Rough Week

December 2, 2022

This week, bro.

This week's been ROUGH. Work's been crazy, my mates are out of town, did I mention work's been crazy, and I'm suuuper broke.

So yeah, mates are out of town, which sucks. Like I'm super happy they're out having fun with people they love, and I miss them a whole hell of a lot. It just generally, uncomplicated-ly sucks, but it'll be better once they're back. I just miss them.

So that's fun.

Then...fuckin' work. Like. I've been past fed up with working here for weeks-to-months, and it is noooot getting better. It's just horribly mis-managed, and it's going to shit, and everyone knows it's going to shit. From the rat problem in the kennels, to the fact that we literally have Only One Guy responsible for taking care of up to 30 dogs 7 days a week and they can't be FUCKED to hire help, to the bare-bones staff we have up front leading to us being in constant scramble whenever it's not dead as shit. Yeah, also the doctors who bought the practice two years ago totally pissed off all the locals, and yeah, lots of the locals are shitheads and racists, but you BOUGHT a practice in a rural community, you didn't have to do that! But instead of figuring out how to smooth the ruffled feathers worth smoothing, the boss mostly just complains about how it's not fair and how they're racist anyway, and about how actually we're super good anyway! All while making comments about how if the hospital has to close, he'll be okay, anyway. Fuck you, man!

So this week started with another of his horrible meetings (I refuse to forget or forgive the times he's told us we don't care...no offense). He told us he wants us to do 10 doctor's appointments and 6-8 tech appointments per day. As if we didn't hardcore struggle--especially him--with the 8 doctor's appointments and 2 tech appointments Wednesday. Hell, as if the 5 doctor's appointments Tuesday weren't a struggle, ESPECIALLY because of him. Dude micro-manages like crazy and can't keep an eye on the important things. Like not being 30 minutes late to your own appointment because you decided a neuter would take you "two minutes". Fucking shit.
