An update. I was diagnosed with diabetes the other day after spending all of Friday and most of yesterday in the hospital. I have a calcium problem too, I had bloods taken Thursday evening and then got a call at midnight telling me to get to A&E. They hooked me up to an IV then further bloods...
No mate, only my folks and they are not people who would notice none obvious things tbh.
I'm considering whether to sign off for a week with stress. It doesn't help I have two roles at work, and often one manager tries to interfere and stop me doing the others. She's someone I really don't like...
I'm in a strange headspace, I'm not sure if it's quite a depression or just a bit of restlessness. Either way I don't like it and feel the need to express it somebody.
I'm finding my life very unsatisfying. I don't get out as much as I'd quite like, I don't feel like I meet enough people, and I...
Not good.
Sleeping pattern is wrecked, my waking hours feel unproductive, feel let down by a people around me. Really don't the see point in persevering much longer, not like I'd be leaving a lot behind anyway. Life just feels crap and I don't want anymore of this.
It's been a rough few days.
Started in a new role but so far I haven't liked it. Mostly just down to me not getting much training these first few days. Basically have been left to sit around and scratch my bum for 90% of time because I haven't been trained to do anything yet and managers/team...
Not feeling particulary good.
I've been in a job for almost 2 months and it was going well. Was getting the full hang of everything (lots of different daily tasks), was making a few friendly acquaintances, was impressing my superiors.
Wednesday morning we all got pulled into the office and...
Will offer a bit more detail.
It's 48 hours a week, contracted. Four 12 hour days. For 26k per annum It works out as barely above minimum wage even though the job is basically that of a manager. I've seen the exact same role advertised by competitors companies and they all advertise it at £30k...
Been given my new proposal in writing.
They've changed the goalposts, they want me to be contracted to 48 hours per week, 9-9s on 4 days.
That'll be a no. If it were going to be 40-42 I was probably going to give it a go and see as people are suggesting. Contracted to 48 though? That's...
In an ideal world I'd be reasonably happy with this scenario but it just doesn't seem like it's in the cards. The two who are going have black marks against their names (don't know the details but minds seem to be firmly made up). I just have to look out for myself with this one.
Update, got a call back from the place I interviewed to offer me the job but they want me to just turn and start tomorrow, despite me explaining my notice period.
Turned them down, it's an ego boost to be wanted but it has to feel like the right thing. This certainly didn't and my mind was...
Feeling not too bad but could do with getting some anxious feelings out!
My employer is making budget cuts so a couple of employees are being laid off. Fortunately I've been told I'm not one of them, however they are going to present me with a new contract because they're looking to change my...
Just watched an interview with a famous person who said a line that has stuck with me. Was asked a question about his supposed "difficult" reputation and being criticised by certain people he's crossed paths with.
"Look, I am who I am. And I like who I am. I just don't care (about his...
Jason David Frank has tragically took his own life.
Was famous for playing Tommy Oliver in the Power Rangers (the green and later white ranger). Was only 49, had 4 kids and was active on the convention circuit, had everything to live for from the outside looking in. A massive figure in my...
Much better thanks mate. Just all got on top of me last week but the weekend was enjoyable and I feel mostly back to normal.
Thank you very much everyobody. ;)
It's only right people who post in here know that they need to be cautious should they choose to ever interact with you, you've proven that you don't respect people's privacy and will use their personal problems as something attack them with when it suits, and I can show evidence of that to...
It's a bit rich you're even here, you put my private business out in other threads, things I'd DMed you about several years ago, in order to have a pop at me along with some others. Shame on you.
Not in a good place, actually had thoughts about jumping off a bridge a bit earlier. Not serious ones, but the idea and mental images shouldn't ever be entering my mind surely.
Just feels like nothing is going the way I'd like it too, that I'm X years old and have hardly anything to show for...
100% agree guys, thanks. Hope neither of you or anyone else has ever had something similar happen.
None of what the poster put in the public thread particularly bothered me, it was stuff that's not relevant to anymore and I haven't thought about in ages. I'm just very disappointed they would do...
How is everyone by the way? I haven't posted much in thread the last year or two, but that's because I honestly haven't felt the need too. Things have been pretty stable and that's all you can ask for, the odd wobble here and there but I've managed to get back on track fairly quickly.
I hope...
