Or across the plank! :D

Me: Is this the blah blah blah account for blah blah blah client?
Coworker: Remember when I showed you this last week?
Me: No, that is why I am asking you now.

I think I need a better response to that however! I have had 2 coworkers do this-one from previous job, one from current job. I think it is just thier way of trying to say, "I Told you this once last week during the really brief training and I expect you to remember it all"

:D

Well now i think I am just annoying the poor gal.
I sent a message clarifying what my next step was on an open ticket
and she sends me back a message in all caps.
Wonderful.
Just wonderful.
Made me want to stop talking to her for a minute. Then I had another question. Fuck. So I paused. But then I just dove right back in.
I don't know what is wrong w/ people today that they can't train someone on something or that they expect them to remember it right away-and of course there are no help guides or manuals to this. So I take my own notes and write everything down the best I can to learn it.
SHEEESH PEOPLE!

I feel like I am going to regret not taking more advantage of the place I am at now. I mean maybe I could have taken more of an effort to learn more-but I really don't do well when left on my own. I hate that, but that is how I am-not that I can't work on my own-but when I am still in training and unsure I don't just jump in. But also-there are countless emails that haven't been responded to-it has been a frustrating experience for sure. I guess I wish I got more out of it.

I realized that I waste my time by working 2 jobs or trying to work multiple jobs, when I could have been paid overtime at just 1 job! Also I need to focus on getting a job that is year round with benefits.

I mean I know I knew these things before-but it kind of came to me as I looked at both of my paystubs that came in this week. It just felt like a waste.

ALSO this is the first week I don't have to creat social media posts and I realized how much of a relief that is. Whew.

My 2nd boss didn't understand when we had a phone conversation that I was trying to quit by the end of this month. I thought she did and then by the end of the conversation it was apparent that there was not understanding. Ugh.
So I went to my 1st boss and asked if I had any wiggle room and he said yes for this month but not June.
So this time I wrote my 2nd boss an email explaining that i had exactly 5-10 hours of wiggle room per week this month, but would not be available past June.

She didn't respond all day and finally at 8 something I get a couple of texts where she is trying to work it out. Ugh.

I'm sorry i don't want to be a workaholic this summer. (not really)

I had to go tough on her since she wasn't understanding. But really my sister tells me I am being far too gracious and said she is lucky to have me etc etc. I'll go w/ that.

I went
he didn't mention that incident at all.
I worked a total of one hour and 45 minutes, stuffed my face with popcorn and saw some of the beginning of the movie.

Not bad, It beats digging ditches, as lots of old white men in my life used to say.

It was worth it. Got paid $50 for my time. That was nice.

I am having bad attitude right now.
My schedule keeps changing recnently due to one of the boats having a mechanical issue-and parts not being readily available. So I got told I would be on the short shift in the office tomorrow. I know that the other boat does not have a galley person. Everyone keeps asking who is in the galley on that boat tomorrow.
Usuallly we get a full schedule where we can see everyone's shifts and all of the coverage. This week I just got a verbal schedule. So I don't know.

I am dreading going in tomorrow-prepared to work in the office for 2 hours and then get told to get on the boat.
I could either:
A. Be proactive and just ask-so I know
B. Be ready in case I do get asked-which is what I would normally do because that is how I roll
OR
C. I could totally be like, "I can't work in the galley today, look at my outfit, I have no lunch, its supposed to rain, I don't have the proper shoes.

I feel like making them suffer because I'm tired of being there ALL THE TIME! (except last week when I was sick of course-which is hugely abnormal for me)
