Glad to hear from you but sorry that work is causing stress. Seems to me its really not your issue, but their issue. It can be frustrating and difficult to have co-workers who are really not your peers and have no understanding of people different than themselves. And if you were my most reliable e...

Very sorry to hear you are having all these problems & hope thing can be sorted out. You do not need pressures like that but good for you for still working there despite these issues. sending :hug: :hug: I have student loans to pay it's not like when I was younger and had no real bills. I have ...

It is very good to hear from you and to find out that your "absence" is due to being so busy with working. I think your saving for your Mom's birthday is wonderfully unselfish. Understandable as to why you don't have time to stitch or crochet or work on other projects right now. But pleas...

Ah, but they probably tip well! :king: When Younger Son was working in catering, he used to bring back more in tips than in wages some weeks over Christmas. Some do some do not. My tips go towards paying my student loan payments and my checks go into savings for a car, but thankfully work is only m...
