“True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and choice.”

Can I just say I’m so sick and tired of people. People who don’t give a shit about you and you try to maintain a relationship with someone because of family relationships or because you’ve known someone so long you’re just more friends because of that.

I am so sick and tired of work I am ready to freak out. I’ve spent about a million hours there in the last 4 days. SUCKS. I’m supposed to ask for help, and when I do, yeah, I don’t get it. Extra awesome.

Plus, today, I got seriously reamed for a fuck up at work (seriously, it wasn’t *that* bad and was resolved, however, corporate policy dictates we are reactive instead of proactive) so I took my part in stride and admitted my fault in the issue and apologized and said I would do my best not to let it happen again. I didn’t assure them it wouldn’t happen again, because as much as I don’t want it to happen again, I’m in no position to make those kind of promises. After that meeting I was called into my supervisor’s office and told that I am doing a great job with all of the additional duties given to me and they were impressed with my response and the fact I didn’t get too defensive (of course I had my reasons, because no normal person can take criticism without being somewhat defensive).

Then I think that I am going to have to quit my work-study, at least until the first of the year. I’m not really thrilled about it, but hopefully my supervisor understands and I will be able to continue working with the program again after the first of the year when things are supposed to start settling down.
