EXCUSE ME? MA’AM!

Thank you. 💛

(lol at the way you didn’t let slip you were doing this when I messaged you about it being with a pinch hitter!)

Apparently, even though I worked all first quarter and stressed myself out to hit our bonus metrics I’m not eligible to receive said bonus because I won’t be employed here when the bonus is paid out.

How fucking crazy is that? My Area Director said “you could stay two more weeks.”

Fuck all that.

Less than 3 weeks until my last day at my job. The Crux Deluxe album cover feels appropriate.

Here’s to taking chances and trusting myself.

I did it. I did it. I did it.

I sent in my one month resignation to my job last night.

I’ve been with the company for 11 1/2 years. Worked my way through server, bartending, staff expo, and then as a manager.

I’m simply exhausted and need to pivot to something I genuinely care about.

Interesting how society has always associated cooking with women and yet, 94% of Michelin star restaurants have run by male chefs. I guess what it's really "a woman's job" is the unpaid part of it.

Excuse me??! (Affectionate)

St. Patrick’s Day chapter is now live for my #Steddie Holidate fic.

I’m still churning ideas in my head for this fic so stick around!

This is such a good idea!! I never know what to do with all my stickers.

What if...

Also, fuck my job. Lol! Every answer I gave her was “yes, because of work” or “when something happens at work.” It’s just discouraging.

I’m working on my resume and my resignation letter is in the drafts of my company email.

🙃

I finally got an appointment with my psychiatrist. Taking myself off my anti-depressant was ✨not✨ my best idea. Bless her for being kind and putting me back on them right away. 😭

Steve before meeting Eddie: Guys it’s really bad out there

Robin: you mean ww3 coming??

Steve: no I mean tinder

steddie fics are at their peak when wayne immediately embarrasses eddie by dropping a hint for how long eddie has had a crush on steve

Chapter 3 - Valentine’s Day of my Steddie Holidate fic is live!

Slowly but surely getting this story together. Thank you @sammiches.bsky.social for being patient with the slow updates. I hope you enjoy!

A comic drawn digitally with two panels. First panel has one black cat on the left asking a white cat on the right "so what do you do for a living?" Second panel the white cat answered with a silly face "My best?"

Not me referring to Heated Rivalry in therapy today…

Still one of my absolute favorite pieces of fanart.

I legit wrote a chapter of my current fic where Eddie says he looks so much like his mother he thinks it makes Wayne sad sometimes. His uncle and his mom were best friends all through school.

…I’m—

I digress. I don’t even remember where I started. I just know I can’t do in this job much longer without losing my flinging flanging mind. Lack of empathy, especially on topics like mental health. ie: my depression is back and I’m without my medication atm. But, yeah, I gotta “just push through.”

Dubai next to one that was hit. He came to me in tears to apologize for being a little off during his shift. I was the only manager he felt safe to tell that to. On top of it all I’m the only female manager so I’m facing misogyny in real time, every day, with fellow managers minimizing my concerns.

Changes keeping women, people of color, the lgbtq+ community, etc. from voting.” They stared blankly at me. I said, “So yeah, the fear is real, business is slow.”

It’s exhausting being the one who watches the news and empathizes with staff. One of my servers? His sister was in a building in (+)

Absolute unknown future. There’s ICE in our communities, people are being shot in broad daylight with no repercussions. Global warming is about to be irreversible. The fuckers in the Epstein files have yet to be arrested. On top of that there’s a huge possibly of voter restrictions and law (+)

The last two days the managers couldn’t figure out why we were so slow! Last year we had hella sales. I looked them square in the face and said “The POTUS started a war, over night, no warning. He sent missiles over seas. Of course people aren’t eating out. They are saving their money for the (+)

Is it all really worth the stress and unhappy staff in order to collect the shit bonus every quarter? Mine was $900 this last quarter. That’s $300 a month post ridiculous tax. To save Uncle Dave doe money? Fuck that. I’d give it up to support my staff, let them make their money. I don’t need it. (+)
