[work][stress]


Yensia
So my boss got a job at another library, which is great for her; it's a step up, more pay, closer to home, all that good stuff.

Yensia
And I'm v. stressed because a lot of people are like "well you should do the branch manager thing" and it's not that I can't, it's that I hate being in charge of things. But you don't make more money in libraries if you don't try to move up.

Yensia
And one of my coworkers is transferring to another branch. Which again, is closer to home for her, and it's the same job (head of circ.)

And I'm just really...upset? Tired?

Yensia
I know change happens but I hate this change!

Yensia
And the two other work friends I have here are working elsewhere because covid

Yensia
And the pages are entering a polite cold war over how much work needs to happen in a day

Yensia
well two of them

Yensia
And I know it's dumb but I feel like people are leaving me

Yensia
I mean...I know that's not what it's about.

Yensia
But it's just really hard

Yensia
And I'm scared

Yensia
This is too much change!

Yensia
I just need to cry for a while and then I'll be okay

Yensia
I think

Yensia
well

Yensia
not...okay

Yensia
but okayish

Yensia
functional?

Yensia
I have to keep going. Kitten needs me.

change is hard, and this year has had a lot of Bad Changes

kawaiigami
Change is scary, yeah.


Yensia
I feel sick to my stomach...I know I'm overreacting

Yensia
well, that's a half hour of my life I'm not getting back.

Yensia
Part of it too is that the other work friends I was close to here are elsewhere

Yensia
So it's like...very lonely?

Yensia
Everyone else is on the level of work friendquaintance or farther

Yensia
That is, the other work friends I have here are doing covid related stuff

Yensia
On the upside(?) I've realized that the most important thing to me is who I work with, which is admittedly a crapshoot

Yensia
guh, I need to go do shelving

Yensia
I'm already exhausted and I still feel a bit nauseated

Yensia
aww shit body why are we crying again we have shit to do

I feel better now.

Yensia
Still sad but normal levels of sad, not meltdown levels of sad.
