Oops I Did it Again in Current Events

I surrendered to the tiredness and let myself fall asleep after my shift today. I feel great but now I’ll be up late and be tired at work tomorrow. I’ll live.

Is this retrograde season really affecting me? I’m experiencing so many first world problems all at once. Now my car is beeping at me to get an oil change and put air in my tire. I am driving to a different city this Saturday. I’m having second thoughts about it and so my manifestation powers are making the decision for me, it seems. I prefer to be a man of my word. I’m still going to drive out there to visit my baby sister and her new baby.

People on my team are starting to show their true colours. I made that sound sinister but it’s not. They’re starting to open up to me about the place. Especially Marcello. We hit it off right away. I eventually caved and gave up any and all hope of having cool-kid status and asked for it birthday so I could peek at his birth chart. I knew I was going to find Libra in there. My world is always overflowing with Libras. He has a Libra moon, Aires sun. I was looking for Taurus and Gemini and found it also. Gemini Mars. He needs to be constantly stimulated. He can’t go too long without talking to someone. He’s 34, just 3 years younger than me and that threw me off. He looks much younger. I can tell that he needs to make big changes in his life. The stars are aligned for it right now. The vibe I get is that he followed the path of the red-pillers, the hustle culture, and got the coins, the girl and had the kids and is now lost about what to do with his life now. I think he feels stuck.

Claudia, she’s a Capricorn but must have a lot of Sagittarius… or maybe she’s just Columbian lol. She’s got a lot of sass.

My supervisor has a new boss that came by. I had a quality check today that I wasn’t expecting. He joined in on it. Talk about intimidating. I know how to speak jargon and save face. It went pretty good. I am starting to understand what my new supervisors expectations are compared to my previous one. My previous one is standard and POG integrity, no compromising. My new one is more about aesthetics. “Putting lipstick on a pig.” She calls it. So I need to be more focused on being an actual merchandiser.

There needs to be a culture change in the store. Nobody cares there. “We are more relaxed here.” They say. My supervisor was busy and I didn’t get a chance to show her a few problems that I ran into. Because we let the store have there way with the shelves, I found two products that got lost in their shuffle. We have the products but their facings got lost so these items are not selling. When you let the store shenan once they will shenanigan.

I was reading the minutes from various meetings the store had posted in the staff room and saw safety as a big concern from the staff. Managers don’t seem to care or want to hear it. That’s my speciality… should I want to make a stink.

Tomorrow is TGIF and I thought today was Friday this morning. I started my Friday self-care routine prematurely. Oh well.

Is there any eye candy at my new workplace? Meh. There is a lot of cake though.

I should be done talking about work daily after this first week. I will return to my unusual programming. The cosmos has been screaming at me to make content. Do the scary thing! Is the message I am getting. Come payday, I will buy a microphone. My brain does girl math. I can buy it now and just pay it off on Friday like I did absolutely everything else I overspent on last week but… it doesn’t feel right in my head.

My feet are so sore.

I looked to see how much my full-time benefits cover and wow! I am booking that osteopath for next week. I have room to book a naturopath as well. I want to use it up before it resets in January. I also need to figure out how to get my new work books covered. I didn’t set my wellness account up for it but I can change that.

Anyway. Now I’m going to be up all night. Shit. Couldn’t have let it happen on a Friday? Lol maybe a glass of wine will do the trick… but then waking up will be an absolute betch. First world problems. I like these problems better than the ones I had before so I won’t complain.
