Merry Fucking Christmas

[dragonjournal]

So, Xmas is shit. Not only did I get nothing for Christmas, not even a goddamned thank you, but the ham for Christmas dinner? Went bad. It didn't smell right, and I'm not running the risk of my kids getting food poisoning. So, now, the ham I'd been looking forward to for days? Is in the garbage. Twenty fucking dollars down the drain.

I worked seven days straight, because B, the other tech had a "family emergency" at Christmas. This is the third family emergency (around a holiday) that she's had. So, I worked seven days straight to cover shifts for her.

And just, today's my only day off. I got nothing. (And I know it's not about getting things but something would have been nice. Even a card!) I work tomorrow and Wednesday and maybe Thursday, Friday and Saturday again.

If R, my boss asks me to work Sunday again, I can't.

None of this is fair. Life isn't fair, but fuck me up the ass. This is ridiculous. And I just want a hug. I'm crying.

Update 12.39am: Can't sleep; brain will eat me.

Oh, Cat, I'm so sorry. *hugs* That is so hard and completely unfair.

I'm sorry, hon. I wish I could afford to send you something or help out but I'm so far in the red I'm getting charged a tenner every time I make a transaction.

I'm really sorry. The work thing sucks. I hate it when other people take advantage like that, and supervisors/managers let them.
