My Shit Day

It started with a visit to the council to fill in a standing order form for paying my rent... and the knowledge that however much I'm struggling financially at the moment, in 2 weeks' time, I'll still be struggling, but there's gonna be £50+ less a week for me to struggle on...

Then I went up to the office - and without going into too much detail - basically I got told "No internet, no texting, no private phone calls during work hours". And then I got told that I should have a lunch break... no going down the street and taking a soup or whatever back with me - and then I got sent down to the shop to cover from 1pm (with no dinner, coz I had to do the banking first)... so by 5pm, I'd had a row, no food, not even a coffee, and I'd spent an afternoon in a dead-quiet shop twiddling my thumbs.

Sometimes I wish I could just say "Fuck it... I'm going to give in to that depression and stop trying to fight", but I can't... I can't afford to try to live on SSP, or dole, and what happens then when I'm "better" and can't get another job?

So, no music posts or anything tonight... I'm too tired and hacked off.

You have to have a lunch break, then he sends you down to the shop without one....
