I’m tired, I’m so tired. I have three days off a week and you think that would give me an advantage and it doesn’t. I’m overworked, so overworked most days I don’t even know what time it is during the day. I just know it’s not 530 yet, not that that matters because I always over stay my scheduled. If you asked me what I talked about I wouldn’t be able to tell you because I talked to over 25-30 people throughout the day. Some are happy, some are mad, some are over emotional about what they’ve been through. Doesn’t mean it’s not justified but sometimes you gotta just reign them back in. But today was just awful, I talked to a woman whose son killed himself in the RV she owned. She told me she went into it and regrets it, she can’t get the image of his head not being there. The police marked off the RV as a crime scene. I can’t get the words that the window was damaged from a part of his skull hitting the glass out of head. The way she described the blood and the damages to the RV are awful. I sat and listened to her tell me about him and his issues, hearing the regret in her voice as she describes the issues he’s had and her just trying to be a positive force in his life but unfortunately wasn’t enough to keep him here. I wondered if I at all made her feel better, I hope I could in some way make her feel even an oz better. Who knows, it makes you realize how short life is. But it makes me want to quit, it makes me want to enjoy my life. I mean 4 out of 7 days of my week, I’m miserable. I spend so much time feeling like I’m running around while just sitting. So much time hating my job, but mostly the company I work for. I understand we’re understaffed but I don’t understand how can see a problem and just not care. But the real issue is how corporate America does not care about its employees. They don’t want to hear your issues without solutions, meanwhile I don’t have 3 mins to spare to go to the bathroom let alone to not get paid to enough to come up with solutions. When did people just become so disposable. People are so afraid of socialism but aren’t afraid of capitalism squashing the hard working people. Do I leave a job I’m good at and like because I hate the company and feel overworked? I will lose my 401k, or do I stay for 2 more years and be fully vested and be miserable? What is worth it? My sanity? My self worth? My anxiety? Once I took my first solo trip in 2020 before COVID

I found myself realizing every 4-6 months I was going to take time off, so I could relax and feel somewhat normal. I’m about to take my second trip this year, I’m just excited to get away from my normal life and just breathe a little. Hopefully the next two weeks fly bye. ✌️🏼
