Lilies… my only weakness.

Lilies… my only weakness.

I only had one day off this week, but the bright side is I got overtime pay to look forward to. 😀 They offered me more overtime for next week but I ended up declining since I’ve been sick. I’m not sure if it’s a bug going around, or the Easter lilies we’ve been selling. They’re so potent that they dry out my throat, make my nose water and burn my eyes. We’ve had people complain about them causing headaches too. In fact it becomes difficult for me to speak, not to mention my lungs start to burn. And when you’re in this type of environment for as much as 9 hours it kinda gets to you after awhile… I’ll have to talk to them tomorrow if this continues, although my hopes aren’t too high as other people have complained in the past.

The solution? Get a doctors note… What a waste of time and resources. It wouldn’t take much effort to move these damn things outside to a ventilated area, but noooo you have to take time out of your life and a doctors life to get some fucking note for why you can’t work…
