I had such a bad day at work that Mizumono!Hannibal has become relatable to me.

Everything is unfair! Everyone is hostile! They’re all being very mean to me specifically! A person I had trusted has disappointed me greatly!

Me, in my feelings.

(No one is being mean or hostile. I made a mistake, and I’m just catastrophizing, anticipating that I’ll get in trouble, and assuming - without evidence - that I’ll get told to follow a different process that’s unreasonably slow and just as error-prone but in a different way, that I’m pretty sure no one else actually follows, either. But that’s all 100% in my imagination at this point. And the person I’m disappointed in may have honestly been trying to be polite by not bringing the problem to me directly, because they may have just missed my two (2) emails, and assumed I was still on vacation. There is no justifiable reason for me to be as upset as I am.)

But the point is, I am CRANKY. And ANXIOUS. And UNREASONABLY SAD.

And if I were, like 200% 2000% more unhinged, I could see how I might want to stab a conveniently-available innocent teenager (who did nothing wrong, ever) about it.

Having a totally reasonable and proportionate one tonight!

…and then, I guess, run off to Europe with my toxic backup-bae, who I’m pretty sure doesn’t even like me… ?

I’m in my tragically-bad suit era.

Seems like a solid plan. (It does not. This too shall pass.)

(I’m just so tired.)

I'm feeling very "If you've ever been a customer fuck you" today

“Why are there so many books?”

-Things I shouldn’t whisper under my breath in horror considering I work in a library, but here we are with 9 freaking book trucks of stuff to be weeded and I am losing my mind a little.

Just sayin'... (A Workplace Vent Sesh)

You know, it gets to me how employers expect their employees to put up with being treated like they're replaceable and still want to work their asses off for them.

I was just thinking about my last job that just fired me and frankly, I wanted to love that place and the people that led me. But as time went on and my job changed, I heard more and more from the supervisors about the attitude of the woman in charge of all of them, the very same one that got me my promotion and that used to be my supervisor before they hired a new one in the location I worked at...

... I started hearing about her "fire anyone that is even remotely out of line" attitude and it wasn't just one supervisor that said it. It wasn't even supervisors that would have been in touch with one another. It was 3 different supervisors, one of which had nothing at all to do with the other two...

... and just... the more I heard about her "oh, they inconvenienced you once? Fire them. Write them up. Put them on probation, just don't bother me with this" response and I'm like....... how heartless do you have to be to have that attitude, 1. And 2. how far up your own ass do you have to be to act like you're so important and everyone below you is replaceable?

Like... I've never understood how companies with that attitude expect their workers to put up with it? How they can act so surprised when they can't hold down an employee, either because they go on a firing spree or because everyone is sick to death of being treated like they're replaceable... how do you expect people to be told over and over "you mess up once, you're out of here" and not treat your company like it's replaceable after a while?

Oh, you want me to go out of my way for you so you can make more money? You want me to not make mistakes and piss off your customers? Then fucking treat me like a goddamn human being, not like a fucking robot whose entire existence is just to make you fucking money.

I hate the company I worked for. I hate the people in charge of that company. I loved the people in my level and below me, but other than that... fuck that company.

I think being fired from them is one of the best things to happen to me recently. I started to feel trapped because I was making decent money to work there, but the stress of hearing the kinds of things that were happening behind closed doors that they probably to this day don't realize I know...

Fuck them. Fuck them so damn hard. I hate corrupt business in America.

Fuck.

Work vent.

I try not to be boy crazy cause it’s not pretty but the pretty boy (21) that I work with is my ⭐️ve motivation

I don’t have intentions of doing anything with him though I pretend I do because … it makes me competitive especially since there’s this other skinny pretty girl (20) who’s shorter than me !!! That’s flirty with him.

Also I’m speculating that she’s flirting with the manager (late 30s) and most of the other kitchen male staff which honestly you do you gurl but like is this gonna me a thing ?? LOL 😹

Ever have a conversation with your boss that makes you somehow feel in your teeth just how close to the edge of burnout you’re teetering?

[this-love-is-delicate]

having the kind of day where I just want to retreat into someone's arms and sink into them and just let my brain get all fuzzy and slowly shut down

[persy-r-bozo]

Sending evil thoughts and rancid vibes to whoever thought case-sensitive variable names sounded like a fun idea.

Little Vent Post

Since starting T I’ve noticed that my adrenaline is more often (or at least more intensely felt than before) triggered with my anxiety and anxiety I can kinda push aside but the adrenaline is fucking relentless.

This would probably be fine for anyone else but I work in a factory for 10 hours a day sitting in a chair and nothing to think about other than whatever the hell is bothering me. And that’s before we factor in my untreated ADHD

But there were job cuts this week, never mind my personal problems, so I’ve spent all week like vibrating in my dinky chair. My supervisor like sat me down to make sure I felt safe enough to tell her if I need medical attention. I love that. That was good

Anyway that’s all. I’m just yelling into the void

[bardic-inspo]

Maybe I'm the bonkers one but I think it's real weird to assume you should be able to come and go freely from your spouse's place of employment 😶

[east-archive]

Generally I really like my coworkers but MAN. When those two feel like they are alone they talk so much shit about others, I really wonder of they have nothing else going on in their lifes??

At least they stopped trying to pull me in to their antics, gawd.

I simply think that if you stand in front of the employee access doors I should be allowed to run your dumb ass over with my pallet

Here is what work looked like today.

[queerlilchinchin]

Have a hiring event to attend today. It starts in 5 minutes and runs for 6 hours.

Really anxious to start a new physical labor job right now, considering I've been out of work for nearly 2 weeks due to a back injury and have thereby weakened my body, but I can't afford to keep going like this.

Yes, I should let my body rest but my bosses aren't willing to pay me to do that, so what am I supposed to do, make my future roommate and boyfriend pick up my slack? How is that fair to them?

It's a little infuriating working with the owners' daughter because she constantly gets away with doing nothing at work and getting paid to do nothing but I offer to do the less laborious stuff at work (like stocking and helping customers) but if I can't do everything, which is what I'm left doing when I work with their daughter, I'm worthless and need to stay home.

It's an infuriating feeling being told if I can't perform all duties I can't work. We have things I could be doing at work that'll ease the load of my coworkers. Im sure the other coworker would appreciate me at least being able to do those things. But instead, I'm told "until you feel 100% better and can do the heavy lifting, you need to stay home."

I'm not putting up with being told I have to do it all anymore and neither should he. I'm going to this hiring event and hopefully walking out with a job. 'Cause I'm done.
