Help i have a dilemma

jmho

Okay so I’ve been depressed for weeks now. I work from home and i don’t have any friends which takes a toll on a person mentally.

I was on Instagram and saw that this upcoming movie needed extras and i thought “that sounds fun” so i signed up and they picked me

I went to the movie set and had so much fun, my first time legitimately being happy in such a long time. I’d never done anything like it before and i got to be around so many people my age for the first time since i was in college in early 2020 before the pandemic ruined everything.

But i had to ask for two days off of work and because the movie people got back to me so last minute, i asked off very last minute which i knew would be inconvenient but my sisters convinced me that sometimes you have to put yourself first so that’s what i did

My boss had told me it’d be inconvenient because other people asked for those days off too but i kinda pleaded with her because i knew i wouldn’t get another opportunity like this again. PLUS the movie is a musical and it was on my bucket list to be in a musical

I got another email from the movie people asking to come back Tuesday and Wednesday and i REALLY wanna go because i had so much fun and i feel like i NEVER have fun anymore. I don’t work wednesdays but i do work tuesdays and they said it’ll be the same scene so you have to go on both days. And it’s like i wanna ask for the day off but i just asked for two days off at the last minute last week so I’m afraid to do so again

I figured i could bring my computer with me but I’m fearful that there might not be enough down time to get my work done.

I tried to figure out how to get my work applications on my phone and i did it but there’s no actual app you have to use safari and it doesn’t work the way it should

What would you do if you were me? Would you just ask for the day off again and risk pissing off your boss? Would you just not go to the movie set? Would you bring your computer in hopes that you could get work done? And if you couldn’t then what?

My plan right now is to play it by ear

Also i should mention that this is my first full time grown up job. If i was working at like, panera, I’d say f it and ask for the day off. But this is my like “career” job. I work for the news
