Yet another bad dayWell, took friday off, told the boss I was sick, no big deal, thought maybe if I had a nice long weekend I'd help me out a little, seems like its made me hate this place even more. I had an awesome weekend, did a bunch of stuff I normally don't do, had a lot of fun, but here it is Monday and I hate this goddamn place more then anything. It's not the customers I'm mad at, It's myself, I keep wondering why I used to love this job, I used to come here and love dealing with people, then after about a half a year I started to get mad at a select few people, then after a while I started to hate more and more, now there's only a select few I actually don't mind talking to and fixing their problems. It's not the customer, its not my boss, its not my job, its me. I need a way out of this thinking, I've gone so far into this way of thinking I can't even see myself being successful in anything else, I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, I feel damned to this job and other shity jobs like Wal-Mart and other low end paying jobs, I know I have the potential to become very successful but this place has ruined it, at least temporally. The one thing I know is that I'll never stop trying, I'll hold in there till the day I die, doesn't matter how long it takes, how much I want to quit, I will get out of this slum, I will achieve my goals. It's just a question on how long it takes, but that doesn't matter, It'll happen. Your last three sentences hit the nail on the head. I feel the EXACT same way about my job. Matter of fact, I'm looking into Wal-Mart type jobs...anything to get out of the environment that I'm in now. Seriously. I feel the exact same way as you two. You know that you're supposed to be more, but you're stuck in these bullshit, butt-fucking jobs that you can't get out of. My boss feels like he can talk to me however he feels like it, and dump whatever bullshit on my desk that he feels like while he surfs the internet, and when I say something he says "I'm paying you, aren't I? Just do what I say." He ACTUALLY says that! He has this complex where he feels that I'm challenging him when I ask questions about why things are done certain ways (that's just me wanting to learn more!!!) There's another guy that works here...he handles ALL of our cases. When he wants to take a day off (he works weekends too) my pissy-ass boss says "You can't do that. You have to work on these cases." When my co-worker complains, my boss says the same thing, "I'm paying you, aren't I? What's your problem?" He can get so verbally abusive. He thinks that because he got a couple of steady clients that he's the shit now. That he can say or do whatever. I don't appreciate the way he talks to me, or the way he makes me feel. I know I'm destinied for more than this. I hate people like that. People who feel that they can say or do whatever the fuck they feel. He doesn't give us hardly any respect. You can't have a normal conversation with him because he has an inferiority complex or whatever the fuck. He has his own business and I can CONFIDENTLY tell you that his business wouldn't be anywhere CLOSE to the success it's had this year without my co-worker and me. He's been in business for 5 years, and this year has been his BEST YEAR! Why? Because my co-worker came in Feburary and I came in April and reorganized so much of his bullshit. My boss is a lazy bastard. I hear him on the phone talking about how busy he is and how much work he does and how he works 7 days a week. He works that often because he's the biggest mismanager of time and resources I've EVER seen! How the FUCK can you go out for lunch EVERY SINGLE DAY FOR TWO TO THREE HOURS and expect to get work done? How can you plan a family reunion in the middle of the workday, then get pissed when you finally have to return phone calls close to the end of the day and people already went home or don't want to talk until the next day? He hates updating clients on cases that they're spending thousands of dollars on because it's "too time consuming." What BULLSHIT! So he dumps that bullshit on my desk. Mind you, I didn't work on the case!!! So how the FUCK can I answer their questions? Oh-and when he has questions for the client while I'm on the phone with them, you know what he does? He writes the questions on STICKY PADS and sticks them to my desk! Why the FUCK you don't just pick up the phone and ask your own fucking questions! Leave me out of it! When the client asks me about more information, I don't know what the hell to say. You know what I do? Put the person on hold and ask my boss, who's in the very next room. My own boss won't update his own clients, but hounds them to get their money. He's such a prick. He's the WORST manager and boss I've ever known!!! I know I'm destined for more. I know I don't need to be here. I'm here because I just moved to this state and needed a job after my unemployment ran out. I didn't think I'd be here in November but FUCK here I am. So I have to do something to get out of here. But