Calmness after the storm

The clusterfuck I once called work is now over. Exactly one week ago, they decided that I wasn’t good enough (read: compliant to their wishes) to be with that company, so I needed to be let go. I can’t say that I’m entirely upset about the situation. I’m far too overqualified to be a career bank teller, anyway.

Perhaps this will be the beginning of doing something that actually MEANS something. Something that could be construed as actually being important. Or at least, something that will pay the bills as well as keeping me entertained for 8 hours a day.

I do have to say that I’m quite pleased with the amount of positive feedback I’ve been receiving from other places of employment. I’ve already had two interviews, and a bunch more phone calls.

Trust me. I won’t be lazing about on my ass for very long.

Unclustering the Odds

I’m starting to feel a tad jaded.  Work is stressful because we’re understaffed and overworked.  The phone keeps ringing, but no one can answer it because we’re all busy helping other customers.  Yeah, I’m jaded.

But what more can I do?  What is it that will help me maintain the shred of sanity I probably don’t have anymore?  Not much.  Writing perhaps?  Sometimes, but writing scares me.

Nope.  Right now, I’m stuck.  I’m waiting patiently to hear word as to whether or not my Clusterfuck situation will change.  And I’m crossing my fingers for more money, different hours and no longer needing to work two jobs just to get some extra cash.  Job consolidation.  That’s all I need. 

I really haven’t had much time to myself because of the shit going on.  And it’s not like it’s important or all that stressful.  It’s more of a gradual, keeps getting worse with each passing day kind of thing.  Basically, everyday it feels as though I’ve never left the day before.  Even when I work the short days.  I’m still tired, and it’s still the same shit day after day.

Yeah, I’m definitely praying to whatever Gods may exist out there, and I’m working so hard to think POSITIVELY.  Something good must come from this.  They always say “It’s always darkest before Dawn.”  I hope it’s true.
