So as some of you know I have been in between jobs and running out of unemployment money. Not to mention I'm getting cabin fever and my bf is feeling overwhelmed my being the sole employed bread winner. So finally after months and months of job searching I finally got hired full time as a dog handler at a dog daycare sat morning. Today was my first day and as implied by the entry title bad news coming up.
I consider myself a pretty strong person of course I'm not perfect but I'm always up for a challenge. However, the one of my few MAJOR enemies is the sun. Although having a tropical nationality unfortunately my vampire blood reigns supreme. I am so pale I've been referred to as "glow in the dark" among other not so funny nicknames. Ever since I was a wee one as soon as the sun hits me I burn be it 5 minutes, not to mention sun stroke, dizziness, nausea etc. you get the point. Anyway, point being it is something I have no control over. Today on the first day of work I was so excited and proud of myself for finally getting back into the workforce yet little did I know all it consisted of was standing in the sun all fucking day with only a petty 20 minute break. I was dying out there n had to do the most heartbreaking thing of turning down the job.
I'm so miserable right now. A consuming feeling of shame is just so overwhelming I feel sick to my stomach (maybe that's just the sun) regardless tho, I thought maybe some of you would understand. Never heard of a vampire who loves a good sun bath unless your Blade lol.
All joking aside tho, **sigh** back to the drawing board...have another interview in the morning for an indoor daycare so wish me the best!
