sakon76Ten hours at work, somewhere around eight of them on my feet. I don't care how much some of my coworkers praise the way I run the board, I know I'm never getting moved up from being hostess. I'm impatient with a good half of my coworkers, have nothing in common with them (their interests seeming to focus around getting drunk and dating multiple people at the same time or dating one person and practically using them to add to Tiffany's jewelry stashes), and find their lack of precision and tact annoying. It's not that I hate the job, it's just that I know I deserve something better. But I have a feeling there is no such thing as a job where one does not have to deal with people who grate and grate and grate at one. So I ended work today in a shitty mood after ten hours of enforced cheer. [Hate 'em, despise 'em, but never let it show. I should work for Disney.] Indulged myself when I got home with a phone call to my best friend, which was a dangerous matter. Fortunately she was in a good mood. If she hadn't been, I might've snapped at her, which lacks good manners. And tact. And all kinds of other good things.
The odd thing is that today started out so beautifully. I got feedback on LK 13 from Natalie, who found almost *nothing* wrong with the chapter. That should have made my day. And, really, it did. It's just that after ten hours of having no control of my actions, the board being run by first Amanda, then Shona, then my manager, my general view of the universe has transformed to a state of conviction that it is composed of a dearth of hope.
I am burnt out. I know I am burnt out. Unfortunately, I cannot afford to be burnt out.
N: Will reread Elemental 3 when I am recovered. Do not think you want any comments I would give at the moment on it or the other works....
So now I go to do homework. And hopefully catch up.
