Friday at last

I had a surreal day at work. General Manager is now getting the mail and distributing it instead of accounting. OK, whatever. Mr. Finance Director was given access to the Sales department system. Funny I was never granted that access. Earlier this week Mr. Director took my safe key under "due diligence" cause the petty cash was short, which happened during my trainer's possession of the key and I had no idea how much was supposed to be in the petty cash. But hey, I don't have to deal with the general manager demanding a spreadsheet to explain why the cash count is off. Though, we get paid extra for bank runs so I get to miss out on $40 next month. He is also doing the morning revenue reconcilation so I just go through my emails and print invoices. The general manager is constantly stopping by Mr. Director's office to discuss things. Better him than me. I verified and charged our group events. Mr. Director decided he will verify the group event charges in the future and I just send the bills. Ok, whatever. He can handle fixing all the front desk mistakes that is one of my stressors. Yeah, you are helping me by entering banquet event charges into the system, but they are also giving me extra work fixing their screw ups. He ordered some paper and staples for the office. Funny, I was never given that access either. He also said the corporate office didn't like me using petty cash for office supplies, it only should go to pay for wood going to the grill. Excuse me? They won't give me a business credit card and they won't provide me with logins to direct bill things from companies, or tell me where to place orders. How else do they expect me to buy highlighters and Sharpie pens?

Then the end of the day comes and Mr. Director asks me to work the full 5 days next week to catch up instead of 2. We have a backlog caused by my 3 day absence. Of course, I said yes cause I need the money. I even checked the work website where we get paystubs and ask for days off. I am still listed under my salary and not changed to a new part time wage yet. Have to check on Monday to see if they change it. I applied for jobs but no answer yet. I was looking for part time extra money gigs, but now have to switch to full time job searching cause of the general manager wants me gone.

Went to my weekly visit to the old job hotel and had my free drinks with their happy hour. Got half price chicken tenders. Explained why I wasn't there last Friday (I was on my way to a psych ward) to visit them. They were supportive saying it was terrible that work demoted me after going to the hospital. I told them my roommate got a new job at a fast food place and he is so much happier than when sitting on the couch all day playing video games. He is still doing food delivery with his friend with a car. He is teaching him to drive too. Not having a driver's license really hurts his job prospects. Old supervisor was ready for me to come back, but I can't afford what they were willing to pay last time I was there and I hated working the overnight shift. Then came home to relax.
