Ah bummer about the shift. You do get messed around a bit. But as T says, there is prob a lot of switching around at the minute with everywhere on high alert.
Your swim will relax you and help that ankle too. Chill hon, life's too short to be angry. It does us no good to be fuming.

 

[summergurl]

I can't help but be angry. I feel like I've been given the elbow cuz he gets to work with the regs. He said he was needed which I believe but if they needed people why couldnt we both do it?! I do get messed about alot with the specials - from being cancelled to not getting replys so I think unless they get a hold of me I'm not guna bother & just arrange shifts where im not guna get messed about.

Rant over sorry!

Swam 40 lengths. Ankle hurt but that's cuz I can't swim properly & kick my feet instead of doing that froggy thing! Lol

 

[irish molly]

Tan, do others of the specials get messed around as much as you do?? If so, can you all make a request for more timely notice about cancellations. Like you, others have to make arrangements to be available for shifts, so it's not unreasonable to get proper notice.
It is a pity that they don't appreciate the support of people like yourself.
It's good you got the swim in, it might have vented a bit of your energy.
Hope you feel better soon.

Molly i'm not too sure about others - I know there are atleast 2 that are now out of probation so don't have to rely on special seargents now that told me they rarely bothered with the specials for the same reasons. Im sure I mustnt be the only one experiencing this.

Im so worked up over it and theres nothing I can do so I just need to chill out. I cant change it so whats the point in being angry I guess!

Had the banana after my swim, swimming makes me so hungry! WI tomorrow :fingerscrossed:

 

[irish molly]

Good luck for weigh in and a better day tomorrow.

 

[JanD]

Is it safe to come out???

Sorry you're so p'd off Tan. I don't blame you one bit though - I'm hoping you've calmed down a bit in the last few hours. Don't be talking about giving it up! You worked so hard to get in and you love it when you do it - you know you won't be happy if you give up!

Well done on the swim - sorry that ankle's still bugging you though

Best of luck for your WI xx

 

[summergurl]

Nooooooooo Jan never ever would I give it up! I mean give up working with other specials and just stick to arranging shifts with the regulars!! I wouldnt ever give this up, no matter what!

I have calmed down, majority due to the fact that i've arranged a baking evening tomorrow with my friend so I have something to look forward to oh and of course, tomorrow is my last night of work for 5days!!! arty0049:

 

[JanD]

[summergurl]

[JanD]

Sorry to hear you're being messed about by the specials. Why waste such a valuable resource as you and your other specials?

Good luck for weigh in today, bet you've lost again.

You must be good at swimming to do 40 lengths. Well done you. I like swimming just not particularly good at it. My mum and dad went swimming the other night and mum did 72 lengths. She's always been good at swimming and loves it too. She's really keen to keep going too, really glad.

 

[irish molly]

Wow Bev, respect to your Mum. She must be so supple with that amount of swimming. I could never get the hang of it and admire anyone who can swim.

 

[summergurl]
