blackicebobaSo. . .work was. . .fine. Like nothing really happened except I kept waffling on if I wanted to place a delivery order for groceries when I got off work or just like. . .get my groceries when I got off work and take a lyft.
Actually, I wasn't even waffling on that I had planned on just doing an online order and having it delivered.
But my coworker talked me in to buying groceries IN THE STORE and taking a lyft home, because as she pointed out, the sales ad changes tomorrow and the stuff I was buying was on sale. It wouldn't be by tomorrow so if the order didn't arrive I would pay more than I needed to.
So I got all the cat supplies, got myself stocked for the week, paid for the order. Went to order a lyft and my card declines.
I tried four different times and each time I tried it declined and when I tried to access my account online, their service is down. It will take two or three days for it to get back up.
So like. . .I'm trying to figure out what to do cause I CAN'T get this cart load of groceries home and I was like "well, maybe I can return the stuff." And coworker who talked me into this was like "You're not gonna return it. Go ask one of the girls on desk to run you home. or I can do it if one of them wants to come down here and take over, you're not leaving your groceries behind. Somebody needs to step up." So I went and asked the girl on desk if she could give me a ride and like. . .she was willing to do it but she was concerned about like her car's tags are currently non-existent so she sort of bullied another coworker into doing it.
Which, as everyone pointed out, everyone does that for each other all the time. People will clock out to run someone home if something's happening and they can't get themselves home.
But I still felt immensely guilty. The coworker who got volunteered brought me home and I felt AWFUL the whole time. Especially in trying to EXPLAIN "I have money. But the bank's service is down." Like I can't even get my rent payment to go through. Hopefully it's fixed in a few days.
But omg that's so fucking stressful. And embarrassing cause it looks like. . .hey you overspent instead of HEY your bank is trash.
Also having money in my account and not being able to access it is crap oml.
Anyway. At least the boi and I have food now. I forgot to grab a couple of things so they'll have to wait till later but it's nothing I need right away.
BLEEH.
And I still have two more days of work. Gonna eat some food and try to work on a fic. I don't have to to be to work until noon again tomorrow so. . .
EDIT: I got the issue with the card sorted but I still need to contact the company my rent payment goes through and get THEM to update my info. I've sent an email so that's all I can do until they respond.
Just in time to have to start getting ready for work.
