Burning out at work so I took Friday off and working from home Mon. So tired of it. Though it's also fine in other ways? Could go on rant but won't. Will go home and eat and hug the bebe.
Mental health days off is real. May I ask what work you do?
Add me to the work dragged on forever group! The quarter ends Friday and the other teacher and I have been trying to get all the kids with missing work to catch up but it's like pulling teeth. A parent actually came in today and started yelling at us because she wasn't aware that her kid was missing almost 20 assignments. The other teacher and I both looked at each other like "are you fucking kidding me??" We sent home multiple papers with students who have missing assignments WITH all of the worksheets just in case "they lost the originals" and the director even sent out a school wide voicemail reminding parents that the grading period is ending and to check their kids red folders for info about their assignments! It's not my fault your kid didn't show you any of the papers we sent and that you're dumb enough to believe everything he tells you!! I had to sit in a meeting for almost an hour listening to this woman tell my director how terrible of a teacher I am and how I shouldn't have let him get so far behind and blah blah blah! I was so mad! I documented EVERY assignment update I sent out and EVERY break I made him stay in for so he COULD catch up but REFUSED! I can't physically make a child's pencil move so their work gets done! If I could my job would be way fucking easier! Eventually, after I showed her all of my evidence showing that I WAS trying to catch him up and I WASN'T ignoring him she calmed down realized that her "little angel" hasn't been telling her the whole truth! Ugh! I'm beyond over this week! We are going to have dinner with my parents and I already told my H that he's driving home and taking care of Z's bedtime stuff because I'm drinking!
ourcrazynavylife Good luck with house! I hope you can get an offer in soon. Fixer uppers scare me (mainly because I'd be the one doing all the work) but I love watching renovation shows! ashlantic the weather is just as crazy here in Florida. I drove through 4 pocket showers while looking at the sun lol BabyStandish I love starburst! A bartender I knew years ago used to make me a drink using the pink starburst! I have no idea what was in it but it was awesome and the main cause of 99% of my hangovers back then! Lol totally worth it though!
bkmama0 I hope you get a chance to recharge with a day off. kml218 sounds like you could use a day off! Sorry you had to deal with that. My blood would have been boiling.

I work in production at a digital media retailer (to be very vague) at a subsidiary of a Big Tech Corp, and am training in business intelligence on the side. Being at a "cool" company has some serious perks (um hello Bagel Wednesday lol) but there's also a lot of pressure, competition, backbiting (though that is seemingly getting better) and - at my level - I get seriously condescended to by douchey tech bros on a regular basis. Also I work on a team of all dudes who act like they're still in high school which is entertaining slash depressing slash I have to tiptoe around their dude egos whenever it comes to me being ambitious to move into a better position. Ugh! I ranted after all
I forgot how unpleasant AF is. Happy to have a cycle again, but please GTFO. Fx this day goes by quickly so I can go home and put on sweats.
yeah, AF PP sucks. Mine is still long but instead of light, heavy, light days all I get is heavy the whole time. Grrrr. I was actually sad that mine came back at 3 months PP and not when I stopped BF'ing like my obgyn told me.
Ugh same! I BF for 13 months and AF comes back in 3?!! WTAF.
Work was slightly more pleasant today. I think my principal has heard how horrific things are feeling for us. He bought us coffee and cookies and instead of making us do two hours of professional development, gave us the afternoon to work in our classrooms (we have half day Wednesday's for the kiddos).
Things with family are still shitty, but hopefully that will get better eventually.
LO learned how to give kisses today and it's adorable. Except he opens his mouth and basically swallows your face. Still cute!
