Today was a pretty good day. Granted there was one major issue, but a pretty good day.
On my 4 to 11 closing shift Sunday, my supervisor noticed I always order the cheapest item on the menu. The only shifts I eat on are long ones. Even then, I try to not eat anything because even when it's only $1.86 after tax, a half garlic loaf and really small thing of pizza sauce (no cheaper item on the menu) dad still gets super pissed about me spending HIS money. Some bullshit on me needing to learn I can't afford to eat where I work (he seriously would rather have me go hungry than spend $1.86 of HIS money on food). Anyway, I only order that cheapest thing as a snack sometimes. My supervisor told me to upgrade it to a half cheese loaf at no extra cost Sunday. Much appreciated. And tonight I wasn't even planning on ordering anything but as a thank you for how hard I work, she secretly made and gave me (at no cost) a WHOLE sandwich and chips. I didn't get a snack at work, I got a meal. It felt so good to not be hungry during the rest of my shift. And the sandwich tasted great too! During the meeting Saturday, I was feeling really, really down. They handed out some bonuses and even though I've previously caught supervisors telling the owner how great I work, I didn't get one. It really put me deeper in the hole. This helped me finally get over it. I mean, I have really massive issues asking for anything, and no one ever gives me anything. But she did. I had good food, and someone did something for me. Both very nice
Also, spent a good amount of time with my mutts. Man I'm going to miss them.
Gee, it did turn into a true rant. Fairly positive one at least
