I'm feeling helpless.![]()
Last Friday night, I was working at my "second" club and twisted my ankle. It happened early in the shift, and by the end of the night it was swollen, so I called my second club boss and told him I'd be unable to work my shift they next day. "How bad is it?"he asked. "Do you need your Sunday shift covered too?" I told him it seemed minor and I thought I'd be fine for Sunday. So on Saturday, I usually work a double. Since I had cancelled my first shift at my "second" club, I took it easy that day, iced my knee...then went in to work my night shift at my "home" club.
Just my luck, I busted my knee that night. Really bad. It swelled to cantaloupe size. I had to call my boss again at my "second" club and cancel for Sunday too. "I could have covered it had you agreed to that YESTERDAY when we talked about it!" he said. I explained again, that now I had both an ankle AND a knee injury, and the knee injury had happened since we'd last spoken. "Oh, okay." he said. He agreed that I should go to the doc and take the coming week off. He scheduled me for tonight only.
NEXT I texted my "home" club boss to submit my schedule for the upcoming week. I normally work 2 mids and 2 nights there a week, and always get Saturday night. I texted and explained that I was injured but should be better by Saturday (tomorrow) and would really like to work just that one shift, as I needed the money.
So he posts the schedule and I'm not on it.
It's the regular Saturday night crew, with another girl in my place. This girl is an oxy addict, and the last 3 shifts she worked, she was an HOUR late and caused lot of drama. WTF? I am always on time, no drama, no drugs, over a year at that club, with a ton of regulars and he knows that. GRRR.
So here I am on my couch. At least I have the new season of the Office to watch. I have one night of work this week, tuition coming up, and my bf's mom is visiting in week, which will cost $ (to go out, food, etc.) and a doctor's bill to pay (going in today).
I can't even workout, which drives me crazy. Sigh.
