I have been shaky at various points of the day all week (usually meal times) and today I finally tested my blood sugar and it was a bit high. I still have to check a doctor to confirm though.

:/ good luck with that. I really hope it's nothing serious. :heart:
Thanks Claudio. My dad and maternal and paternal grandparents have it so there is a high chance that I may have it as well. Still, fingers crossed that it isn't but if it is worry not, I have been conditioning myself for this day for a few years now. My diet may have to change but not too drastically.

It can happen to the best of us (Sergio, CrimsonianKing, me).

I hope you don't. But if you do, we've been known to be a support group. :)
Thanks. At first I thought it was because of hunger but this week it kept persisting even after I ate.

@swag although I have been prepping for it diet-wise..the way my body feels comes as a total shock. I don't know how you handle this feeling. It just feels so off.

So I'm learning that people here seem to be able to get away with anything they want at work with no consequences. One of my coworkers has on multiple occasions refused to do certain tasks, so our supervisor just gives her the option to just go home for the day, which of course she does. And she still works there... so not only does she get to keep her job but she gets "rewarded" by getting to leave early, essentially she threw a tantrum like a child and got her way. And she's in her 30s, which is even more ridiculous.

Of course since she leaves I have to pick up her slack, not to mention there's a girl at my other job who is habitually late or doesn't even show up at all sometimes, yet still works there and I or someone else always has to do double the work when she isn't there. But the real kicker is two of my supervisors who hate each other's guts and keep trying to sabotage each other and make the other one look bad. HR even had to fly in from Florida this week and mediate between the two of them, one of them totally put on a show, came prepared with tissues and burst into tears making the other one look like a huge bully. And these are supposed to be people in positions of power.

I hate people. :sergio: Makes me wonder why I even bother putting in my best effort at work with minimal reward when these other idiots can get away with all this shit. Life at home isn't the best right now either so I'm just fed up.

Hope everything turns out okay for you. :) At least if that's it, you know what it is and how to deal with it.

Good luck, love. I hope that whatever it is gets taken care of.

I'm sorry, Ragazza, those people are very, very frustrating but I do like to think that down the line, people remember the shit they pulled.

Reminds me of my boss. Not the waterworks, but the getting away with anything he wants, i.e. "I've decided it's too nice out today to work, so I'm going home. No one should have to stay here when the day is so nice". Like me, he means.

L, did you change jobs and start working for Zappos? ;)

Man, all that Holacracy crap sounds a lot like this.

Try to find some solace in knowing that it sounds like some of your coworkers could probably never get a job working anywhere else.

What kind of supervisors do you have? Looks like HR dumped all the trash at your workplace. Hopefully things will get better at home soon.
