I have edited some stories in my gallery. There were some stories that I went back and looked at and decided I didn't like them after all, and they felt like dumb ideas. I'm sorry for those of you who liked them, but I have deleted some of them.

Revenge on Leo Part 1 and 2, Chamberlain's and SkekSil's Life Changing Story, were all deleted. Again, sorry for those that liked them.

I need some advice after telling what I have to say. I started out volunteering at my animal shelter job. Volunteered for about 5 months, then I was asked if I wanted a job there. I said yes and have been working there from late September to now. I enjoy my work most of the time but dealing with so many tasks at once on a list that sounds like I have to do everything at once in just three hours is not enough time to do multiple tasks and with no one to back me up. My boss is very picky about how she wants things done.

Sometimes I get so full of tasks that my mind just forgets because some other task took up too much time to do another and I get wore out. I often come to work tired too. Please don't say go to bed earlier. I am a night dweller; I can't help it. Always have been. I love writing at night. It's easier and quieter for me to concentrate. But I deal with worrying about being fired. Do you guys think it would be better if I found another job?

There aren't many animal-type jobs around my little town. Sure, I love being around animals though there are some limits I have on their mischievous ways or too much barking from dogs. I have mild autism and I have sensitive hearing and such. I can be sensitive too when it comes to being criticized. Sure, I try to learn from my mistakes and whenever I try to talk to my boss about something, it seems to just go in one ear and out the other. She has terrible memory loss problems.

I just wish someone younger, and more staff ran the place, not just her. A lot of people don't work for her very long because of how picky she wants us to do our jobs. We know we need to keep the facility clean for the animals, but the animals never get the full kind of attention they require, to play and socialize. We don't have enough volunteers either and by the time we're done, all we want to do is go home rather than give animals attention.

Do any of you have any advice?

I have been mostly on here only through my phone for the past month because my other computer had been scammed by me making a mistake with scammers and they damaged my computer and had to go buy a new one. I had a guy fix it and it only worked for a short while. I've had to get reset up with my new computer. I like it so far. Just gonna take some getting used to.

I'm getting a new cat today, or rather a kitten! It's a rare orange female, with what they call 'Classic' tabby markings. Very special markings. I'm calling her Gizmo. I've always wanted a pet named Gizmo.

She's very calm and serene for a kitten her age, which is probably around ten weeks. Just a guess. Don't know exactly. She does have playful energy sometimes, but by herself is quite like an adult cat: mellow. She doesn't meow a lot, doesn't bite.

She was found as a stray and alone. No mom or siblings. She reminds me so much of Fritzy that I lost four years ago. Fritzy was a male though. I'm getting her from the shelter where I volunteered for the last five and a half months and now I'm working there. I've always wanted a job working with animals in some way, or doing something for them. Best way I could contribute to them this way by cleaning their dishes and spending time with them. But at least I won't have to worry about my kitten being adopting by someone else now.

There are some people who are getting too fake here on DA. They only want posts, comments, or to see how many friends they can get. So let's see who will actually re-post this.
