*GROANS IN LIBRARIES SUDDENLY BEING DESIGNATED ESSENTIAL*
Tuesday, 5 January 2021 10:36 pmHey, so, I am underslept and thus overly emotional, because brute forcing your sleep cycle has Consequences, but apparently university libraries come under a lockdown loophole because we're "educational support" so we have to stay open! I have written two draft emails and a draft of an entirely different post trying to work out my feelings, and the closest I've got is "This is bullshit." Management's Management want us to stay open so that the students can have study spaces, this sounds to me like unnecessarily endangering staff for the sake of access to chairs and wifi, you see why there were two draft emails and no real emails sent.
And I'm fine – spleen has vented like it's the Imposter! I'm just frustrated and there's no where I can put that frustration that can actually make a change. I've asked my managers if I can chat with them tomorrow about this email from their manager and the bullshit it contains! I am considering whether I can revise my second draft email in such a way that I can send it to the university chancellor and not get fired! I have eaten crumpets, because crumpets are delicious! I just... Don't want to resent my job or the customers. And I genuinely feel like that's a hazard right now.
ANYWAY, sleep deprivation and the anxiety disorder to one side, I have a review to finish! And then I have to make decisions about whether I really want to keep the phrase "all of the characters have invisible vulvas, presumably as the distaff counterpart to invisible cocks" in a review for a site archived by the Library of Congress. See you tomorrow, everything is fine, don't let me forget to show off my Story Engine box that arrived in the post today. ♥
