We went out for hot chocolate and cake. And my plans for today mostly involve reading books, with a little bit of light work thrown in :3 I'm definitely listening to my body and resting this time, I don't want it to get worse.

Working in a supermarket doesn't sound bad. It's a wage like you say. And it might give you some time to think and look around for a job you really want to do. Sounds like you'll have fun over the holiday though :D What's it for? A religious or political thing, or just random?

Good decision, I'm glad you're resting :mccute:

Yeah, I thought the same thing. And it usually doesn't involve being a pesky person trying to sell anything, you're just obliged to offer something on sale or a regular customer card or whatever. Not too hard, right?
I hope we can both just relax these few days, Ash is pretty stressed as well.
May 1st is labour day and May 3rd is our Constitution Day :) So random and national :mclol:

Oh, relaxing with hot chocolate and cake sounds good :)
We had some strawberry cake this afternoon, since I was lazy and went into the city for shopping instead of being productive, so I brought home cake.
It was kinda justified though, since I got a call that some stuff I had ordered in a shop had arrived on thursday and I didn't know when I'd have the next chance to go and pick it up, so yeah. Still being lazy though :D

Being a cashier doesn't sound bad, as long as the customers are not too rude. Since you still have to be always nice and polite to them and stuff.

Having two holidays back to back like this sounds neat :) We only have the 1. of may off, but that's nice already :) We might be going to a craft market thingy, since one guy who had a stall on our christmas market gave me the hint that there is someone who has a stall there that might have the kind of thing I was looking for but he didn't have. (Huh, that somehow turned out sounding unnecessarily complicated. I was looking for a short cape to wear over my winter coat since it's getting kinda thin at the shoulders and I get cold. He had things in that direction but not quite what I was looking for, so he told me about the market in may where I might be more lucky. I thought that was really nice, but he said something like people doing these things need to stick together and recommend each other, it's only going to help everyone, which makes sense. I wouldn't have known about the market at all if not for him.)

@mem: Oh sounds cool. We have 7th May as a random holiday, except it doesn't exactly apply to me, and J's deliberately working that day since more people will be shopping and he might get more commission XD Oh well. We have our holidays on different days XD But yeah, it sounds fairly uncomplicated, which could be nice.

@Chriz: my cake was strawberry too! Great minds think alike :mcwink: Oh it's nice that he did that. I guess if they aren't really competing, because they sell different stuff, then it's no skin off his nose.

Haha, it seems so!
I love strawberry season, I miss them so much the rest of the year.

Well, he was selling some hats and scarves and jackets and the like, so I'd assume they have some overlap, but still. He didn't have what I wanted, so it isn't really a loss to him, and this way I will likely visit that market - if everyone behaves like him that gets more visitors to the markets for all of them, so it does make a lot of sense. Otherwise I might have tried finding what I want in some normal stores (haha, sure thing, as if they had that...) or on the internet. Or I might end up sewing something myself after all, but I don't really want to, since I think it would be hard to find the kind of fabric I'd need, at least in person, and ordering it would be difficult because I wouldn't know what to look for without touching it and seeing if it feels right.

jacob, I am sorry to hear about the stress you went through with the train and the pain and stuff. I hope you feel better by now! And getting cake is a nice way to treat yourself :)

Everyone seems so keen on strawberry cake :D I feel like the only person in the world who doesn't like it.
But I am not that into fruity cakes anyway. I prefer chocolate or cream or the like. Oh or nuts/nougat.

mem, this sounds like a plan actually. As Chriz said, maybe work there for the time being, until you can find something more suitable. At least you will be occupied, you gain experience and money. Sounds good!

Yes, this guy is actually really cute. And what's even better: he is smart, mature and he is going to the gym. I love all those things. But on the other hand I do not know him yet, so I am eager to find out how he really is!
In fact, we are going to on a date on Monday after work. I am super excited already!!

@Julez ooooh good luck! Hope you two have fun :D I'm excited to hear about it.

Yeah, I'm feeling better today :) Just got to remember to stop pushing myself like this. It's hard to adjust because I grew this attitude of just doing whatever it takes to get things done >.> Well, I started from a position of being too scared and nervous to do anything at all on my own, so I suppose it's still an improvement.

@Chriz More visitors is always a good thing ^^ Even from my limited experience, sitting at a stall where hardly anyone comes in to the market is... not at all fun.

Ohhh, that sounds promising Julez! :)
I hope you two will have a great evening!
Tell us how it went :)

@jacob: Yeah, I can imagine that. It doesn't sound fun at all.

Well, if you came from being scared of doing anything and went straight to overworking yourself, I guess you just overshot the ideal state somewhat and need to find the right balance. I'm sure you'll manage to, at some point.

Yeah, my current challenge is learning to let go and trust other people to do things. Like sending interns to cover events after I've trained them up. I know full well I've trained them up but I still get very worried that they won't deliver XD Like one of them was supposed to go to an event last night, and she hasn't said anything about whether she went or not, so I'm anxious.... eeeek just trying to be chill and let her message me with the images instead of hassling her XD
