| I hate my job so much!!! I can't handle the thought of going back on Monday. I can't, I can't I can't ..... I've been on vacation since last week and been looking for a job online. I can't stand the hypocrisy of some of my coworkers or my boss. It stresses me out to the point that I can't sleep at nights!! I don't want to keep complaining and be miserable and still be at the same place in 5 years. I feel bad for complaining because I know that I need to be grateful that I have a job. When you have a boss like mine and some co workers like mine you forget about being grateful. I hope somebody calls me soon for an interview. I also want to change career paths. Maybe doing something animal related. I have no experience, but that is not a problem I'm more than willing to learn. Just wanted to vent !

| I agree ... get the heck out of there! With the job market the way it is, now is actually the perfect time to go back to school. Have you considered vet school or vet tech/assistant programs? Some of the latter are as short as a couple years and depending on the school, classes can be done online so you could work during the day if needed. I've been in the same place as you - the wrong job or environment can suck the life and soul right out of you. The upside is that hopefully this will be a catalyst that will help you discover what your real passion is. Hang in there! |

| Take a deep breathe and remember...people who act ugly are usually very unhappy. Try to keep a positive attitude. And know, it's easier to find a new job when you already have a job. Try taking a walk or exercising during your lunch break...that my help with the stress...or you can try my method for stress...SHOP!!! Good luck...it will get better. |

| It's really bad having a job you can't stand. I worked in collections one time and I HATED it, I dreaded going to work each day. All I did was get cussed out by angry customers for 8 hours straight each day. I really wasn't good at it because I can't be rude to people & demand money from them. I know that sometimes things come up & bills can't be paid, so I was often sympathetic to them. Anyway, I hated the job and I ended up smoking because of it & I was constantly sick and I think it was from the worry/stress of having to go there each day. One day my supervisor pulled me aside and told me that no job is worth making yourself sick over, he had seen it before in other employees and he suggested that I think it over, well I turned in my notice that night & was out of there, luckily I found a new job very shortly after but once I walked out of that door for the last time I felt a huge weight lifted off of me, I stopped the smoking and was a much better person to deal with all the way around. Good luck to you! |

| I feel that way a lot but a lot of times I feel like I am lucky to have a job because of this market (real estate). I would love to quit and be an animal cop or an administrator for a shelter.

| The thing is that I don't hate what I do, I hate the people I work with and that makes it really hard, because it affects everything you do and yes, you do take all those frustrations home sometimes which starts affecting even your personal life. I've been researching about vet tech schools and I think that is my next step. I'm going to submit an application at the vet's office where I take the dogs to. I know the office manager and going to talk to her and tell her straight forward that I want a job there. I hope she has an opening . I wish with all my heart that she hires me
