Dear you,

Stop playing the victim.
It's boring and not winning you any friends.

Yours truly,
You.

Dear FF managers

Make him the god damn lead already, whatever that is or whatever it entails.

Do it, do it now or I will kick your ass so hard you’ll have to unbutton your collar to s**t

The only reason I'm so pressed is because in a month we're going to HAVE to have one because of new systems we're getting, and my managers have considered me, but all of my coworkers argue and miscommunicate so much and sometimes do whatever they want, so apparently that means I can't be the lead yet... ALL ISSUES WE HAVE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE AN OFFICIAL LEAD. :lol:

I don't even necessarily WANT to be it, but I already do everything and am the only one all of them listen to, and they'd listen so much more if we had someone designated for people to communicate with and follow directions from. Another coworker also does the same s**t I do, but doesn't speak English well enough I guess to be the lead.

Does sound like they are giving you the runaround tbh, maybe it's a test? Maybe they think you can stop all the argu,ments and not bother getting a lead.?

Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feel me?

Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?

Hey you, don't help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight

Hey you out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone
Would you touch me?

Hey you with your ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out
Would you touch me?

Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home

But it was only fantasy
The wall was too high
As you can see
No matter how he tried
He could not break free
And the worms ate into his brain

Hey you, out there on the road
Always doing what you're told
Can you help me?

Hey you, out there beyond the wall
Breaking bottles in the hall
Can you help me?

Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby
Picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window
Wearing the face that she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Father McKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working
Darning his socks in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care?

All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?

Ah, look at all the lonely people!
Ah, look at all the lonely people!

Eleanor Rigby
Died in the church and was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people!)
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people (Ah, look at all the lonely people!)
Where do they all belong?

I've actually kept my coworkers calm the past few days and really kept things organized + communicated with other departments well, so I'm hoping they finally just make me the lead so it can stop being an issue, and I can get trained for what I need to do w/ the new systems sooner rather than later.

I think...

This whole time...

I love you all.

Enough to stay. Enough to live. Enough to change. Enough to try and cling even if so futile and silly.

More than enough to take charge and be responsible.
No matter the basis, I'm deep into it.

And much more than enough to be so willing...
You guys are the reason -- yet you all do not know.

You all do not know -- likely never knew, how dark I've been through.

You think I have the light, but that's because of you all.

I wish I could say how grateful I'm for all those years.

And you all never knew. Never truly knew that my worst years of my life...

.. Was the times that I had found you all.

You are all the reason why I would never regret those years.

Perhaps you are all the reason why I took that leap of faith.

...

I think I know now -- what I truly regret, what I truly missed...

I regret trying to cut it off, in favor of trying to live my life -- not knowing that you guys are the reason why I ever did.

I tried to be independent.
Tried to do it alone. Tried to have the idea of 'life' that is outside you all, away from you all.

My regret is to disconnect with you all.

I should've been with you all.
Longer, kept in touch, even if I couldn't play with you all...

I want to be back to you -- to your world, with you guys.

I thought I'd outgrow you.
I thought I'd forget you.

I thought you all will too, outgrow and forget me.
And it turns out that all along, that none of that is true.

I could care less now, if I were the fool for feeling so attached, for seemingly so dependent.

But that's just the point, wasn't?

I get where you're coming from but seriously, that was really harsh and I don't know how much longer I can deal with these games. If you meant it for N then you should have spoken to her privately. It's hard for us all being on the receiving end with no options, but we keep trying. In contrast you have the power to take what you need and we respect that, but no one deserves to be gaslit or thrown head-first into an emotional tumble dryer. You should know how hard it is for us, because of your own experiences. You aren't the only one suffering here.

I've tried the best I can but it's starting to be gruelling. Please don't just use us or R and T as pawns when you have a bad day. We're all worth so much more than that, and you know it. No you don't owe us anything, but a second of gratitude or humility would go a long way.

Also, please don't forget you can hold some too. Last I checked, the river flowed both ways.

What’s going on? What did I do?
