My job was cut due to budget cuts so at the end of June I will be unemployed so building up my sick time is a non issue at the moment.
I didn't tell anyone here what was happening until this late winter and I feel like I made myself look irresponsible (missing work) and hurt my professional image bc I was more concerned with keeping up appearances than telling the truth. What a FOOL I've been.
Having a full time job and trying to be a good Mom is hard enough under good circumstances and I've tried hard to keep up my parenting but I've let my job slip in recent months and I know it.
I'm frazzled about finances as it is and learning today that I will have a much much smaller paycheck next week is sending me off the deep end. I literally live paycheck to paycheck (despite making good money thanks to debt and AH's irresponsible spending that wiped out our savings) so this is going to be a problem.
