Dear life, I am seriously doing my best to stay positive. So why do you keep kicking me down? I don't know if I have much optimism left. I try to joke about how awful this job is, but I can't keep it up forever

Aka - it's been discovered that I've made a huge fuck up and have no created HOURS of more work for me and another girl

and if I was working under normal conditions this would have never happened, but it's still a huge fuck up that I never should have allowed to happen

This job is ruining all the confidence I've built up to say I'm an awesome Assistant Editor right now. I just want to give up and go home.

mistakes happen to anyone, and it's not surprising that even an awesome amazing editor as I'm confident you are, would make a mistake in that clusterfuck of a work "environment"
