I never quit a job without notice but I was fired once. I took a job in an office and did not like the person I was working with. Something bothered me about her husband who I believe she had broken up a marriage to get him. I was 19 and very religious at the time so to me she was a bad person. We clashed on everything and my work was not good because I could not really concentrate and I stopped caring. I was still shocked when I got fired.

Getting fired turned out to be the best thing that happened to me. Once you go through that you learn that you can survive it. Within a week I had a job where I loved the work and all the other people in the company. I stayed there until I job married and decided to go to beauty school and become a hair stylist.

Twenty years later I went back to doing office work but before that I went to college and got a degree in computer programming. I never go fired again but that was partly good luck. Once I was part of a group of over 900 employees doing work to prepare for year 2000. That team was no longer needed and most were let go. Only 20 of us kept out jobs.

Jennifer, the reason they are doing that to you is because they know you are the person who will step up to the plate and do your best. It may not be perfect, but it will be better than anyone else will do. They know you are dedicated and reliable. See if your management will consider also hiring someone temporary to help with the increased work. Sometimes I trained a temp worker and then ended up hiring them as permanent employees because they were good workers and fit will in the company.

Hang in there and do your best. Thing will work out.

I want that throw Mel. I would hang it in my office area and just give everyone the stink eye when they walk by.

Good morning gang. Boy I just can't catch a break at work. Here I thought things would be quiet for a while only to find out they dropped the ball on who was going to cover the scale house while our scale attendant is out on medical leave. I get told when I walk in that I'm going to have to help out and cover a lot of the 8 weeks she's out. I'm going to be honest I don't have time for this bull**** I keep getting pulled to do this or do that and then get **** from corporate when stuff isn't done on time. Well guess what I can't be in 5 different places at once, doing 5 different things. And they wonder why I get pissy and snappy at some of them. You will only push me so far and then it is FAFO what I am capable of. They say patience is a virtue no it isn't that's a lie.

Anyway I've been harvesting strawberries every night from my strawberry patch, and they are the sweetest ones I've ever had. It's supposed to be a rainy day, so I won't be doing much when I get home.

QOTD: Would you just leave a job without giving a notice? While I have always given at least a 2 weeks' notice or even more. Today I just wanted to get back in my car and go home. One thing I hate is not being told something ahead of time regardless if it is something at work or at home it drives me crazy and puts me in a sour mood for the day.

B: coffee and 2 scrambled eggs with a slice of deli ham

L: tossed salad and cottage cheese

D: hot dogs and beans

30 minutes on the treadmill

Have a great day everyone!!!!

My parents are long gone and I have eleven brothers and sisters. I see the world through rose colored glasses so they are all perfect to me and I love them all even if sometimes I don't particularly agree with what they do. There are little spats that happen but we still stay close and the kids are all like brothers and sisters even when they live thousands of miles apart.

When you get older you see people's good qualities and overlook their faults. People are different but mostly are good and it is OK if their lives are not lived the same as mine. I treasure my family and friends and it would take a lot for me to write a person off.
