If only I had something to chew...

All right... my normal Tuesday stress has just been given a jolt of adrenaline straight to the heart.

I have a eleven days until I'm supposed to leave Barrow. I have been waiting to hear if I'm going to have a job to come back to. It all hangs on my being enrolled in the education program. And I was, until three weeks ago. Then they sent me a perky little note saying that they couldn't enroll me because they were missing some paperwork.

Sooo, I scrambled like a maniac to get all the paperwork and payed $16 to overnight it to Juneau (which means 3 day delivery from Barrow) and they told me they had it, and I said "Good! Please send confirmation of enrollment to my boss so I can keep my job!" and they said "Ok."

Now two weeks later, I get another perky little message saying "I was sick when your papers came so I didn't get them processed and now it's too late. You haven't been enrolled the whole time you were taking classes and now you have to hurry so we can get you enrolled for the summer!"

To which I said "WHATTTT????" and have since worked myself into a sputtering frenzy. This might mean I lose my job. Which will mean I miss my sister's graduation because I have to move and then I have to pray the airline will let me change my ticket without charging me another $700. And other such details. And that's not even mentioning that I have to start job-hunting as soon as I get home.

It would've been easier to just get fired outright. And now it's too late for that too. It's hard to find fireworks for sale this time of year.

Oh I am so sorry...

I hope you can get it all straightened out...

Now that I've calmed down a little, I'm feeling better. We'll see what my boss says.

good

I would be more than happy to have a fit on someone for you :)

What? I don't know what to say! I really hope things work out but... wow, it's like they're messing with your head.

Damn.

It's a mess. But I've ran slobbering to my higher ups and they've been supportive. Hopefully, all my panic will be for nothing. It usually is!

In my limited experience...

... it's better to panic about nothing than be blasé about something.

I'd argue 'bout that... Waste of nerves is no good.
