My day….
Work began with a pile of tasks on my desk which was nice and sitting like the kid no one wanted to play with were these 30" x 44" set of plans to be bid. I cracked into them by the day’s end which worked out fine, but by the details it’s the kind of job which would best be completed if I had back to back days so I could focus on that the entire time. These part time hours suck balls though.
Midway through my shift I get a call from the only company on Long Island which teaches & certifies for AUTOCAD. I had been in correspondence with them to find out more about their short term program; 60 hours mon-thursday 6:30am-9:30am. This just isn’t doable with Nina working until 9pm and her commute home is 45 minutes on a good day. The whole time my boss is standing there as I have to explain to this woman why I can’t. if I could handle the damn program like I want to I’d be able to search for a better damn job. By the conversation’s end I felt pretty dejected, it just felt like another door was closing in my face. Moments like this just shrink my self worth and damage me. Shaking it off wasn’t easy and I was glad I didn’t have to be bothered with Casey the secretary being there or Rick my boss who tends to stay upstairs and do god knows what.
So My nutritional counseling worked out well, I connected with the doctor who spent a full hour speaking with me and I feel like we were on the same page. He is hoping I can lose 1-2 lbs per week and honestly I am too. I just need to really focus and apply myself.
Ok, enough of me for now.
Glad to hear your meeting with the nutritional doctor went well! I am sorry about the course, though; feeling stuck in a job where you are not able to use all of your skills can be so frustrating. *hugs*
