When my friends and I enter work every morning

[himbeereule]

(please excuse my language. normally i don't swear, but i'm really not well right now.)

tomorrow is my birthday (fuck)

i also have a presentation tomorrow (i haven't started on it yet, and i don't have any powerpoint-esque software to begin with. fuck)

i also have two exams tomorrow (i wasn't present when we learned the stuff that'll get asked there, i haven't started trying to catch up, and there is no script or comparable materials to do that to begin with. fuck)

i went outside and there were too many people and my brain went "seems like a good time to start a major depressive episode!" (fuck)

i'll call in sick to school tomorrow because otherwise i'll 100% unalive myself (i already have trouble with my boss because of too many sick days - they were all during school blocs. idek why he cares as long as my grades are fine, but i might end up losing the job once my contract runs out. fuck)

i mean, i'm aware that i'm just whining, but seriously. how fucking unfair can the world be. with my set of issues, i should be dead or in a closed psychiatric facility. but because i happen to be really good at most things, people expect me to constantly overperform. which i can't. i barely function at all. i lost my last job because of too many sick days; two days later, they hired me back because the whole department fell apart without me. when my boss at my current job warned me about the number of sick days (even though almost all of them were during school blocs which i'll be done with next year anyway) he told me i only have a chance still because if i'm there 80% of the time i'm still way more productive than others who are never sick.

don't know where i'm going with this - again, just pathetic whining, feel free to ignore - but the bitterness has to go somewhere i guess. i stumbled through the entire school system, every single teacher/professor i had was like "oooh, you're really good, i expect great things from you" and then did EXACTLY NOTHING to help with that - on the contrary, they actively hindered me by insisting on petty bureaucratic bullshit. so now i'm stuck with a mediocre upper-level graduation paper that makes me a "specialist worker" but also bars me from studying any of the things i actually could get through despite my issues; and i can't keep any job, because, despite outperforming pretty much everyone in productivity in all my jobs, i can't get consistent attendence rates, and HR shift planners hate that.

welp, i'll try to work on the project(s) at least. don't want to disappoint everyone here as much as i'm disappointing myself and everyone else.

(also, it feels so fucking weird to add tags to this, like... my immediate reaction is "huh? i'm not writing this to get attention, i don't need tags!"; but then i realize i am absolutely doing this for attention, because note number go up makes brain give dopamine shot like one of these early 2000s coin machines where you'd get grimy 10 year old candy if you tricked the mechanism into working... still not adding all the diagnosis tags though this time, the guilt i'd feel over this isn't worth the potential extra readers)

nervous breakdown looming over my shoulder can u fuck OFF

September 29th 2024

i need a job just as much as I need a bear to eat off my face. Working is a horrific experience. Though, it is fortunate I get to do it from home. My psychotic brain is far too gone to even possess the courage to work in an office again. I fear loosing my job. It is very good for someone like me, or rather better than the alternative. Still though I hate it with every wish I ever made to be free from it.

I want to scream at every face I pass by, exclaim "This isn't normal! What is a life spent working!? Shall we all die together slowly? Shall we all hold hands and allow the tides to swallow us up? Are we really going to sit here and watch the rape of humanity occur to everyone we have ever known or loved?"

But I am a hypocrite, I march along with all of you, toiling in my office chair.

Working in a corporate environment with relatively young people who are willing to shill for the company drives me insane.

I'm packing with a minute left to the time? Can it with your "you have a minute left hahaha". It's no longer a joke if all of you say it every day. Especially if you know a minute might make me lose a bus and have to wait 20 minutes in 30ªC+ heat

I need to go to the doctor and you tell me to connect from home afterwards till I finish my 8 hours? Which country are you living in, ours has unlimited time for specialist appointments. Why would you want anyone to waste their life for the company, if they get to leave a bit early because of an appointment good for them. My bosses being people in their 30s at most, thus around my age, makes it even sadder. Why are you a shill and a slave to your job so young, it's not like you're resigned after years of working. The only thing you achieve with all of this is that I won't want to stay a minute overtime or ever arrive ahead.

Do you think the company will thank you? You're nothing to them. We're just one team within several hundred thousand employees (at the very least). Micromanaging only makes your coworkers miserable, it won't get you a promotion, efficiency will.

Do you have any visuals we could see to better help imagine Dale? Or any art of the time period?

@itspeacheslover

thanks for asking! i'm honestly not a great visual person tbh and since these are reader insert i try not to give too many specifics so everyone can have some freedom in how they picture Dale more suited to their tastes.

however, please see this post i made answering a similar ask as well as my tag "dale appearance" which doesn't have much but will continue to be where any post's i've made about his looks can be found and is how i will tag anything i reblog that vibes with his style lol

also, the lovely art @roguetraining made of Dale is of course available to behold

In a painful irony, the director at my former place of work is giving a presentation on "upward bullying" (management being bullied by employees) at an international conference. Since she took the leadership position two years ago three people have left the org specifically because of her.
