I think the drama makes us human.

There's drama boiling at work at the moment. Managers being fuckwits. Not respecting their staff. I don't think they even want to resolve our staffing crisis because I don't think they want someone else on the books. I found out last night I'll never be a manager and it has nothing to do with performance and all to do with age and salary. Rather than promote someone they're going to get a placid staff member to do it because they know she won't say anything about doing management duties on standard wages.

And the situation about the knock off drinks is all we talk about on shift. Major disrespecting of staff. Even worse when I found out it wasn't faceless head office who did it - it was the venue manager we actually work with and who gives away free drinks to his stupid little redneck mates.

When it's good it's very very good. But when it's bad it's horrid.

just saying to take the drama out of things you cant control. if there is nothing you can do about the situation you may as well just let it go save energy and use it somewhere more constructive.

i'm glad you guys can just get it off your chest and tell it how it is. reckon you can apply it to life in general? i'm finding it really hard but i'm gonna give it a go

hmmm yeah, and telling it how it is to the people who need to hear it too i suppose...???

im getting slightly better at telling people when something isn't right for me... without being a bitch or making a drama out of it... but sometimes it is still so damn hard to get the words out and express that i think this or that is just fucked up and stupid and and i'm so frustrated that i bottle it up... sometimes exploding in a fit of rage... it's true... i am capable of rage... i don't think any of you guys have seen it before... but it happens.

i'm getting better at dealing with stuff before it gets to that stage... but sometimes it still takes a lot for me to do that... but i'll take on the challenge and try my darndest to keep trying...
