Option 5. Suck it up

It took me about 9 weeks to really adapt to my 7-3 day shift at my Dickensian workhouse, most of that was evolving/devolving to 4-6 hours of sleep when in conjunction with clown college from 6 till 10 P.M. At least you'll enjoy some sunrises. I have the same problem when it comes to work performance. I get good reviews, but my company is so fucking tightfisted that it can't bear to pay me more than 15 cents more an hour every 90 days. Add to the fact that I carry the weight of my department on my back 8 hours a day because Deetard doesn't do shit and keeps his job, while the old man never shuts up and smokes like a chimney, leaving the over-productive non-smoker, me to do everything else. I'd like to get into a different department, too, but my shithouse factory doesn't like to move people around or really train anyone to do anything else, so I'm screwed. God knows I'd rather get acid and alkali burns in the phosphating and E-coating departments than melt my brains and liver around that verdamdt paint any longer, but shit happens. You might be luckier in negotiating you way into another department. Basically bullshit your way into any other job, use Wikipedia to learn how different processes or tasks are done if your company has any manufacturing/environmental/logistic departments. If you make it sound like you know stuff, perhaps they can pull a fat-arsed, lifer supervisor off his duff to fill in the rest. I'm going for broke and trying this in the next couple weeks, seeing as my apprenticeship is hanging in the aether as it were. Keep it evil...

Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you're O.K.
Money it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off my stack.
Money it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet
Money it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're
giving none away

"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking
why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and
screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

yeah it means to deal with it. I get up at 5:30 every morning. the first two months before I moved it used to take me an hour and a half to get to work so I was up at 5am and home just before 5pm. I felt like shit, wasn't eating very well, I didn't like to do things on weekends because I was so exhausted and sick but after about 2 or 3 months I started to adapt. I started making sure I was in bed early at least 2 or 3 nights out of 5. On top of that I had a cunt of a supervisor breathing down my neck all day. I thought of so many ways out, going to another department, talking to my manager about it but I just kept my mouth shut and waited. The supervisor is gone now, probably going to jail, now potentially two positions will open up leaving the door open for me to have either an 11:30-8 shift or a make your own hours shift. Even without that work has gone from a total shithole to very tolerable and the pay is decent, it affords me a nice little apartment in a nice part of the city and I can only go up from here. So whats my point? Control what you can control, go to bed earlier, don't sleep when you get home, look for another job on the side, if you're living in a dead man's town with no chance of anything better make a jump and move. Quitting and going back to your old job or asking to switch departments is just going to make you look weak.

I hear you. Been through it all 15 years in the Silicon Pressure cooker 16 hours a day at top speed for 15 years. The prickly sensation you describe started around age 35 after 13 years of this crap. By 37 it had started to turn to chest pains. Now at 39 it has turned to not being able to breathe or swallow and to arms going numb whenever I work hard. Been to lots of docs. No heart problems but they did tell me it's STRESS. You can take it when you're 25, no problem there. Once you approach 40, this will kill you if you let it.

My advice? Don't allow it to continue. Most of all, force yourself to go out and walk every day. Do it in the night if you have to. Walk 1 hour at a brisk pace every single day. It strengthens your heart and it gets rid of stress. Do this every day for 2 months without missing a single day. Just go out and walk 1 hour a day fast rain or shine.

In 2 months you will begin to notice that at work you can handle anything they throw at you with ease. Exercise gets more and more important with age. You have to force yourself to do it. Just go out and do it - every day, 2 months.

Then you will find your metal state is better, you feel better, the tingling and electric current feeling has disappeared and you are ready to take on the day and take on the morons at work!

Lack of exercise is very dangerous. Just go do the walk every day and watch what happens......
