שפכי כמים ליבך

I am me. I have flaws. I own up to my mistakes. I know exactly what I like and want. Most of the time. When I don't, it's because I haven't taken the time to word it in my head.

Name:
Location: Ramat Gan, Israel

I am a mystery!

Just Venting

I don't get it. 8 hrs. are 8 hrs. what is so hard to understand there? Just because you get screwed over does not mean you need to screw over innocent bystanders. It's so annoying! One girl has something she just can't cancel, so she screws someone else. That someone else doesn't want to be screwed so they arrange something that can't be changed and screw the next girl over. And so on and so forth until it falls to me, and there's no one left to screw over. So I get screwed over by everyone. "What? I screw you over? Me? Now?" or, "Fine, you're going to be mad because I want to screw you over, fine. I'll be mad at you too."
Except when I want to "screw people over" because I have a therapy session to deal with them for, "Why can't you switch shifts with me? You're so mean!" " She's crying, she needs that shift, why can't you switch with her?"
Or, when it's about working on a Friday, the worst possible day no matter what time Shabbos comes in, "Come on, please switch with me, I need to go home." Funny how no one thinks, maybe this isn't good for Ayelet. Maybe this is a bad time, or, maybe I'll give her a break and not make her switch with me, again. Nope. Let's "unintentionally" dump it on Ayelet because she's the easiest to screw over. Except when I object, "Why can't you?" I become the bad guy for not being everyone's flunky or punching bag, yet that's exactly what I feel I'm forced into. Guys, if you comment, please, no cheap advice.

Sorry jelly. I feel you. No need getting guilt-ridden for not getting walked all over by insensitives. you don't owe people anything. sacrifice when it counts, for those you love, those who have earned it (note the comma between those categories, it may be interpreted however you like). Was that ok, not too cheap [he asks, looking around for approval off camera], ok? not cheap? was that ok? [somewhere in the background, we hear pythonesque voices yelling "yes. yes. no. yeah. no."]
