Wake Up!

Even though I haven’t slept in 16 hours, today’s goal is: Don’t fall asleep!! Well at least not until it’s dark out. You see my sleep pattern is completely backwards. I’m up at the crack of dawn and then sleep in the middle of the day. Please don’t judge me; just read my previous posts …

OUT WITH THE BULLSH*T, IN WITH THE NEW

Is this my cliche low point in life? (I'm not counting my childhood because that I had no control over). God I hope so! This I can handle. This I can overcome. I've experienced worst at a younger age. Maybe even had worst jobs - there's nothing more disgusting than emptying trays of partially eaten …

Thank You!

Before I start my post I just want to say Thank You for the love ❤️ Thank you for reading my story ❤️ I have so much to share! My brain is constantly going with future story ideas for this blog. Thank you❤️ Ok, I need to back track a little. I keep remembering details that at …

Surprise! Surprise!

Every day I ask myself, "What's today?" I look at my phone and think to myself, ok it's Saturday. But my days don't mean anything anymore. To clarify, Monday-Friday was work; Saturday & Sunday was the weekend. But now, everyday may as well be the weekend. No more fighting with the alarm clock, getting dressed …

Ready, Set, Reply!

It's now 7:30 am and since I never fell as sleep last night - as usual-  I figured I'd write. It's officially fall! I turned my heat on for the first time. And as I sit on my bed, I can't stop thinking about my old job.. I think the moment my supervisor went from …

In Retrospect…

(Email sent! I chose the truth, which was always the plan. I condensed it down to 2 and 1/2 paragraphs. It was straight forward and to the point. Honestly, I'll be surprised if they approve it but you never know!) Power can be exploited if let in the hands of the wrong person. I often …

Just Some Random Thoughts

I meant to write this yesterday, but stronger thoughts prevailed. I'm obviously new to this blogging thing; kind of late to the party lol. The last time I wrote on a regular basis was college and that's only because it was required. So it's been even longer since I wrote for my own enjoyment. I'm …

Voicemail…

I don't have a lot of regrets in life, but accepting the adjuster position with the state is definitely one of them. Working there was completely different than what I was used to. There was no real structure or organization to my role. In fact, a lot of what I did I kinda made up …

I’m on the Fences

How should I start my email? It was retaliation! Discrimination! Harassment! All of the above? Ugh! The anger has subsided, hunger pains gone, and headache diminished - for now. The past 2 days have not been my best. I keep replaying my thoughts over & over again in my head. And the more I think …

HARASSMENT….IS THAT TOO STRONG OF A WORD?

I'm not hear to preach, however workplace harassment is a real thing. Terrible bosses exist and the effects of their "reign" is often devastating. My previous employer (State of Georgia- DOAS) was not my first bad experience but was definitely my worst! And trust me, the competition was tough. I want to start from the …

HERE WE GO… THERE’S NO TURNING BACK NOW

My thoughts are completely jumbled up now. But I need to gain some order, some sense of flow, and make a hopefully compelling response to DOL. I've been binge-watching Jane the Virgin on Netflix  so that's probably were this out of the blue desire to write came from. As I write this, my eyes remain sore - …

AHH! My Silence ends now…

My very first blog! (Well technically, my second. I created my first one in college as a part of a requirement). Ok here we go... Although I'm sure no one will probably read this lol, (do people still read blogs anymore??) I'm making a rash decision to air out my frustrations in life! I need …

I FELL ASLEEP AND NOW I CAN’T WRITE

(This post was saved in my drafts and was never published.... Update- Since my last post, I had the hearing with DOL and unfortunately my unemployment was denied. However, I found a new job. I'm back to working with sane people lol).  I know it's been a minute, but I have good news! I got …
