I got the job! It was pretty stressful at first, and I actually wound up changing my mind and declined their offer, because with my disabilities and the fact that it was my first real job, I was too stressed out to jump right into the hours they were asking. But then a couple hours later, the hiring manager called me and offered to accommodate. We worked out a schedule that satisfies us both, and I start on Monday Apparently I did better on the math test than anyone else they've hired

Second day of my job, and I'm having doubts.
*being interviewed for the job at Hobby Lobby*
"So, are you able to handle a job that's fast-paced, on your feet, lifting and grabbing things for a six to eight hour shift (including breaks)?"
Me, who hasn't done any muscle-building activity and it pretty much lethargic all the time: Sure...
I spent the last two hours and fifteen minutes taking full shopping carts of returns and carting all around the entire store looking for where they go.
I was allowed to ask for help from different employees, including the manager himself.
There were also labels on each one telling me which department each item was meant to go in.
I still got lost. Constantly.
The first cart was okay, but the second one was overstuffed with random items so tight I couldn't really get them out to focus on each one individually. A lot of coworkers came by and took stuff out because it matched their department. So I walked constantly. My feet pretty much died within the first hour, and not long afterwards, went numb with pain. I had to sneak into one of the abandoned sections and just stand on one foot at a time to ease the pain. Didn't help much, but made it slightly tolerable.
Tracking down coworkers for help isn't easy when you're wandering all over the place and they have specific tasks in specific areas to do. Not helpful when they keep pointing in vague directions for each item in the cart, and no, I can't remember all of that...
I finally finished about five minutes after my shift was supposed to be done. I did two carts. There were two more, but they're someone else's problem XD
My legs are so cramped that they're too stiff to stretch out. My feet feel better, until I stand up. Then they feel bruised over the entire bottoms, all the way down to the bone. Should've taken your allowed break, Doggy (I'm allowed one fifteen minute break. My 30 minute lunch break is mandatory).
So, hopefully I don't die tomorrow XD DX

So, Saturday I scrapped skin off of the knuckle of my left thumb opening a new bottle of shower gel. Unfortunate, but no big deal.
Monday I scrape skin off my left middle finger when I bump it into the wall trying to plug in my 3ds. Annoying.
Today I get a paper cut right next to the scrape on my thumb when trying to put some stuff in my locker at work. What the heck?
Then not much later, while cleaning glass, I cut another finger on my left hand, right by the cuticle. I don't know how, I just felt sudden pain and looked down and saw it start to bleed. I had two bandaids in my locker, instantly grabbed one out for the paper cut, end up going back for the other one for this cut.
Later on, the blade I was using to scrape residue off of glass digs into my left index finger. I wait a bit, no blood. It never broke skin, so despite the pain, it was nothing.
So what should I do about a cursed left hand?

QUOTE (Jediferret @ 2 December 2019 - 05:58 PM) | Hey guys! Sorry I've been gone for such a long time. Just been dealing with real life nonsense. I'm still around though. Kinda got into another community lately in an attempt to heal over the past six months or so. Been kind of a slow heal, unfortunately. I am getting better though.
@Dragondog - I'm all caught up on Miraculous Ladybug, just fyi.
Hope you guys are doing well! |
Hi! Netflix is really slow at releasing the episodes, but I've seen spoilers for Cat Blanc, so XD (I may have checked your twitter a couple of times, just to make sure you weren't dead XD)

@MacGyver85 - Awww... Thank you! I feel bad I haven't been around much, but I hadn't forgotten about you guys. Sometimes it just gets hard to like think of things to say for a post when you got so much going on, ya know? @Dragondog - Cat Blanc was actually really good. It wasn't what I was expecting at all. I actually shut down all my social media profiles to private except for Twitter. The reason Twitter is still open is because I've been trying to support Justin (aka Pudding), who is the reason I've been able to cope with things. I've been a fan of his for many years, but just recently started being active in his community. Since August, I think. But he has a good attitude, and I think he's pretty cool... and that is a stark contrast from what I'm used to. @MacGyverGod - I read all that. Wow, that sucks. I hope you'll find something soon! I'm currently trying to not lose my job while trying to figure out what I'm even doing right now. I dunno if I want to move or stay put. I just ... dunno. I think I just need more time to get my head straight. Blah...

*pops head in* Yoooooo!! lol Yes, I'm still alive. My laptop recently broke down, though nothing major. Just the power button broke. Had it replaced and got it back yesterday. Being without my laptop for this long was like missing a limb. XD I just noticed too that MacGyver is no longer streaming on Amazon Prime! D: Nooooo... I own Season 1 on Bluray, and season 6 & 7 digitally, but it feels weird not having access to the middle seasons. I NEED THEM!!!
