm coming from right?#writing#writing problems#writing villains#writing fantasy#writing characters#writer problems#no idea how to tag this#writing ocs

One of my new supervisees is the biggest bootlicker I’ve ever met and I genuinely have no idea how to deal with this power dynamic
#I do not want to be a supervisor and dealing with this is just#baffling#how do you gently say ‘do less?’#and ‘you’re actually pissing everyone off with the overenthusiasm and attempts at unpaid overtime’#“I’m a caregiver and I just really want to help people!’’ why do you think you’re so far above your clients#that they can’t function for ten minutes without your meddling#your clients are not benefitting from you infantilizing them and you are definitely not impressing me

#lucky to have all my insurances and shit outside of work so i don't need the benefits#there's no reason for me to work 40hrs.. yes i would benefit from more monee but not at the cost of working w this full body ache i have#i've been gone fr a month and they basically gave me 40hrs right away. yall. yall i regularly lift over half my weight at that place#i went an hour overtime yesterday which is okay bc i knew i was gonna call out today lol. Goodbye
