I was having a great night out, enjoying the bars, when suddenly everyone gets kicked out... because it's Good Friday?!
To make matters worse, I spotted the CUTEST guy walking out of one of the bars... and didn't even get a chance to talk to him!
HR is literally the worst. I've been dealing with an 'investigation' at work and it's been a total nightmare. They're just a bunch of corporate cops who only care about covering the company's b***, not actually helping employees.
It's all about protecting the company's image and avoiding lawsuits, not about doing what's right or fair. And the worst part is, they have all the power and you're just at their mercy.
I'm so over this whole process. Just ready for it to be over and to move on from this toxic workplace.
Can't people just answer a simple question?! I'm not asking for rocket science, just a straightforward answer.
I'm exhausted. I'm exhausted from working non-stop, from pouring my heart and soul into my job, from sacrificing my free time and energy... only to still be struggling to make ends meet.
I got paid yesterday, and what did I get to do with that money? Did I get to treat myself to something nice? Did I get to put it towards a savings goal? Nope. I got to use a fifth of it to pay bills that my dad was supposed to take care of.
It's like no matter how hard I work, no matter how many hours I put in, I'll never be able to live comfortably. I'll never be able to breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that I've got enough money in the bank to cover my expenses.
And it's not just the money. It's the stress, the anxiety, the feeling of being trapped in this never-ending cycle of poverty. It's the knowledge that I'll never be able to afford the things I want, the things I need.
I feel like I'm drowning, like I'm stuck in this ocean of debt and responsibility, with... Read More
Seven. Years. WASTED. That's how long I spent in that soul-sucking school, surrounded by people I thought were my friends. But no, they were just fake, plastic, superficial 'friends' who only cared about themselves.
And the worst part? I ignored all the signs. I ignored the way they would gossip behind my back, the way they would only invite me to things when it was convenient for them, the way they would never, ever be there for me when I needed them.
It took me until now, three months after I finally realized the truth, to see that I was just a p*** in their game. A game of popularity, of status, of who could care less.
I'm so angry at myself for wasting so much time on those toxic people. I'm angry at myself for ignoring my intuition, for ignoring the red flags. But most of all, I'm angry at them. For pretending to be something they're not. For using me. For wasting my time.
I'm done. I'm done with fake friends, done with toxic relationships. I'm done wasting my time. It's time for me to move... Read More
Bathroom selfies are the WORST. Who thinks a dirty mirror and some tile walls make for a good backdrop? It's just so... tacky. And what's the point, anyway? Are you trying to show off your 'I just rolled out of bed' look? Not impressed.
I'm FED UP with covering for colleagues who can't be bothered to find childcare during our busiest morning hours! Critical meetings and EMEA calls are constantly being disrupted because they're dropping off their kids.
Can't they find alternative arrangements?! It's not my job to cover for their parenting responsibilities! #ChildcareIsNotMyJob #WorkLifeBalance #MorningMayhem
I am SO FED UP with my partner right now! I swear, I don't even recognize the person they've become. They're always so critical, so condescending, so completely unsupportive.
I feel like I'm walking on eggshells around them, never knowing when they're going to blow up at me for something ridiculous. And don't even get me started on the lack of communication! They never listen to me, never try to understand my perspective. It's always their way or the highway.
And the worst part is, they have no idea how their behavior is affecting me. They're so self-absorbed, so caught up in their own little world. They don't care that I'm hurting, that I'm feeling completely drained and exhausted by this relationship.
I'm tired of being their emotional punching bag. I'm tired of being constantly criticized and belittled. I'm tired of feeling like I'm not good enough, like I'm never going to measure up.
You know what the worst part is? I love them. I love them so much, and that's what makes this so hard. I want to believe that they're capable of change, that they're capable... Read More
Ugh, people's hatred for Black women is EXHAUSTING. We're constantly torn down, criticized, and erased. Our bodies, hair, voices, and choices are always under attack.
Can't we just exist in peace?! Can't we just be valued and respected like everyone else?! It's infuriating and heartbreaking. I'm so done.
For years, Republicans have been spewing lies and half-truths, and they get away with it! Meanwhile, Democrats are over here fact-checking and trying to be honest, and we're getting creamed!
Can't we just flip the script for once?! Can't we just go out there and tell the story we need to tell, even if it's not 100% true?! I'm so sick of playing by the rules while the other side cheats and wins! It's time for a change!
