FUN FACT IF YOU EMAIL ENOUGH PEOPLE SOMETIME (SOMETIMES) GOOD THINGS HAPPEN

#So email the people you need to email #I like emailing because its like setting free a carrier pigeon #it may or may not get my message there alive #but hey I tried #and don't ask don't get as my aunt says #also #don't be afraid to follow up #you're not bothering them I promise #I one emailed my thesis advisor six times in one week #because he wasn't getting back to me and im frightened of phone calls #and he still wrote me two letters of recommendation for various things #so people will still like you #even after a lot of emails

#i am close to tears - beware there is a rant about my life in the tags ahead so watch out - it's nothing VERY serious but it's... well #also this is literally about supernatural convention so it's not like a serious problem but it is a problem for me personally #so anyway last year when they announced misha for purgatory con 8 in dusseldorf i was like yes yes yes and i bought the tickets because:#1. i had a whole year to plan a trip 2. going to spn con was this little dream of mine because i've been in this fandom for years so #so i thought hey i deserve a little treat. i want to and deserve to go to a con and they just announced misha and i'd love to go #(and then they also announced jensen. and then jared too so like all 3 main guys will be there so !! a Treat !! yay!) and also Why Not #because it's in germany so it's the closest i would ever get a convention because i am from poland [*] no conventions here sorry #so i was like yeah the stars seem to have alligned yeah AND I BOUGHT THE TICKET. and the thing is SOLD OUT. and 3 main actor men are there #and a lot of mutuals that i'd finally love to meet maybe if they feel like it or whatever but i'd love to meet tumblr people so there's tha #and now. i just spent 3 hours after work looking for flights and everything. and. the conclusion. after 3 hours of looking at every possibl #way for me to get to Dusseldorf at the days of the con. well. the conclusion is i have no way to get there. and i am stuck.#and there are flights and they are not even that expensive. but the HOURS are horrible. i checked different airports and even looked at #flights to dortmund and i literally have no way to get there in a way that makes any sense... because arriving at 4pm on saturday is #too late. and the other option is being there at 8 am - cool - but i have no way of getting to the airport at 4 am. i'd have to take #additional day off from work (not an option). and i literally don't know what to do. it's almost 1 am and i should be happily asleep and i #am trying to solve this problem lmao because on one hand i really want to go and i want to figure out a way to get there 1. on time 2. in a #way that won't cost me 1/3 of my paycheck ; and on the other hand i just want to email the organizer to return the ticket or resell it to #someone because i know there will be someone who wants to go because the event is sold out #WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE THIS HARD......#AS I WRITE THIS I AM FULLY AWARE THIS IS SUCH A FIRST WORLD PROBLEM i know!!!!!! fully aware!!!!#but i just :(( really wanted to go :((( but i am slowly leaning towards the option of not going :((( because money and time :((#and the kilometers between me and the con place :(((((#personal

i was all excited about moving to cleveland because wow!! cleveland has so many jobs!! before i remembered that in america employers just ignore your application flat-out and the fact that they're "hiring" or have jobs posted means nothing at all

#still better than in chicago where there arent even a lot of jobs posted #but its so crazy stupid like. the cleveland public library is perpetually hiring floater/sub customer service ppl basically #its a job with very minimal requirements—all of which i meet #explain to me why i have not been reached out to at all after like 3 or 4 weeks. the job posting is STILL up.#they couldnt even send me a 'no thanks' email ??#dont even get me started on the non-library jobs. no acknowledgement of even receiving my application.#t

agab (assigned gender at bruce mcculloch)

#i might have made this joke before but holy shit it just got even funnier bc bruce just cc'd me on an email where any time he uses a pronoun #he says ''she/they''. like not alternating between she/they or putting it in parenthesis after my name #no. this man is out here typing sentences like ''it would be great if she/they could meet with you when she/they are in town''#i don't even use she/they pronouns where did this come from #(i told him i use ''any pronouns'' and hey this does technically count as ''any'')#he wants to be a good ally so much it's kind of adorable. and hilarious when you compare it to scott #who claims he ''doesn't get'' a lot of genderqueer stuff but then you talk to him more and he honestly gets it more than most people #anyway i need to just explain to bruce what neopronouns are and have him start calling me ze/zir #some people just see ''any pronouns'' and get lost in the sauce

bagged a trial shift at a new pub just for my manager to immediately put on facebook if anyone wants an extra shift on wednesday. he knows what im doing

