its funny. mister cat and i were having a conversation last night and he said "what the fuck kytn; what is with your funny little teenage rebellion? youve always been like this; whenever something happens and youre not impressed; you rebel like your 16 again, its hilarious." and its so ridiculously true. i hate being told what to do, or feeling as though im owned by anyone of authority.
this is the case at work. ive been rostered on for 50 hour, 6 day weeks for the next three at work; and am feeling the bite already. i took on this new position as my hours were supposed to be less than my previous position and benefits greater; but that hasnt been the case at all. 15 hours a week has turned into 50, 3 days a week has turned into 6; and the pressure i have has tenfolded.
im never at home, i never see my husband or daughter; i see my girlfriends rarely and my inner virgo is screaming at me due to the lack of organisation in my home life. i REALLY want this shit to settle down soon. i love my job, but when i came in this morning at 7am to find my boss had put a porta-bed in my office and started coming down on me about petty issues that were easily sorted; i nearly lost my fucking mind.
the company i work for expects that you live and breathe your job; even when youre not in it and as much of a team player as i am; when my time is mine; and not theirs; its simply that. i have a life outside of work and appreciate that balance.
ill work it out soon; right now i feel smothered and need a good two days off to breathe.
