I’ve emailed twice now. They’ve removed my pictures, leaving ugly grey boxes saying that remote linkage is not allowed, upgrade my account. No problem. I tried to upgrade my account and got a message stating they are no longer accepting upgrades. WTF?! You’re pretty much telling me that you don’t want my money or my business!Are these people retarded!?Then, I send an email to customer support stating the problem. You’ve removed all my images due to “remote linking” AND you won’t allow my to upgrade my account! What’s going on!?  Do you think I got an answer?!  Oh no.Now, today I find that there are MORE images removed and MORE big ugly grey boxes left behind telling me to upgrade my account. YET AGAIN, I cannot upgrade the account.  This is one shoddy way to run a business, let me tell you!I think I need to be surfing for a new place to host my blog.....Any suggestions anyone?

Okay...I’m thinking (yes, I know it’s hard to believe. No, there’s no smoke yet,) this is going to by my last week on the physical labor side of the grocery business!!! OH YEEHAW!I spent two hours yesterday in the office with the office manager, learning all of things that I will be in charge of while I am “filling in until a decision is made."So, it’s basically unofficially official. We are just not wanting to step on anyone’s toes, and I know of one employee who is going to shit a brick when she finds out, but, what can I do? So, this means that today, this 10 hour day I am preparing for, is my last day as a “Grocery Manager”. This day, is the last day I have to worry about throwing up 780 gallons of water, 20 cases of product at a time, making bales, cleaning everyone else’s messes in the backroom......NO MORE BACK ROOM! Oh hell yes! And, maybe my back can heal totally. I didn’t do any lifting yesterday, I passed it all off onto my carryouts, and my back today is no where near as sore as it was yesterday. I can’t wait to be done with it!Friday night we are having a going away party for Annalisa at Ruby Tuesday’s at the mall. Dad is going to set it up for us! I am so excited!  I am going to miss Annalisa though. She’s so sweet, and she’s so much fun. She’s a great person.  I just can’t believe the timing of everything and how perfect it is. I’ve always, always, always wanted office manager. Perfect hours, perfect job for me. Never in a million years did I think I would ever get it. Office managers don’t go anywhere. I am glad Annalisa decided she wanted to go to real estate school. I just hope she doesn’t come back in a month and want her position back! That would suck!Ahh, time for another cup o’ java. By then I’ll be ready for the day!*Smile today, for no reason. It makes people wonder what you’re up to!*

I wonder if, because back pain is such a commonality among the population, that it is looked upon as a scapegoat. To inform your supervisors that you’re experiencing back pain and might want to take it easy, you are looked at as though you were just making up excuses for being unproductive for a day or so. I do believe that back pain is the medical reason for 90% of the liability suits out there against major companies. Customer, slips and falls, employee, lifted too much weight. It’s an issue for employer and the back pain sufferer.I am no stranger to back pain. I’ve experienced some form of it from time to time since I was a teenager. I was told that the sports I participated in would cause the pain and I’d probably be dealing with it my whole life. (And they wonder why the teen suicide rates are high when they tell you things like this at such a young age.) I’ve worked through the pain most times when it flares up. Go a little slower, don’t lift so much of anything for a couple of days. Yadda Yadda.  For some reason, this time, I can’t even tie my shoes and we’re going on a week here.My manager keeps looking at me like I am a big baby. I have a very high tolerance for pain, so the fact that this has me almost in tears when I am sitting still, scares me a little. I haven’t stopped doing my job. I haven’t filed a suit against my work either. I know that is part of why my manager acts like there’s nothing really wrong, he thinks I am going to go after the company. I keep telling him no way, it’s not something that I did on the job. It’s an old injury that is flaring up. However, I will tell him if I don’t take it easy, working will make it worse or do some permanent damage, in which case, the company would be liable. He doesn’t like that answer.Today I have a zero radius at the waist. I cannot move in any direction more than an inch without causing some serious discomfort. Tie shoes? Shoot. I can’t even get dressed, let alone tie a shoe. It started getting this bad last night after work. I am going to have to take a Percocet or two today before work, I hate doing that, but I can’t move here! I certainly can’t call in sick either. I just hope there’s some good carry outs there today whom I can use to do all the lifting and heaving labor today. I am afraid of what would happen if I tried.Guess we’ll be putting a call in to the Doctor tomorrow......like I have nothing better to do!

I am getting frustrated. I sure hope that I find out today if I got the new position at work. I am so very tired of working nights, of physical labor (yes I sound like a whiney little bitch), and I am tired of not being able to spend time with my children.Here’s to hoping.