#he said GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE RN #lmfaoooo the notif came through literally as i put the phone down i was like 😳😳😳#like that 'CONNOR' tiktok audio like no king im not doing anythinggg haha wdym #anyway im a bit annoyed that the first place to get back to me from my applications was this one #bc im pretty sure their pay is still minimum wage and also my cousin worked a trial shift there once #and not only did they not pay him but they also never called him back or even emailed to politely turn him down #literally just used him for free labour and that was that #word of warning from a very tired waitress if ur thinking about starting: always take trial shifts with a pinch of salt #if the trial shift is longer than 2 hours they really really should be paying you and if they dont the odds are you got mugged off #also the woman on the phone after i said i worked at the place i currently work at was like 'and do you still work there?' SHE KNOWS #and when i said yes she was like 'would you be willing to leave?' HOW CAN I BE TWO-TIMING BOTH OF YOU RN #LYING TO ONE JOB ABOUT SEEKING ANOTHER JOB LYING TO THE NEW JOB ABOUT LEAVING THE OLD ONE COME ON NOW #IM NOT BUILT FOR THESE LAYERS #but yeah summary here is i have a shift at my actual place on wednesday (thank god i havent had work in over a fucking WEEK)#and i have a trial shift at a new place where i'll most likely be offered a job. life is picking up #ALSO i have enough money to change my america flights bc basically something came up with that and i need to change my return flight #and i was originally rlly worried bc the change cost was £161 and that piled onto my current no-shifts stress was Not Fun #but ive been working a lot for my mum and i got paid for the shifts i HAVE done and it all kinda fell together anyway #the way everything is sorting itself today within the same HOUR yet ive been stressing about these things for days now #hella goes home #hella slaves to capitalism

"You've done your job. It's time for your next adventure!" (Robin Williams)

"I have no idea what I'm going to do tomorrow." (Ben Stiller)

"[reassuring] How exciting."

#anyway #Life update:#I put in my two weeks notice at my job after sending them an 1000 word email detail exactly what management's problem is #all because when I unloaded on them on Sunday when they weren't helping me they said “we understand”#so I said no but I will make you understand fuck you #my favorite hobby is sending strongly worded emails that are 1000 words plus long to my management team when they piss me off #fuck with my homies and i'll raise hell every time #you do not hurt them without having to answer to me #I may be five foot even and don't talk a lot but the minute you prompt me to open my mouth you will regret it #however i did still put my two weeks in because i hit my breaking point as someone who almost passed out and hearing that we understand #really got to me

There’s a good chance the person I work directly under at the rescue I volunteer for is going to reject my application for my special boy 🥲

#ive been approved since monday #she said she was gonna call today #after being like ‘we need to talk’ in an #email which is SUUUUPER ominous #and someone up the chain of command was asking me if I was willing to see other cats #so I texted the volunteer coordinator and she confirmed that the decision-maker was weirdly dragging her feet #we’ve had him for almost two months which is pretty long since it’s hard for us to have cats bc they need to gonto foster first #anyway #I’ve put a lot of thought into it and I didn’t make the decision lightly #and she hasn’t even asked me any questions about what I’m preparing for him #the real journal entry is in the tags #i cried my eyes out earlier :(

i know that other religions also use similar phrases but theres something so psychically disturbing to me abt when christians say rip about nonchristians because it’s like you’re mentally placing the person in your own theologically suspect afterlife and kind of comical with the extension that you at least traditionally literally do not believe that person is going to rest in peace because you believe theyll be tortured for eternity for not agreeing with you 👍 like it disconcerts me in kind of the same way as the baptisms for the dead just on a smaller scale

#will NEVER forget when i was at uni in ireland n they sent an email announcing a student had died #and concluded it with like an extremely catholic irish language condolence #and the student was muslim #ik a lot of modern xtians dont do the fire and brimstone thing #however maybe read the room when fire and brimstone has been used by xtians for centuries #against marginalised people to terrify them into obeying #so evoking the concept is still like a little bit fraught i have to say #i for some reason have really intense feelings about like respect after death for both the body and the person #i really don't know where it came from but i get like weirdly upset abt anything to do w that #even though im like objectively aware that its like not causing harm if theyre dead #like i cried my eyes out when i signed up to be an organ donor HSIUHGFGd #and i didnt put my eyes bc i just cant bear the thought of that
