hi there! it's been a while since ive written on one of these apps before, so pls forgive me for the poor writing and the run-on sentences! so ive been working at this gas station for almost a year (one year anniversary coming up in about two weeks!) and ive been working graveyard shifts for about 7 months due to a coworker leaving the store (which i guess i understand now.) i know it's normal to be drained after these shifts, but i feel like ive been getting overly exhausted recently and ive been staying in bed a lot more than what i think is normal or usual for me. ive also been working on my resume after a particularly rough shift that left me feeling a lot more stressed than it usually does! i also recently reconnected with a friend after not talking to her for 3 months, which i believe is a consequence from these graveyard shifts... but anyway. do you guys think i should talk to my doctor about this? the exhaustion, i mean. because ive had some things this week that i needed to do and i just kept pushing it off because i was so tired and literally slept all the time, and also i think my sleep schedule is literally screwed. ive also been really snappy lately, and i dont like being that way towards my mom, but im not sure if she really understands just how tired i am after these shifts. i forgot to mention that i kinda live in like a small town and a lot of jobs are more so in the food service, which i'm not really trying to get into, than in retail, so it's kinda hard for me to just try to get out of this job and into another one. im also trying to learn to drive so that way i can find better job opportunities, and i have my permit now! (sorry if that last sentence didnt make sense, i just wanted to add another reason as to why i cant exactly leave this job, but i also wanted to add a little something good at the end of it.) anywho, thank u so much for taking the time to read this lengthy post! maybe i'll write again soon <3
