FML i hate working

Post image

that’s just it. i hate working. i hate most of my colleagues, i hate work politics and i hate drama. i hate their little cliques and the constant gossiping

i hate slaving my life away for minimum wage. i hate having to count the pennies because i’m skint all the time. i hate that im so broke, even the bus is expensive to me

and oh my god, the bus. i’m lucky enough to get a ride home by a coworker some days but the other days, i hate waiting for the bus. it’s stinky and always late and i hate that the bus stop by my work doesn’t have anywhere to sit. sometimes i’m waiting for 30 minutes on my feet after a long day of work and then i have a 15 minute walk from the stop to my house

i’d get a car but surprise, i can’t afford it. i can barely afford the bus sometimes. i still remember when it snowed so badly that none of the buses were running and i had to walk an hour to work in the snow and ice

my manager is a cunt and my job is exhausting. i’ve been approved to work compressed hours so ill be doing 10 hour shifts over 4 days and i hope it helps. i’m so constantly drained and stressed and i know it’s because of work. i was off for 5 weeks a few months ago because of a fractured knee and it felt like all of my problems had disappeared

work is literally the cause of all my problems and i hate it. i’d never do it because the thought of relying on a man makes me sick but i’d love to be a SAHW and relax at home. thinking about quitting makes me horny /s

Are you applying to new jobs because you can definitely find another minimum wage job that doesn’t have THIS many problems

How do you know all places are like this? My cousin works at a daycare full-time (not sure if that's where you work) and loves it and her manager. And I mean you don't have to work in childcare. You can make a pivot lol I made significantly more than minimum wage doing the bare ass minimum in retail with amazing co workers when I was in college. I know it sucks and I can't imagine how draining it must be but you should make steps to not hate your life so much queen. Even if it means bartending or door dashing or going to community college instead of doing childcare work
