DGN Sick Call

Hmm. My job is such that were I to call in sick, I might not have a job anymore.

That is one of the unfortunate realities of living in a "at-will/right to work state"; your boss can fire you if he/she doesn't like the way your hair is combed on any given day, and you'd have no recourse if something like that were to happen.

Actually, if I were a regular employee, the union would have something to say about that. No, I'm just a temp in a part-time position and there are about 50 people who would be happy to take over my temp spot if I can't make it even just one day.

If I called in sick Kohls would fire me on the spot...I guess I am the only guy that can unload the truck by myself...even though the job calls for at least two people for safety and such...oh well. Too bad I am not a state employee that can call in "not feeling like working today" and still get paid.

    • What If I actually finish my Masters degree? Like what if I don't screw up? I mean I am almost half way finished. The part that scares me is the amount of money that it costs and the fact I have to do an internship the last two semesters,  I mean I have burned some bridges in the field um, lots of bridges like I'm cool with people from Jobs I've quit though but this field I been kinda medically retired and it sucks, I want to try and fix myself..my health has improved a lot but I'm still crazy as hell. My bf was impressed because when he first met me we was drinking one night and I was being a goof as I do but all of a sudden my mom's friend called me and wanted me to help her with a situation involving her son and the court system and I immediately sobered up and told her what they should expect and what they could do and my bf was like,  wow, you just snapped right into business like no problem.  I was like yea, I'm not completely crazy yet. Lol Ok ramble over. I'm killing time until this Midnite and Nyquil kick in.
    • The poor lady across the hall is elderly and lives all alone. She has a cat at least one that I seen on her balcony (we had a staring contest) Anyway, the cat piss stench permeates all the way through the door into the hall and into our apartment.  It's so bad like concerningly so. She is very independent, seems very sweet but I don't think she'll allow me to help her out because one day she was trying to get up the stairs with a couple bags and I offered to help but she thanked me very gratefully and said she was OK. I don't want to say anything about the smell and my bf is nose blind and only noticed because I pointed it out.  The smell though..I hate seeing elderly people who have noone😢 
    • ..and went for my fifth walk today just now.
    • I probably should clean my outlook lol.
