I waited too long to post and now I'm tired. Going to work was difficult and I was just angry at a lot of things for no reason. Angry and depressed and forcing myself to get in the office. While there I was going through my emails and I saw that my boss sent a "Thought of the Day" which was all about taking action and asking for what you want. I don't know if it was my frustration or what but I walked into her office and said, "I don't want to do nights anymore." Okay, it wasn't exactly like that but it was close. I sat down and told her that I really needed to go back to days and we worked out a schedule. Eventually, I will be working Sunday through Thursday.
Now, it won't happen immediately which is actually a good thing because I got some stuff going on for the next few weeks. She needs to find someone to cover my shift at night so I'll probably not be able to make the change until January at the earliest. Something tells me I'll be walking into her office again in January and pressing the issue further but she was all for it. In addition, I also talked to her about hiring a friend of mine. It seems like we definitely have the positions. There were only four posted on the wall but apparently we are looking to hire 11 people so if anyone needs a job... send them my way.
Of course, I would recommend making them read some of my entries first because then they'll have some idea of what they are getting into by applying. It totally turned my day around. Yes, I know. I need to find another job all together and I will but I just don't feel ready yet. This is a great work around until I figure out if the couple of things I'm working on turn into something of greater interest. It will just be so nice to have nights off. Not to mention a Friday night and a Saturday. That's the best part.
