We finally got a new hire at work! Yay!

...except the New Hire is already talking about quiting.
Also she doesn't want to work her shift, she asked for my shift instead.
Also she doesn't want Graveyard at all, so wants to transfer as soon as possible.
Also she has had two weeks of training and says it isn't enough, so I have to work her shifts for another week.
Also I have to work my shifts as well, so I get eight shifts this week. For a total of 70+ hours. Since my co-workers decided to make it so nobody but me has to work extra.
Also the bitch broke the fucking office chair we all have to share because she's so overweight and now it won't roll and it makes an awful scraping noise on the concrete.

Why. The fuck. I... just don't understand. Why won't the universe put on some lipstick? Why won't it wine and dine me? If it's going to fuck me, I at least want that out of it.

I've had a lot of experience with my RP being shat upon by someone else and needing a timestop... and not getting it.

For example. Let's say we have two characters. Bill, and Tom.Tom and Bill get into an argument and Bill decides to PK Tom. Staff is called in and, somehow, things go sideways. There are some really hinky things going on during the scene and the staffer stretches the hell out of (or even breaks) some of the rules.

Tom asks for a timestop so other staff can sort out the mess. Power A, by the book, doesn't work like the staffer said and there is no houserule on record about it. Power B either. Also Bill's friends Hank and Gary showed up right as the PK was happening despite being in a TS scene with Sue when things started, across town.

Staff refuses to timestop it because it would 'inconvenience' multiple players, but says staff will review the scene later and fix things as needed. Tom dies in the scene, as expected. A week passes. Two weeks. Staff rules that 'Yes, rules were broken but too much RP has passed so Tom is still dead'. Bill gets a finger shaken at him and told not to do it again. The end.

...so yes. When in doubt? Timestop everyone. TImestop -everyone-. Because this situation has happened to me multiple times, and it's bullshit.

I'm sick. Bad reaction to a shot I think. Feel awful, nausea, headache, fever... etcetera.

But. The one upside? There is no better feeling in the world than taking a shower when you're starting to recover from being sick. I swear. It's almost worth feeling bad in the first place.

Forget medicine. Give me hot water.

That feeling when you have the absolute worst night of your life. Like... absolute worst. Horrible night. Driving home in the middle of a storm trying to figure out a reason to keep living. And then it comes to you.

Well, at least work hired someone new and I'll get a day off, maybe. A day off to think about things. To reassess my life and begin the process of rebuilding.

Then you get to work, and guess what? Your 6.5 days a week shift? Well they just tacked two more shifts onto your schedule this week because a co-worker who works 4 days a week was feeling stressed out and needed time off.

And by the way, they didn't hire anyone this month. Mid-March at the earliest.

...I'm not suicidal. I'm not. Hell I'm not even depressed. I just hate the idea of existence. The concept of being. Because fuck it.

P.S. - On the plus side I don't live in a third world country. I mean. Imagine how shitty it would be to hate life -and- have no food or clothing or air conditioning.

Hugo got facepunched to death.

Nevermind that I had to cancel my first date in months for tomorrow and the girl is pissed and won't talk to me now, on top of it all.

Time for me to slide into a nice clinical depression.

Trying to call in sick to work and finding out none of your co-workers will cover for you.

Then getting a call an hour later from someone telling you to come in three hours early because they have a family emergency.

I told them no. Things were dragged up the corporate ladder. Apparently my supervisor didn't report my attempt to call in sick at all, and expedited their 'emergency' call-in. What's the emergency? Well their adult daughter is in the hospital with some sort of minor injury and they want to visit them.

Whereas I've been puking my guts up all day and can't stand up more than a few minutes without vertigo.

...I'm just about done with this shit.

I didn't like Myst. I tried Firewatch and didn't like it either.

Maybe I'm just not pretentious enough.

Driver: I'm going to X location.

Me: X location is loading over at the yard. You'll need to wait until daylight.

Driver: I go load at Y.

Me. No, sir. You can't load there. That's a different product. You'll need to wait until daylight.

Driver: Is okay. I go load at Y. If none I go wait.

Me: No, sir. You won't. That's a different, more expensive product.

Driver: Is okay. I load at Y.

So I call. There's a big goddamn kerfuffle over it. They let the driver load.

I get the call an hour later chewing me out for not stopping him from loading with my magical fucking powers to override the people who do the loading.

...You speak English, you piece of shit. I want to punch you in your stupid fucking frog-face every time you mispronounce your Vs as Bs and refuse to understand me.

Fuck my job, fuck the company I'm subcontracted out to, and fuck everyone I have to deal with. Fuck all of you reading this too.

When you're in the middle of no days off until Mid-March and you're about to start job hunting...

And your boss tells you he's retiring in two-three months and he's putting your name up the ladder for his replacement.

I'm not guaranteed the job, but it's JUST ENOUGH to keep me from bailing. Those sneaky, sneaky dicks. Now I'm going to suffer through it in the slim hopes that I get the promotion and when I don't get it I'll be back to job hunting, only 2-3 months further down the road.

I'm furious.

That feeling you get when you finally get a day off after a month of no days off?

It's a lie. Because then they turn around and you don't get another day off until Mid-March. Also you work double shifts seven days in a row because lolsomeoneonvacation.

So close to just dropping this job.

I used to be really into D/s RP when I was younger.

Now that I'm older I've grown to realize that it takes way too much time and energy to maintain. Time and energy I would rather spend elsewhere.

Sounds good to me. You've got me on Steam so just hit me up there whenever.

Anyone else who wants me on Steam, my current user name is El Jefe Fishman.

So when do you guys play? How do I get in on it? I promise I'm terrible at the game.

I went ahead and got Armello on Steam. And X-Com 2. And now I have to pay my taxes. Goodbye, money.

Everyone's all philosophical.

Are they going to sit around in togas and drink poison?

I gave it a downvote too. How dare you try to open a game.

I guess I could buy Armello when I get home. I was going to buy X-Com 2, but I've been waffling so hard on it already that I'm probably going to wait for it to go super cheap.

I've been considering buying Armello, I just don't have anyone to play it with.

I sympathize, but my nickname is 'El Jefe'.

If people wanna call me the boss? They're damn well welcome to.
