Whining ahead. Yuck.

piploverThe past few days have been pretty miserable. I haven't felt good, and work has been especially trying. I was so sick yesterday I had to leave a few hours early. It didn't help that one of the customers was an absolute monster. Told me to go kill myself when I wouldn't magically fix his problem. Yeah, I hung up on him.
I just had a meeting with my boss, who had some "very serious concerns" about my desire to stay with the company.
Mostly because my main supervisor told her I haven't been using the tools he's given me, which is complete and utter BS. I may want to leave this hell hole sooner rather than later, but that doesn't mean I want to lose it before I have another job. I have to have the financial security. If I can get unemployment, then yay! Go ahead and let me go. But I do rather like being able to get groceries and pay the bills. So I'm doing what I can to bring my numbers down.
I guess what it comes down to is keeping my head down, my mouth shut, and doing the best I can until they get rid of me or I can find something else.
The other job I interviewed for was a bust. Still, I'm working with my case worker at Worksource, and just keeping my fingers crossed. It also helps that the VA is working with me too, in the rehabilitation program. Basically they offer an incentive for employers to hire me because they pay for the majority of the training.
I'm just so tired of this. I'm physically and emotionally tired, and my health has been going down the last few months. The pain in my stomach has come back, and my back and knee have been bothering me more. I have to drag myself out of bed, even when I've had 8 or 9 hours of sleep. I really need to get out of this place.

I really hope that something better comes along for you very, very soon. *hugs*
