    Super tight production schedules and I don't have the programs and fixtures ready. Getting all stressy.

    I somehow managed to lose my matchstick carrots on the walk from the grocery store home.

    I just wanted to make pickled carrots for salads, gosh darnit.
     
  3. Lambda

    Lambda everything happens so much

    I just realized that I forgot to do a section of a task that I thought I was finished with, though I don't even know if it's actually something I need to do or not. I was so proud of myself for getting to cross it off the list, but I had to go erase it again

    this is why vague to-do lists are bad. if something isn't written out specifically, it's probably going to fall out of my head, and then people are going to yell at me for it

    Nghhh I'm doing a stream thing for Summer Camp Fun but the site that has the animes on it has subs with bad translations. Spelling characters' names wrong when there's a perfectly good wiki... Plus they added weird edits to the theme song but didn't bother to translate any of the lyrics!

    Ughhh, that sucks. This is my fear for when I move. I have The Real Thing right now and it works very, very well, with manageable side effects. I'd rather not toy around with that.

    Corporate management~

    So we're understaffed at my job. In order to get hired at [Package Handling Company], you have to go through a multiple step process.
    1. First step is, sign up for one of the appointments to go in for a tour of the facility.
    2. Second step, assuming that the person giving the tour doesn't think you're an axe murderer, is to sign up for their website (done there, at least when I went).
    3. Third step is receive the info to take the online quiz that filters out people that Mysterious Corporate Algorithms have determined are unlikely to be good employees or stick around.
    4. Fourth step is to pass the fucking quiz. I didn't have a problem, but unfortunately in the time since I've started working, at least three or four people have failed it??? My manager is baffled, in the however many years before that he'd had like 2 ever.
    5. Fifth step is to pass the background check!
    6. Sixth step is go to work your first day and not quit at the end of it. This is apparently an actual problem. Despite the tour, plenty of people don't how physically tiring moving boxes for several hours can be. Or they assume they can handle it. Whatever the reason, Day 1 retention is pretty poor.
    7. After that, if you come back on Day 2, your coworkers assume you're actually gonna stick around, and start properly introducing themselves.
    We're losing a couple of people in a couple of weeks, one due to transferring across the country, the other I forget why. And so far we've got about 4 people somewhere in the process between 4 and 6.... but how many will actually go through with it? Who knows!!!

    The reason why this is annoying me is that today, since two people were out on necessary vacation things, we were so understaffed that we had to rearrange things to be feasible with how short-handed we are. And I've been nauseous and probably PMSing for the last few days. It's been a Super Fun Time.

    At least it's the fucking weekend. And I can take a break from being surprised by work changes.

    There's a couple that are apparently all like this. I didn't specify which one it is since this is one of the google bot searchable forums and I'm easy to dox.

    Apparently I put the portable charger in my suitcase instead of my purse. The suitcase that is now somewhere near the bottom of the luggage mountain.

    4-5 hours of cartrip left.

    Sure enough, today I notice it peeling off the nail bed. With a massive bruise blooming under the section still attached. :|
