haha, *sis but thanks for the support 🙂🥱
Geeze, hopefully you were able to recuperate from that decently enough. I definitely felt what you mean about just being crushed when coming home. I was more or less fine going home up until the moment I plopped on my couch; I just felt so much pressure I couldn't move. I actually ~~want~~ started to cry lol 🥲
Highlight of my day was having the lid pop off a shaken espresso mid-shake during dinner peak. At least the many people observing the diaster of me got a good laugh out of it and had many encouraging affirmations to offer me in these trying times. But for a solid 10 seconds, I had focus and will all my energy into not just straight up fucken exploding. The thing that makes it to the end of this week will just be a shell of what used to be me lol

(yes sis haha sorry i just said bro in a friendly way i hope i didn’t offend you!)

yeah no i felt the same- was fine doing everything g at work but the second I got home it was just…. So bad. and i had many moments (i was working during Easter so imagine how that went :/) where i almost had a panic attack/breakdown on the floor. i also spilled a drink while trying to put the lid on it, and spilled some almond milk as i was shaking it because whoever put it in the fridge didn’t close it properly. and yanno, you don’t really think when you’re trying to get drinks out, so that really broke me out of my trance.

but yeah like i said earlier, i really hope you get a lot of rest and just. don’t mind work for some time. these shifts can be so draining i swear
