Mr. Cranky Pants

I am getting sick and I am very cranky.

You know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and your throat is scratchy and it feels like you drank a glass of milk and it's just hanging out in the back of your throat - that is how I felt when I got up this morning. It was my day off but because I am such a great employee I went in to help out for a few hours because the shit is still stuck to the fan and it's spraying all over the place.

Truly, working for an airline and trying to recover after a blizzard is more difficult than I ever imagined. I miss the days when I was just on the airplane, flying around, stuck in hotels during the storm, and making double pay just because the airline wants to get people to come to work.

My life now is so much different. I want to have fun and just enjoy life but ever since my promotion I am serious, never laugh, and want to do nothing but sleep. I may be depressed because of this position at work. 

I took some Nyquil and I am going to go to bed early. I sent Matt to Panera to get me a soup bread bowl and then I am going to count sheep until 4a.m. when I have to get up and go back to work. I only worked 4 hours today but it felt like 12. I can't understand the work ethic people have anymore. I had one of my employees yelling at me on the phone. I would never yell at my boss and be disrespectful no matter how mad I was. Sure I get pissed at my boss sometimes but I make sure I am always professional because at least I know when I am calm and cool - I am in control. 

I have started losing faith in the Flight Attendants I work with. They are lazy, unprofessional, and they have this entitlement that the airline should revolve around them. There are so many people without jobs and I have to work with people that don't even want to come to work. How is that even possible? They complain and cry that they have to fly, I know that is the craziest thing ever to expect from a Flight Attendant, but I wonder if they would cry if they lost their job? Maybe they hate their job but don't want to leave because they need the money?  I am just rambling so I am going to go to bed and get some sleep. 

Well after I eat my soup.
