I ended up building a new kitchen wall, as that was easier (and looked less weird) than trying to attach kitchen units to my house where salvador dali must have been in charge.

Apparently I have been paid for 36 days of holiday

How the fuck do I get 36 days holiday pay when I only worked for 5.5 months? Ok, it's 36 days when the amount they are using is divided up by the amount that I'd get from the state, I think. But I used all my holiday before I finished, so how come that is being counted as a benefit - I essentially had two weeks holiday the last month I worked, so that meant I shouldn't have got any holiday pay benefit because it was paid as actual holiday within my last salary.

So either my employer's accountant has fucked up or the Pôle Emploi has fucked up.

Either way, I get no benefits until 7th July.

The wage slips are so complicated that I haven't worked them out yet. And I can't get to see anyone to discuss this until two weeks time (hopefully be able to drive by then) so am basically pretty screwed

Fucking universe and it's bats again - just as everything seems to be going well and yet another things smacks me on the back of the head

Very not impressed with a couple today. I’m obviously a burden. Even though I’ve only used the call button twice for good reason - first because whilst try to get up to try walking or down after the unsuccessful attempt I stabbed my hand with the IV and the second time because I tried walking again and desperately need pain meds.

At least there is one compassionate one on this shift

It's France. The only time it ever ran with anything approaching efficiency, it was occupied by Germany.

Not cruel, but empathy isn't one of her strong points.

Animals, yes, but humans, no.

"I should be getting some money soon. My uncle is really ill"

What a disgusting way to live.
