What's Bothering You?

My boss is probably angry at me, for something I couldn't control. Also yay, love the fact they contact me when I am off. They always do this, but my mum said I should stop replying to them while off work unless I need to speak to them about hours or something.

Also, sandwich was bad, and she thought it was because I wasn't checking them?
If a customer doesn;t want a specific sandwich, its left there. I do check them, and she thinks it cant happen over night. But I told her it has with other sandiwches, as well as tarts. Now she wants me taking pics of ALL sandiwches morning and before clsoing; insane.

We shall see if my phone will let me, because half the time, it wont let me due to no storage, and I can't remove the images I have on there yet.
 
My throat hurts like hell (even after lemsip mixed with lemon juice and honey) and I'm feeling like a nuisance because I told my boss I'm not comfortable completing the task I've been asked to do this morning without training. He said he'll come tomorrow (he's based at a different site) and teach me how, but anxious brain says I've annoyed him.

I texted my partner about it and she said I was right to speak up if I felt I needed to be trained / supervised in carrying out a procedure I'm unfamiliar with, especially as it involves working with a dangerous gas and can cause harm to myself and others if done incorrectly, but part of me still feels stupid.

I know this is easier for me to say than it is for you to feel, but don't feel stupid - it is a totally reasonable request on your part to seek training, if you feel you aren't comfortable complete the task with the knowledge you have of it as of now. Hopefully as you start to feel better physically, you'll feel more confident that asking for training was the right move.

Update today:

Remember how she wants people to send pic of all the sandwiches in the morning?
Well her sister opened today and I came around noon to take over; after she left I checked the sandwiches, and one was bad :/ also three tarts and a bread
I took pics and showed my boss. She 'thanked' me like a child, like literally 'well done for checking 😘' with the whole emoji and everything.
I then said to her, questioningly 'I thought people were checing in the morning?'
Her reply: Guess the same way you didn't

This 75 year old at my job physically cannot do his job and it’s causing me to be buried everyday I work after him. He doesn’t even need the money and he just does it to get away from his wife. They don’t want to fire him to avoid lawsuits but I hate coming in on Monday and Friday being being buried because someone can’t walk around without a garbage can as a walker.

Complaining about this makes me feel insensitive but I can’t keep this in. I keep talking **** on him in my head, like he’s ****ing terrible.

I mentioned something similar here. I can relate.
 
I wanted to buy an iPod so that I don’t have to listen to my music on my phone but they’re much more expensive than I thought they would be. I already got myself excited at the idea but all of the technical differences between them kind of stresses me out!
 
In 6 days I go on vacation for 3 weeks. Therefore, I am giving this company exactly 3 weeks and 6 days to get this staffing situation fixed (spoiler alert: they won't). If I get back from my vacation and still see schedules like the ones we have now (and have had for a few months straight at this point), I will simply walk right out and never come back.
 
literally tossed and turned all night, couldn't relax, don't even know how I was able to sleep when I did. I woke up about 40 min ago and now I can't go back to sleep, and I probably shouldn't since I'm thinking I have a long day ahead of me, but ugh. I don't feel well, and I've been fighting my own mind for the last few days. I'm exhausted.
 
sometimes i think about how i'll have to work for another 30+ years and i get an overwhelming and unhealthy sense of complete dread, im not even unhappy in my job but this is my life now.. forever? i just dont want to think about the future anymore, idk how anyone has a good work/life balance and im genuinely scared
 
Had to get blood tests done today and they did a terrible job! They stuck me in three different places by two different doctors and then were like "Welp, can't do it. Go have the hospital try :/" they did just fine at the hospital of course but still. I feel like a pincushion😞

You know this cute sort of y2k angle where it’s tilted down your face? I can’t do that. I look like ****ing megamind. Even if I got bangs (which I don’t really want, I just want my 7head to shrink), I’d want to get a rhinoplasty.
