My employer was bought by a new company a year ago. Our store's hours have been drastically cut. My manager said that our hours were cut by a hundred hours or so! I am down to eight hours. I suspect that my manager will call me sometimes and ask me to come in outside of that day because he can't run a store on that little of hours. I don't know what to do.
Options: Get different job. What about health insurance? I rather like talking to T and like the drug from Pdoc. I want to continue my relationship with T. But, she is EXPENSIVE!
Option two: get second job and work two jobs until insurance drops me due to the lack of full-time hours. Since I am going to school twice a week, that would leave me with one day for the current employer and three days for the second one. I hate new jobs due to "Oh, God-when-are-they-going-to-fire-me land." I worry a lot when I start a new job. I start my addiction counseling practicum in the fall. I can't live in "Oh God when are they going to fire me land" and start practicum in the fall. I would probably end up in "Oh, God why can't I get my mind to shut up so I can go to bed land."
Option three: Stay with my current employeer and spend down savings. If I do this one, I will end up with "I'm unemployable loser" thinking.

I don't know what to do, whine. I hate my stupid life sometimes. PS. My cat that has diabetes now needs another stupid medication. My cat is going take more medication than I do. (I only take one anti-depressant). I took money out of savings to buy groceries. I will need to take money out again to pay the rent.
