No I'm not all the way out of the hole but something about fighting something I could actually FIGHT and maybe make an impact made me feel better.
I work in a public facility that MUST have functional elevators. While I was at home last night, someone got stuck in the ONLY public elevator in the building- in the dark- for two hours.
No one called me.
The only way I knew was one of my employees came up after I had been at work a whle and said 'oh did you hear?"
The f*ck?!
I've spent the day crafting eloquent and sternly worded emails to higher ups so to goad them into action. It's been working. I was told that no one could 'reset' the elevator. I told my boss that I would rather ask for forgiveness than permission ... If it had been ME in that elevator, I would have lost my shit and EVERYONE would know there would be hell to pay when I got out... actually, they probably would have wanted to leave me in there.
*sigh* give me a fight I can possibly win and I'm fine. Leave me to fight myself? I'm f*cked.
Of course, then I took my cat to the vet because he's not eating. I'm waiting on blood test results. A fight that I can't fight. I hate feeling impotent. I think more than anything that's why I cut. Not sure if that makes sense to anyone other than me.
