    Weekend Warriors UNITE!

    I went home and watched a movie with my mother this morning so I didn't work out until the evening but I got it done!
    I also ate a half a pizza.... :mrgreen:

    Mmm pizza! My mom and I had breakfast with a friend of the family that we haven't seen since I was a little kid. She was living a pretty rough life then, but she's completely turned her life around and is doing amazing. We had a great time catching up!

    I feel tired still. I got about 9 hours-ish of sleep.
    I have to hit the gym in the morning and I know I feel like I don't wanna right now, but I know I will feel like I really accomplished something after.

    Nine hours! That's my sleep for the week!

    I did and I'm 8 hrs into my 12 today. I think I've spoken to more people in the past two days than I did all of last week at work.

    This is about what mine looks like, going from nights to days within a day. On the bright side, I got to hang out and have dinner with my hubs. It felt almost normal.

    It sure was quiet while I was gone...

    Following up from a previous rant about a stupid coworker who called out all weekend so I had to work days...she gave her two weeks notice. W.T.F.

    She's going to work at a car lot with her husband, probably more so so she can keep an eye on him and be with him 24/7. She's got to be making over $20/hour working here but will be making $10/hour.

    AND, she borrowed against her 401K and makes payments every paycheck (I know this bc I have a 401K loan out right now). Now if you move to a job where the company we have here, is the provider at your new job, you're cool. However, if they aren't (or your new job doesn't have retirement) you have to pay the loan back in full, within 90 days.

    And she borrowed the money to pay off a car for her hubby, who promptly sold the car for drugs. So she owes the money and has no car to show for it.

    He's a winner. And she walking away from a career of at least a decade, to basically babysit him. I truly hope she made the decision after thinking about it a lot but I'm pretty sure she made it bc she's pissed everyone is talking about her behind her back.

    Don't put your business out there if you don't want everyone talking about it. Just sayin...

    Well hopefully she pulls her head out of her rear before he completely ruins her. It's bad enough when a person destroys their own life, why do they have to take others with them?

    In other news, it looks like I'm going to become a full- time daywalker soon. Can I still hang out with you guys?

    THIS!

    This is why I had VERY little initial sympathy or empathy for my coworker when her husband died because she put out EVERY complaint about him.

    I hope your coworker figures her life out.

    Ugh... my ONE friend, I cannot get a hold of her and I want to hang out on Thursday if it's at all possible. Night shift REALLY put a damper on us hanging out...

    Animal control brought in a cat for us. It was in a camper trailer on this guys property. The trailer caught fire with the cat inside. Surprisingly, it was not burned. We treated for smoke inhalation and after an hour in oxygen with steroid injections, she was doing OK. Now we just need to come up with a name. I said smokey but I'm getting out voted.

    Still no word. We're all kinda waiting for the woman to take her resignation back when she realizes how much of a mistake she's making.
