UGH

Ever felt like life is just layering more and more crap on you and feels like it will never let up? I sure do. Here's why:
  1. After not having worked Tuesday and Thursday nights at Gymboree for the past couple of months, I told Jason's to schedule me since I appreciate having money for gas and such. Only with my luck would I be informed that I was working tomorrow night at Gymboree- when I'm supposed to be training someone at Jason's. Gets better...
  2. I'm personally sick of Gymboree because after making it clear as ice to my store manager that I'd love to be an assistant manager or sales leader several times, I found out the chick who got hired at the same time as me last year got promoted to position I expressed a desire for... Only I found this out when we were putting new line out and she opened the cash drawer... only mangers/sales leaders can do that. Management never even asked if I'd like the position; in fact, I doubt they even considered me.
  3. I feel like the assistant manager (who has the store manager and district manager wrapped around her fingers) is setting up her own team/pulling strings/playing favorites with the entire store. It's obvious the other girl was promoted for more than just her productiveness...
  4. I love how the store manager told me she wished she could use me more, but since I got a second job she can't. Dear Mrs. DG: I got a second job because I wasn't getting hours to begin with. It wasn't my "F*%* you" to the company.
  5. Upon all this b.s. is my work schedule at Jason's for the past two weeks.
  6. Not to mention my 3 tests this week that I haven't even GLANCED over.
  7. oh, and my attention level's at a big fat 0.
Add all this to one girl's life and she feels like the dumps.

Oh Elle, I'm sorry your week/weeks have been sucking so badly. That completely sucks about your job at Gymboree and someone manipulative got a position that you deserved--maybe it is time to leave that job? I mean if they don't appreciate you then they don't deserve your hard work!

I hope you are able to get studying done soon. I know how that feels when you have exams on your calendar and you just don't have it in you to study...sucks.

I hope you do great on your tests and are able to get your job conflict(s) worked out. :)

Ugh, I HATE weeks like this. It's like, everything that COULD go wrong goes wrong all at once! :(

Don't stress out too bad-- it won't last forever :(
