Work sucks, I know.

So, I work at a theme park under a particular art company. My boss is a really cool guy and all... until you work under him. I busted my rear for almost a year in management, only to not get a promotion after he decided to play favorites to one of my friends. I'm trying not to hold any bitterness toward her, but at the same time, it's difficult to not do so.

 

Due to these events, I'm having to search for a new job in order to really make ends meet. I'm awfully afraid of what will happen to me when school starts back up and I have to still uphold my $500+ a month in rent, bills, and food, the other half coming from my significant other. In the meantime, however, my current job is keeping me on days I need off, like moving days. Then days that happen annually, once a year, such as my birthday, I've had to work both years in a row. It really sucks. Any other job gave me my special day off, especially because I was hoping to have it for relaxing, instead of being in such a toxic environment.

 

But, alas, I deal.

 

I'm trying to start up my henna/face painting business on the side for some extra cash flow as well. Birthday parties, weddings, what have you. I tell ya, I haven't heard a single "hay" for a paid gig, regardless of the countless times I've given out my contact information with a discounted rate for the parties. I'm hoping that will change, of course, but you never really know in my line of work.

 

Thankfully, somepony might line me up with a Brony convention artist alley spot, so I may be doing some pony face paints and henna tattoos for that! Hopefully, it can land me a few hundred extra bits for my living expenses.

 

Aside from that, I may be out of debt temporarily from my tax refund, which looks handsome, thankfully. Being an adult can be fun at times, but for other days, it's very trying on your happiness and patience. I miss the easy days.

 

I'm still trying to cope with my best friend being hundreds of miles away, too. I feel like a lot of my biggest issues lately are rooted from this feeling of abandonment, though I can't help but feel a bit selfish if I admit that to him.

 

What's a lady to do?
