Having a whiny *****y crappy day...help!

robin52077

So, I slept like total crap last night, woke up every half hour. My back hurts, my hip hurts, my neck hurts, I'm TIRED.

I got to work this morning after my 2 days off (my weekend is Sunday/Monday, I run a Dunkin Donuts), and it just got worse.

A piece of equipment grew legs and walked away all by itself apparently, because nobody knows where the heck it went, also, we are all out of a couple of essentials and nobody bothered to call or email me, so I didn't know till I got here.
I was drinking a lot of water and had to pee really bad but I was there alone so had to wait till one of my girls came in at 9. She ended up oversleeping and showed up at 9:45, while my kidneys were in pain...

Several things were not done correctly on my days off, not stocked, left empty, etc.

The hot chocolate machine is apparently broken, and once again, nobody called or left a note....

My girls are usually great but they had to be slacking right when I was tired and already in a bad mood?!?!?

So now I am torn between going home and laying on the couch with a box of cookies....or going and buying a pack of cigarettes. Today is 3 days smoke free, and I am stressed so I WANT one, the last 2 days were fine.....

I feel a little better now, but I still really want a cigarette.

Working Fast Food can SUCK! - I pulled two years at a taco place in a mall food court :sick:

Sorry that your staff seem to be out of control - do they know that you quit smoking? - I am quiting on Saturday and have warned my whole office that I am probably going to be like a mythical hydra for the first few days :laugh:

Dont give in! You know that it is just the day and the nico monster rearing its ugly head! You can do it - even put up with "lazy" staffers... and chances are, in a couple of days, none of it will matter at all!

Hope your day gets better!

Try going home and making yourself exercise... even if its only for a little bit!!! I bet you won't want the cookies or the cigarette!!! Plus, exercise will help you take a nice, well-deserved nap!!!!

Have to agree that excercise would help put your day back on track, but If you're feeling sore then In your shoes I'd have and early night and start afresh tomorrow.
If you don't sleep early you'll be more likely to pig out or turn to cigarettes...you're safes on days like these if you go to bed early

That cigarette is not going to make the equipment return, restock your supplies or help anything else that is aggravating you!! You know what you have to do.

What ever you do, dont have the ciggarette. My wife went through the weight loss and quitting smoking and the best thing she ever did was to quit the smoking. From experience I know that you are going through a tough time trying to give up smoking and lose weight but it does get easier. It also gets easier on the people around you, I know.

You can always come here and vent your frustration and when you really need to let off steam go to the gym, go for a run but dont go for the bad stuff. YOU CAN DO IT!!!!!

Stay strong.

Thanks everyone!:flowerforyou:

Proud to say I did NOT stop and buy a pack of smokes.:drinker:

I came home and rearranged my living room to make my treadmill fit better (now I can use my laptop while walking, I am a genius! Those minutes will FLY by if I read this forum WHILE walking!)

Then I had a good lunch. I ate a Smart Ones meal, "Artisan Creations Chicken Marinara with Mozzarella Cheese". It was a flatbread sandwich. I don't know if it was just because I was really hungry but that was the BEST tasting "diet" meal I ever tasted!!!:laugh:

Thanks again for all your supportive words. The craving is pretty much passed, I do not have the desire to run to the corner store right now...
