I Got Jughead on a Riverdale Personality Test

[jpegghost]

I have to read my prior post every time I come on here because I forget what I'm ever talking about.

This week was not too eventful, the mentor was off a few times from cancellations so I didn't show up as I'm her little assistant. I practiced on my machine and have done the usual stuff. It's really not too interesting, but a guy did coke in the bathroom and that was weird!

My tolerance for weird and gross is absurdly high. Going from morgue to tattoos is a leap, but I'm so desensitized from death drama that dealing with a crackhead in the tattoo shop is just ... whatever. Hell we even have one working there (or so I'm told, I'm not that close to that artist).

Tomorrow is SUPPOSED to be my day off but I have to go in anyways to help with them as they tear down the pony walls. No one else in the shop volunteered, so I was volun-told to be there. So it's just gonna be me and my mentor, tearing down shit on my day off. I was very irritated for some reason and went out to the dumpster and kicked it, then went home and shattered some Mike's Hard Lemonades I found abandoned outside.
I realize I sound like a bratty child. In retrospect, I overreacted and it's not THAT big of a deal, but if I don't do stuff around the house then it's gonna fall to pieces. Alex does so much for work, I don't want him to be burdened with caring for our place too :/ I think I just take my responsibilities WAY too hard and panic when I fail them or can't attend to them.

I am still embarrassed about rage smashing some beer bottles but where else are you guys gonna hear about hormonal 20-somethings acting irrationally? Riverdale?

It's been a hard year and a LOT of people are on their last nerve, so don't feel alone in acting out frustrations.

Thank you u_u everyone's pent up it seems!

I have to read my previous post EVERYTIME! Then I do a defeated sigh when it is way longer than I thought

I'm sorry they're making you work on your day off. That's kind of shitty. I totally understand the frustration. Hopefully, the teardown won't take too long, and you'll have a little bit of your Sunday to do what needs to be done.

It wasn't that bad, it was about 4-5 hours of manual labor, but hey it was a nice chance to exercise instead of going to my usual gym!

Being mad that you've been told you're going to come in and work on your day off is a perfectly normal thing. And taking your frustration out on some abandoned beer bottles isn't a bad idea at all. I'm pretty sure there are places that people pay to go in and smash glasses and such to vent anger. So I wouldn't be too hard on yourself for that. And after this past year, I think we're all wound more tightly and things that might not have bothered us in the past feel absolutely overwhelming now.

I hope the teardown doesn't take too long and that you get a bit of downtime to do the other things you need to do.

Thank you Manda u___u I felt better immediately after, so it's nice to have a release somehow. The teardown was 4-5 hours and I was sweaty and tired but it was a sort of workout so... I guess that burned off some stress!

[alee_grrl]

Oof, that sounds like quite a workout! Hopefully you won't get voluntold to do something else on your day off again any time soon!

[jpegghost]

I was almost voluntold to come in today to help but they ended up getting everything done yesterday. I'm relieved. I was sick of handling sheet metal and using crow bars to tear shit apart.

[alee_grrl]

I would have been sick of that too! I'm glad that you weren't told to come in today to help again. *hugs*

Oh yeah, losing time that you thought you had to yourself? I would be pissed too.
