Just venting
Added 2025-03-31 16:12:46 +0000 UTCToday has been overwhelming.
I recently started working at a gym and a temp-to-hire leasing agency, hoping for more flexibility. I began at the gym in December and landed my first assignment at a gorgeous high-rise in February. I was at that building for about a month before they filled all the positions, but the manager liked me so much that she wanted to keep me on as much as possible, which made my schedule a little unpredictable. I was fine with that as long as I had some free time for myself.
Last Wednesday, at the end of my first week away from that building, they asked me to work at another property. This property isn’t as impressive—it’s remote and a little basic—so I wasn’t exactly excited about the idea. But the property manager there likes me too and sees that I’m a self-starter. She even wants me to apply for the open Assistant Property Manager position, which I’m definitely interested in.
I finished the week at that property, including Saturday, and then had to work at the other property on Sunday, which was fine. Monday was supposed to be my day off, but I somehow missed that the gym manager had switched me from closing to opening. I didn’t realize this until I woke up at 8. I was supposed to be at the gym at 5am for my shift—and to top it off, I was also supposed to be at the first building at 9 a.m. The other property’s schedule is Tuesday through Saturday, so now, on what should have been my 6th day working, it looks like I won’t be getting a day off anytime soon. Ugh 😫
