Day Two Hundred and Seventy Seven: New Hire


My newest hire is pretty cool.
He’s an opera major with a second major in English, creative writing. And he’s thinking about adding an Italian major. His FSEM teacher is my old advisor. We have a lot to talk about. Not to mention he’s super friendly and a quick learner.
My shop is going a little crazy
on me right now. I’ve had three people quit on me with little to no notice. I feel a little like I’m drowning because I get absolutely no help from my owners. I’m just so stressed and tired and I’m working a job that really should not be causing me so much stress. I work in a freaking ice cream shop, for goodness sake, why is it so hard? I wish that I could hire people I know; I have plenty of friends who need jobs. Unfortunately, because my owners don’t understand how bad a cram we’re in, I have been forbidden to hire people who are my friends. Once again, I feel like they just want to drive me to quit.
Yeah, if I quit, this whole place would fall in on itself.

Challenge to my Readers:

Take peace in the little things and fight on. Eventually it has to get better. Right?
