NO Pressure at Tim Hortons

Right? This job is pressure. Which is good.

It keeps my mind very active. It drains me mentally. The fast pace drains me physically. At the end of the day I feel good just because I lived through it.

I tell myself and others tell me, it will get better. Actually, it is getting better. BUT, I feel they are testing even more. How much pressure can one handle? The day consists of being told of all the things I did wrong. Some of the things, I believe, I did right? Who knows, I'm not going to question. Just keep trying my best.

Up side of this is, I think I'm losing weight. The stress and pressure is taking it toll. Sure, we get free donuts, muffins, coffee and tea, All other items are at a 30% discount. In an 8 hour shift we get two 15 minute breaks. Plus, a 5 minute break just before quitting time? Maybe some, can consume a lot of food in 15 minutes. I find, by the time I make, (you have to make your own sandwich) and pay for my sandwich and eat it, break is over.

Many people join health clubs to lose weight. Not me, I just need a job. My self-inflictive insecurity and lack of confidence will do the trick for me. AND, I get paid to do this.
