Frustrated

Yes I bitch about my job a lot. I bitch about customers even more. I'm coming to the conclusion that I need out of my department. First money is an issue so if I were to leave my department I would only move to one that pays more. Second, some of my fellow employees are starting to get on my god damn nerves.

I would like to say that if you call out of work you better not let me find out you were having a good time or better yet, I don't want to hear you say to me "Oh you should have been there". Oh I should have you're right. The only problem with that was I was working double duty covering your sorry ass so you could have a good time. Now if you call out and you were to tell me “oh man i just really needed a day off" I'm cool with that. Don't give me any shit about parties or people being in town you havent seen in a while. I know for a fact that getting days off is easy, why? Because last week 4 people were on vacation during one of the busy weeks of the year for us. That week sucked and it looks like it's spilling over into this week. I just want everyone to be considerate to the people they work with especially if you like those people.

One day I was extremely dizzy and wanted to leave work early. I felt as if the room was spinning and since it's been busy at my job, I started feeling intimidated when people approached me. I couldn't leave early that day because there were 2 call outs. Now some people might say "hey if you’re sick your sick, if you don't leave it's your own fault". That is true, but what I will say to them is I care about the people I work with. I don't wish hardships on any of them. Well, maybe some of them I do now, but if I think I can some how tough it up I will. The thing about that day though was I kept sneaking off the floor and sitting down trying to maintain my composure.

A message to you all. When you call out to go to the beach, a party or whatever, and you work in a kind of job I work in, you're only hurting the people you work with not work for.
