My work is the pits |
OMG! Can't stand this place! Well, the place is good and the work is
good, its just that the boss is a fuckwit. Pardon my French but god.
The more stressed she becomes with this job, the more she takes it out
on the workers. And when one of us tries to talk to her about it (no
matter which way we approach her), she immediately goes on the
defensive which, in her case, is the offensive. I don't know what her
problem is but she takes any kind of constructive criticism personally
and it really frustrates me. She has a sharp tongue, so to speak, and
she can really make someone feel like crap. She does this every time
someone asks her (no matter how nice we are while asking). Kinda makes
for a non-positive environment. :) An example of this is yesterday I
asked her a question about what I should do with a client who blatantly
broke the rules. First time I told her the whole story she ignores me.
Second time she just sighs out loud and says "I'm in the wrong fucking
job"". Join the club, hunny.

Your job is what you make it. I have worked on a gazillion jobs
in several continents and countries. I loved every one of them.
Until I didn't, then I moved on. The older I get the longer I
seem to keep the jobs I choose. 'cept coffee of course... I
didn't *do* that fully (small inescapable regret).

job blues , me too. I get so depressed,, I can't believe the
things I do to make a buck,,, It feels meaningless to me,, like
everybody I want my life to mean something, I want to feel like I am
contributing something, I feel like a cog,, The kicker is its my
fault,, I just was never emotionally strong enough to take on the
challenge of moving up in my job and making my life better,During my
20's I felt like I was sorrounded by signs of the apocolopyse and
no one saw them but me, it sort of interfered with my job
oppurtunities. Now I am paying the price... I have lost my ideals. I
no longer think I am making a statement about how we are all slaves
to money by being poor. Now I just feel poor and it sucks, I don't
know if its that I have not been brave or that my deppression has
crippled me. I do know that I have got to stop waiting for my fairy
godmother to appear and save me. christ I am not ciderella , this is
not a fairy tale , this is real and I better try to save myself cuz
noboby else will.!! good luck to you,, jill
