[...] on the other weeks, I’ll be working 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. Even though I’m not missing the night shift, I’m welcoming the change of pace. For a while now, I’ve felt like my life has fallen [...]

I work at a hotel; I work at the desk doing paperwork and things like that. Answering phone calls & checking people in and out. Not an exciting job, but it’s easy.

The bad part about the first shift girl(s) being late: one is the general manager. =/ And I’m not talking five minutes; sometimes, it’s an hour or more. Professional, eh? Haha!

I totally, TOTALLY understand how you feel. I didn’t go to class today because I felt it was more important to attend to my mental health than it was to go take chemistry notes. (Wednesday IS my shortest day but I really can’t afford to skip days at all when I am barely understanding freaking nuclear fission and crap.) I wonder if it is just the weather taking its toll on us, you know? I think third shift is tough enough on our bodies, you know?

Anyway.

Hey, I may have asked this but what is YOUR third shift job? Oh, and I totally know what you mean about the first shift people being on time. Typically, at the hospital, they are on time but they have to get coffee, chit chat, blah blah, before they are ready to get report from me.

I’ve felt like this before, and it’s sad. It’s… helpless, sort of. It’s really sad and I wish I had words of wisdom. I don’t though. Just know that where you are now, someday (sooner than you think) you will be able to look back on and be glad you aren’t there anymore.
