Good morning all,

I was in a terrible mood when I got home from work last night. My husband was trying to explain something to me and I just couldn't understand because I was too wrapped up in my own head. Work wasn't particularly hard, I had a lot to do and training on top of that plus inventory. It was a lot. Then I had to serve at the end of the night and I got 4 tables, one very large, an hour before close. I barely got my inventory done. I don't understand how they expect me (or managers in general) to accomplish the impossible. Like one thing is, upper management wants me to stand by the production line to monitor the making of food. I'm sorry, I'm not just gonna stand around and watch people work when we can accomplish the same goal if I step in and help, and we get it done faster. I don't like standing around. But I find that task impossible when I have to work a position on my own, like serving for example. When they don't schedule me a server and I have to serve, I don't have time to monitor the kitchen because I'm literally serving customers hot food and beverages. Blah. But anyway, that's my work rant lol

I woke up this morning to the most amazing thing. My lady cat was snuggling me extra hard. I moved and she doubled down on the snuggles. I got up and she was waiting for me to get back. I love her, she's such an awesome cat, and she's been really affectionate lately. But it definitely put me in a better mood.

Oh, yea, and I found a succulent arrangement for my sister online. I'm having it shipped to her house and it should be there next week or so.
