Something’s not right

Need to vent

Need to vent

Hi everyone

I need to vent!!

I'm not coping

I'm not enjoying my new job. It's mundane, boring and triggering. For those who don't know, I was made redundant in my pharmacy job 4 days before Christmas. I then found a casual job at a supermarket. The job I do is very boring. I have far too much 'alone' time at work so my mind wanders to a lot of stuff. I asked my supervisor if i could learn the registers as thats what i would love to do. she replied that she couldn't until next year, don't know why as we are so short staffed and they need extras.

They advertise extra shifts or replacing a shift on facebook, which i really hate. but that's how they do it. i asked my supervisor if i could pick up extra shifts even though i don't know the registers. she replied yes thats fine that i would still do cleaning.

The other day a staff member posted she needed someone to do a shift. i was the first one tyo reply and accept the shift. another girl replied after me. the staff member replied back to me saying she would give that shift to the second girl as i don't know tyhe registers. I was so annoyed, angry and then upset. I feel used, and discriminated.

The problem is I am 'too scared' to confront my supervisor and ask again as i don't want the other member to get into gtrouble. so this means that i can't get any extra shifts until i learn the registers.

it is so wrong

the other issue i am having is seeing the old pharmacy customers. it's not an issue in that i see them, they love to talk. some still didn't know i had gone!!! but each time i see them and they say 'oh i am sorry to what happened to you' i get upset, hurt angry at the new owners. i miss the girls i used to work with and the job.

working for a much much bigger organisation is hard. there is so much clicks, so much politics and crap. i try to go in and do my job and go home.

but with so much time on my hands at work i start to think negatively.

i have recentyly had terrible vertigo, a 5 day migraine and today again another headache. i decided to call in sick and was spoken to so rude and short by the supervisor. it's like she doesn't believe me when i call in sick. and my anxiety is extremely high in having to ring her.

i don't have the confidence to leave and get another job. i feel i am not good enough

i am sorry to vent, i know a lot of you are struggling with your own issues. and that i should be thankful that i do have a job, as a lot of people have lost theirs.

Re: Need to vent

It’s so sad for her @Shaz51

she’s only 5 but understands so much. She’s not silly. I think when she’s older she won’t go.

I’m so glad she’s close to us and loves coming over and staying the night. She gets so much attention, love and fun.

Re: Need to vent

That’s disgusting and so low @BlueBay . I don’t even know if that’s classified as abuse - emotional harm. My blood is boiling. How could he do that.

When first reading it, I’m thinking, ‘oh, maybe little A is wrong’… but for you to find it on marketplace, that’s appalling!

I don’t want to stir the nest, but if I were you, I’d take screenshots of everything in case you need it in the future as evidence for custody or whatever.

That breaks my heart @BlueBay - it’s so incredibly wrong to make money from your child’s toys.

It’s sick beyond measure.

Re: Need to vent

@BPDSurvivor , I was emotionally and mentally abused by my father before mum and I left him

In response to: Re: Need to vent

Re: Need to vent

I know @BPDSurvivor I’m furious

he hasn’t replied back to my D yet. As she told him she saw it in marketplace.
i bet he doesn’t have little A this Saturday

abd he better not get angry or tell little A off because that’s bad too.

And they’re expecting a baby in July.
i can’t believe.
yes I’m livid too.
yes emotional abuse

only gives my D $30 a month for child support. !!!!!
disgusting

hugs my sis @Shaz51 xxxx

Re: Need to vent

I’m so sorry to hear that @Shaz51 - and now, in the 21st century when we have procedures in place, it seems so wrong that this still exists.

Loving money is evil. Many can be hurt because of such greed.

Im sorry @BlueBay that you have to face this. It is so unfair. I hope you and your daughter look after yourselves as this time.

As much as I don’t want to say this, it makes me question Little A’s safety when she goes there.

Please keep talking to her.
