blackjohn Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 That sucks. One of my mentors once told me, "the only reward you get for working hard is more work." Sadly, it often seems to be true. My Home on the Web The Pirate Brethren Gallery Dreams are the glue that holds reality together.
Rumba Rue Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 CRAPPY!!! It's almost midnight, I'm still at work, and I just found out the girl who has only been at my job for a year is now making more money than me.I've been working at this place for almost 5 years and I always get excellent reviews, work my butt off, take on extra responsibilities and I'm a team player. I think I might just be getting screwed! Actually that can't be, if I was getting screwed I might enjoy it.... Depending on the relationship you have with your bosses, you might just want to ask nicely why?
Rogue Mermaid Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 (edited) I have a decent relationship with the boss, but he'll be pissed at the coworker for telling me she got a raise (she told me the percent and how much cash per year it equaled. That's how I figured out her pay rate. Slightly evil of me, but it was driving me nuts). She's become a good friend, so I wouldn't want to get her in trouble. You can bet I'll ask for a raise though when my review comes up in January. Sadly, I think the real reason why is because my company knows they can take advantage of me and they think I don't notice. Oh well, tonight I only had to work until 9:30. It's better than midnight!!! Edited October 3, 2008 by Rogue Mermaid
Christine Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Tired, not really looking forward to work this morning, but glad it's Friday. Been working since last Saturday. I'm going to crash so hard when I get home later on today and not answer my phone this weekend. Next week is going to be another long work schedule as well. I go back on Monday and go all the way into next weekend and into next week, finally getting another day off on Thursday the 16th, ugh.....
Cheeky Actress Posted October 15, 2008 Posted October 15, 2008 My throat feels horrible. It started as stuffy nose and a feeling of fullness in my right ear. The when I awoke this morning my throat was on fire and I have very little voice to speak of. This becomes a bit of a problem seeing that half my day I spend talking to people on the phone or paging. Damn it hurts! Member of "The Forsaken"
BriarRose Kildare Posted October 16, 2008 Posted October 16, 2008 Awww, Cheeky, I hope you are feeling better soon.

LadyBarbossa Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 Hope you feel better here soon, Cheeky :::hugs::: Poor lass. That sucks, Rogue Mermaid. That's no fair, either. Welp, I'm slightly cheering up. Thanks, Syren. :) :::hugs::: for the call the other day. Kinda trying to keep a positive hope and mind in all this. Time to hunt for a job that will pay. Working for nigh two months without pay does NOT help. Hence, the need to sell my stuff On the other hand.... my toe hurts!!! I think I broke it. :::whimpers;:: let's just say, my sister's couch attacked me. Ok, ok... I stubbed my baby toe against the couch by accident. IT HURTS!!! Oh, well.

Oh, geez luv, that's not good! Is it maybe only anxiety? If it starts to subside when you rest and stay calm it could only be anxiety. What's stressing you out? Hope things get better.

Merrydeath Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 not feeling great either.. I spent the day in the old garage with dust and bird droppings.

I hope you feel better soon! LadyB, as always you are in my prayers.

Damn it hurts! ditto, unfortunatley.. I had a runny nose and it turned into a runny nose, a cough, plugged ears, and a throat that feels like tabasco is running thru it. Mine is dust related tho.. and I work on the phone too.. should be interesting! I hope you feel better soon, Cheeky! I think mine is all allergy. I guess the harvest is pretty dusty this year, and with all the flooding, it made it a bit wetter. Hopefully it will freeze soon, and the allergies will go poof!

I hate being sick. kudos to all the others with allergy/ cold bugs.. a hot tea with lemon and honey fer ya. Pirate Lass with sass, brass, a cutlass, an a nice *ss.

BriarRose Kildare Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Tired...it has been a long day. Worked at an event then went to a friends house to do readings. I'm worn out.

LadyBarbossa Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Wasn't feeling well at all yesterday; ill. Feeling better but bummed.

LadyBarbossa Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Depressed. Bitchy cause someone decided to post in my thread under Thieves Market trying to overshadow my desperate need to sell my stuff! Not sure what else to do. Hate to sell what I have since the vast majority of it is heirlooms given to me by family. Again, just.... majorly bummed out. ~Lady B Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!"

Rogue Mermaid Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Getting really excited about Halloween. I love it! I got the willies watching Paranormal State last night and now I am really in the "spirit". I was spooked all night and kept waking up because I thought I was hearing voices, turned out my boyfriend was talking in his sleep! Nothing weirder than waking up at 3am to , "Heeeeelllooooooo".
Rev.Sam Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Tired. A long day at school, and then I have me some auditions t'night. Yar

BlackSwanRogue Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Oooh, excited! It tis almost Halloween. Like the Black Swan, I am Nocturnal, Ageless and Eternal.
Christine Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Glad that I'm not working on Halloween this year. I don't have a clue as to what I'm doing, but at least I'm free from work, yay!
Capt. Sterling Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Right then, none of the kids are allowed to wear Halloween costumes to school tomorrow... BUT all the other teachers have come up to me and asked if the captain was coming in. I said no, and they all couldn't understand why...."But it wouldn't be Halloween without the captain!" I thought it would be sending a mixed message to the kids... do as I say not as I do... so now all the kids are allowed to come dressed as their favorite hero...Damn and I was all packed for PiP!!! "I being shot through the left cheek, the bullet striking away great part of my upper jaw, and several teeth which dropt down the deck where I fell...
