Email from boss today was so annoying that I need a day to process it before I respond. I'm going to read it again tomorrow, see if I am overreacting, and then formulate a calm, productive reply while swearing under my breath.

Today is going to my last day wrapping up these damn files even though it was technically a week ago. I will get everything do and move on gracefully. I'm trying to tell myself this.

Man. I really dread going to work on Mondays because I have a coworker who is the absolute worst person to work with. She constantly criticizes how I do things, makes rude comments to people's faces, including our boss. She is just...a horrible person to be around. I think she's a little bitter that I get to enjoy weekends because I don't have kids and she has a toddler and a new baby at home. Sorry, but I didn't choose that lifestyle for a reason so leave me alone about it.

I work for a massive hospital/health network. The beautiful, enormous cafeteria just had to shut down because all the staff quit. I just heard from a friend at my old job, a decent sized ENT practice, that they no longer have a medical records dept due to the last 2 employees walking out on Tuesday. This is why companies need to pay a living wage. These folks can currently make more money working at Chipotle. The panicked emails from management are hilarious, too. Freaking PAY people and they'll stay.

I literally hate some of my clients lying cheating greedy bastards. And this is on such a small scale, it's not even a blip on the radar. When I think about how bad they are, and the fact that they are the tiniest little minnow sized fish in a sea that has massive whales (like congress, Jeff Bezos, fucking *rump, etc) the whole thing just makes me so sick and angry and bitter and full of hate. I don't know how to deal with it.

I regret not quitting sooner and staying in 1-2 years of indecisiveness when I know work was declining my mental health. The same for a relationship I knew would not work out. It was all tolerable, but still stressful as heck. I wish I trusted my gut. Now that I've put in my notice I'm happier than ever and new ideas are coming quickly.

I'm so salty about the fact that our company doesn't give us a holiday on July 5th because "the actual holiday falls on the weekend". We also don't get a holiday for Christmas this year for the same reason. It's total bullshit and I think at least 70% of the company has complained to our HR/upper management about it and maybe they'll change it next year, but it's doubtful. It's the dumbest thing ever because I have to burn a day of PTO to be able to enjoy the day with my family.

This influx of new clients can level the fuck off anytime. That'd be grrreeaaaaat. Cool that we're in high demand and all, but Jesus H Christ on a tripod, people.

At work we're encouraged to get customers to sign up for credit cards, and the compensation is pretty good = $50 per approved application. There are some who literally make $1000+ extra a month! Many of us wondered how in the heck they're doing this, because we have a very boring script that you have to say VERBATIM, and if it's found out that you don't, you will lose your ability to participate in the program. WELL I just worked with a guy who makes tons of $ with the program. I see why. He goes WAY off script & outright lies about the benefits, even telling customers if they fill it out right there and give it back to him, they get extra bonus points - not true! AND he tells them to use the benefits (which are pretty major) ASAP and then cancel the card before one year so they don't have to pay the annual fee! I'm reporting him. Most struggle to get ONE app per month and here he's getting 30+ by lying and screwing the company.

So I got chewed out by my boss for sending an email I probably shouldn't have. It pissed me off because a person in the company asked me to send them a file I had worked on before my team joined me. My boss got pissed that I didn't give them any credit for it. She wants us to abso-fucking-lutely everything as a damn team and I HATE it. I like working alone way more.
