a kind woman and her teenage daughter came to our cafe, and after they ate they wanted to tip but IDK WHY i refused it. The embarrassing part is that i was like, looking like a threat bcz i kept repeating “No ill come back with your change!!!!” omfgggg i cant imagine what they were thinking WHYWHWYWHWYW i hope i never see them again for their sake.

trying to forget painful embarrassing moments at work is so hard

owesifazane onomusa nentombazane yakhe esencane beza kukhafe yethu, futhi ngemva kokudla bafuna ukuhlinzeka kodwa angazi ukuthi kungani ngingakwenzi. Ingxenye edumazayo ukuthi ngangibukeka njengengozi ngoba ngiphindaphinda “Cha, ngizobuya ngenguquko yakho!!!!” omfgggg angicabangi ukuthi babecabanga ukuthini WHYWHWYWHWYW ngithemba ukuthi angizukubabona futhi ngenxa yabo.

ukuzama ukulibala izikhathi ezibuhlungu nezidumazayo emsebenzini kunzima kakhulu

...did this the day before and learned a lot ..tho so embarrassing to practice 😅

me after giving CPR😅🤣🤣🤣

...ngenze lokhu ngosuku olwandulela futhi ngafunda okuningi ..nakuba kuhlanya kakhulu ukukwenza 😅

Kholelwa kuwe. Usuku nosuku yithuba elisha lokushintsha konke.

After working

Ngemva kokusebenza

After five years of working in that pit, the toxicity of assuming I had friendships, how did I?

My last straw that broke me mentality was when I realized my friend Shelly for years, turned out to be the one causing all my drama at work.

Way before I ended up pregnant with the same person that my old boss literally placed on a pillow, Catherine. Now, Catherine and I did end up pregnant at the same time and I was excited to share the experience.

Until I realized Catherine was throwing me under the bus with our mutual friend Kris. Kris was young, and I thought she was kind. She showed me her true colors when I rounded the corner to find her, Catherine, Shelly and our boss Shasta talking about me. I still cant get that smirk out of my head, it was cat like...and I was their mouse. 

Shasta, she broke my heart the moment she pulled me into the office before her promotion. She started demanding I owned up talking to HR about our old boss, Clint. I kept denying it only to find out thst Shelly used me as a escape goat. 

Shasta now the manager, and Shelly the assistant. Didn't know I would be treated with lack of care. They were never my friends neither, along with Lela, and Abe. 

Abe really shocked me, I honestly thought he would have cared. He didn't, he actually joined in with them and even as a school counselor for a elementary school. I felt safe around him, and I would tell him things only to discover he told Shasta and Shelly everything. I should've known he wasn't nice wheb he stole cash rewards from our customers and handed them out to Lela and Kris. 

Who would believe me? Even if I went to HR, no one from that store would have stood up for me. Even when I thought Lela was my friend. When he would comfort me when Shasta or Catherine was mean to me. She would text Shelly while at work when Shelly was off about updates about me. I guess being paid under the table to watch Shelly's son got you in the pharmacy.

The same position I was working towards but Shasta told me I was too far along in my pregnancy to take the courses. The same pregnancy that was constantly compared to Catherine when she is 10 years younger than me. 

I struggled to get pregnant and these people that I thought cared about me nearly caused me to lose him when I was sent to the ER for being dehydrated for run ing back and forth in the summer front counter and photo. Only to know that Kris and Abe was just sitting in the stockroom talking.

Matt was my only true friend, he was ran out by Shasta due to being trans. Abe would even, as someone from the  rainbow club, join in.  Not surprised, I always felt that he wasnt one of the good soul; even though his a Sunday school teacher as well on top of being a school counselor. No, Matt was and still is good. I remember when HR was called, Shasta called my cellphone demanding I tell her who called HR. I was so scared, Matt never held it against me for not speaking my truth. I was going through the worse PPD, and Matt held me as I cried. 


How did I survive? 

I held onto that hug from Matt, even when he had to leave. Matt was my only true friend from that store. I may have had to be in the pit for years , but Matt showed me even when you are down, you don't stop.

I did, I held on tight for not only myself but for my son. My son needed me to work because we lost our benefits despite my husband losing his job. The weight came off not because of my workout plan I told my ex coworkers, but I starved.

Our foodstamps have been taken along with my son's wic and insurance. I made aure my husband and son ate while I struggled to pay my own bills. Work was cutting back on my hours due to my spinal injury from giving birth. 

