"In Essence" Part 2

Wednesday employee falls over and goes into anxiety attacks, work load overwhelms her. Leaving her in tears and thoughts of "I'm just not going to come in anymore".

Co-worker talks to management because employee can't speak without a stutter at this point. "If you don't do something employee will leave, then we're screwed."

Thursday employee arrives a little disheveled and slightly twitching from yesterday. Finds that the 'stressors' have started doing the second job that she was and has been expected to do for about 3 weeks and has 2 more to go. Employee is relieved. But is thrown guilt trips by the person helping and everything is 'my fault'. Employee wishes she never got out of bed. The younger 'stressor' befriends employee. She understands what employee is going through and kindly says that if it ever got that bad to just ask for help. Employee is relieved for a short time only because she has asked for help to no avail. The day goes by pretty easily with a lot getting accomplished because everyone is helping to get caught up. Empolyee takes a hot bath and crashes at 9:30 out of exhaustion.

Friday employee arrives to face the last day of the horrendous week Comically laughing at the Righteous Brothers 'You've lost that loving feeling', only because it's a Friday otherwise she would've turned it off.

Employee arrives to find that she has help again today. However the stressors are leaving for meetings around noon and all chaos breaks out amongst the stressors arguing and customers being annoying. Everything calms down when the oldest stressor leaves the shop. And then all is quiet when the other stressor leaves as well. Employee fixes the computer problems with ease as the stressors aren't there to aggravate the computers further with their non-patient ways of working with computers. Everything is running smoothly .....Until! The older stressor walks into the shop and like a whirlwind creates chaos everywhere in an instant! Employee who was using the Mac to send an image to the printer is told that the older stressor has unplugged the computer!!!!!! Employee stands up horrified! And shouts! Runs to the computer room to find the poor computer that HAD been working dejectedly without life. The image starts printing and is ruined. Older stressor apologizes saying that 'the tech' had told her to do that. Employee explains that whe knows what she is doing and had the mad running and that older stressor should've checked to see if it was working before unplugging it! Employee runs from the room only to pull out all her hair (all right just pull on her hair) waving her arms above her head exclaiming "Why do I even try!" After this old stressor quits telling employee what needs to be done next, maybe she actually figured out that Employee knows what she is doing and that she (old stressor) should just do what Employee asks of her. The day runs smoothly after that, employee is able to finish her work for the day only to glance at Monday's board only to feel faint after seeing that next week looks as bad as this one.

Employee comes home watches the simpsons and the new premiers of the WB shows and quietly falls asleep on the couch.