(Don't get me started on the bullying and harassment Shasta and that whole team put me through over my stool. Which, it was rainbowed colored)

The way those women gossip behind my back, but I kept going. Despite the looks, the whispers, and the fake smiles. Even when I was pulled in the office with my two very "best friends" from the start  Shasta and Shelly and threw a "Mental Health" packet and in a professional way 

'We are going to fire you'

News flash, thank you Matt for helping me get enrolled into the free therapy 🥰😘

They were shocked to find out that I was already 6 weeks into my therapy. Soon, Shelly world came all crasijg down, the lies she built on me tumbled, out the door she went leaving me with Shasta and  Catherine .

Yet, I already had my foot out the door and into another job before the holidays. Your scape goat and working mule is OUT OF HERE

Spite. 

It was Spite

How did I survive?

Ngemuva kweminyaka emihlanu ngisebenza kuleyo ndawo, ubungozi bokucabanga ukuthi nginobungane, ngiyaphila kanjani?

Ithambo lami lokugcina eliphukile kwangiphatha kabi kwaba lapho ngiqonda ukuthi umngane wami uShelly, iminyaka eminingi, waba yisizathu sokuthi ngibe nezinkinga emsebenzini.

Phambilini, ngaphambi kokuba ngibe nosana nomuntu ofanayo noMphathi wami omdala, uCatherine, owangibeka phansi. Manje, uCatherine noMina saphinde sathola ukukhulelwa ngesikhathi esifanayo futhi ngangijabule ukwabelana ngalesi sikhathi.

Kuze kube ngiqonda ukuthi uCatherine wayengithumela phansi ngethuba nomngane wethu ophakathi, uKris. U-Kris wayesencane, futhi ngacabanga ukuthi ungumuntu omuhle. Wangenza ngazi imibala yakhe yangempela lapho ngiphuma emnyango ngithole yena, uCatherine, uShelly nomphathi wethu uShasta bekhuluma ngami. Ngisakhumbula leyo mbono, kwakufana nekat, ...futhi ngangiyinsizwa yabo.

UShasta, waphula inhliziyo yami lapho engidonsa ehhovisi ngaphambi kokuphakanyiswa kwakhe. Waqala ukufuna ngikhulume ne-HR mayelana nomphathi wethu omdala, uClint. Ngahlala ngiphika kuphela ukuze ngithole ukuthi uShelly ungisebenzise njengomgibeli.

UShasta manje ungumphathi, noShelly ungumsizi. Angizange ngazi ukuthi ngizophathwa ngale ndlela. Babengekho abangane bami, kanye noLela, noAbe.

UAbe wangishaqisa, ngempela ngacabanga ukuthi uzongikhathalela. Akazange, waqhamuka nabo futhi ngisho njengomeluleki wesikole esiphakeme. Ngazizwa ngiphephile eduze kwakhe, futhi ngangimtshela izinto kuphela ukuze ngithole ukuthi uthumele uShasta noShelly konke.

Ngiyaphila kanjani?

Spent the whole day cleaning one of my favorite workplaces, plus every window today. My body is officially done 😅 But only a few more days until vacation starts on Friday 🥳🪟✨

My work today 🥳✨️🙏

Ngichithe usuku lonke ngihlanza enye yezindawo engizithandayo, kanye nawo wonke amawindi namuhla. Umzimba wami usuphelile 😅 Kodwa sekusele ezinsukwini ezimbalwa kuze kube sekupheleni kokuphumula ngoMgqibelo 🥳🪟✨

Umsebenzi wami namuhla 🥳✨️🙏

Night shifts....feels like lucid dreaming ... sometimes you are not sure if you are still awake or if you finally fell asleep...dying here 😴

🫩

Izinsuku zokusebenza ebusuku....zizwa njengokuphupha okucacile ... kwesinye isikhathi awuqiniseki ukuthi usaphila noma uma ekugcineni ulele...ukufa lapha 😴

Thankfully only the 3rd floor this time… unlike that one time on the 11th floor with one foot on the railing. 😅

More Window cleaning

Ngiyabonga ukuthi kube kuphela ophahleni lwesithathu kulokhu… hhayi njengaleso sikhathi ophahleni lwesishiyagalombili ngenyawo elilodwa emgibeni. 😅