God knows I don't want to go back to corporate jobs. I HATE corporate jobs. I can't wear my hair the way I want, I can't be myself. I have to play those fucking office politics games and shit. I just want to work at a job I enjoy and go the fuck home!!! So I'm working on my new CD so I can be a musician or singer. I do want the music to work out, although there's a shitload of asskissers and asskickers there too...but at least I'm doing something I LOVE!!! Point is, I NEED to get out of this job. I find myself playing online games and halfway falling asleep throughout the day. You know what I did all day yesterday? Watch stickman animations on stickpage.com. All fucking day. I had some work to do, but this clerical bullshit is suck a fucking joke. I didn't go to school for this. My last job was bullshit too...stayed there for 3 1/2 years before the layoff, which I saw coming for 10 whole months! The job before that was cool, though, and the job before that. But the past 4 1/2 years of my worklife has been a waste. It's time for all of us to sieze life and take it back from these shitpie eating fuckface rats. TAKE YOUR LIFE BACK!!! That last comment isn't something coming from someone who is irrated at work, it comes from someone who absoulutly hates his work and his boss. I feel the same way. I think we all do, why else would we be posting on this fourm? I don't think life is ment to be lived inside a cubicle, in an office building, or doing something you hate, it's really not, and living like this is almost a sin. I think if we just hold in there and keep looking forward we can get past all of this. A book that's helping me latly is The seven habits of highly effictive people, really good book, check it out sometime if you havn't already.

We're not supposed to live our lives in these cubbyholes with artificial lighting and artificial co-workers and butt-fucking bosses. And you're right again when you say I hate my boss. I do like parts of my job because it's in an industry I've never worked in, but [1] I hate my boss, and [2] it is a JOB and not a career. He's such an uncle fucker. Have you ever seen the "South Park" movie? Remember the "Terrance & Phillip" movie? The song "Shut Your Fucking Face, Uncle Fucker." I actually play this song in my head while that cocksucker is talking to me. I hum it sometimes once he walks away. It makes me laugh! I implore everyone to learn that song and Ludacris's song "Blow It Out Your Ass!" from the Chicken and Beer CD. These two songs get me through a TON of trying days!!! Tristan-I've heard of that book. Considered picking it up. Does it really help? I found now that saing Yet Mang to my boss in sweet, melodic tones helps very well too (Yet mang is fuck you in Thai). Life also should not be lived in a restaurant that has roaches in the kitchen, pulling muscles in your back carrying huge-ass trays out to fat-ass people who talk to you in that "I have a command, serving wench" tone of voice and then leave three dollars for you on the table that you grab and stuff in your wallet like a homeless guy finding a quarter on the street. Then you go back to the kitchen where your manager has one more thing to pick at you about, like why is there a stain on your apron or why can't you sell more appetizers or why can't you walk someone else's food out to the dining room? Meanwhile, your best efforts and the tables that absolutely love you go unnoticed. I went in to work with a killer stomachache yesterday. Then I realized the pattern - every day that I have to work, I develop a headache or stomachache approximately two hours before I leave the house. I'm going to single-handedly drain our first-aid kit of all its generic aspirin and pepto-bismol. It's not a coincidence. I can't stand my job anymore. I'm too smart for it and have too many talents that don't involve serving food. Unfortunately, it's tough finding a job in my field and even tougher finding a job NOT in my field where I make $10-$12 an hour or anything close, AND get health insurance. Jet's song "Cold Hard Bitch" is what gets me through....that and "Float On" by Modest Mouse. Not a Kelly Clarkson fan, but I was scrubbing cocktail sauce off a table yesterday and they were playing her new single over the speakers....it made me laugh. "Make a wish, take a chance....and break awaaaay...." Love that uncle fucker song "shut your fucking face uncle fucker" I like the seven habits book. In it he talks about how we decide to hate our work or whatever in life and we make the decision to be angry, sad, even happy, at first I thought he was crazy, I said to myself, is he serious? I'm making myself pissed off? no way, that could never be, then after about a week of thinking about it I found out how true it is. We as humans have the ability to choose what we do, what we want, what we think, and we have the ability to let other people choose for us, and that is what most of us seem to be doing, we're letting our bosses, our co-workers, and the people we serve choose for us. profound book, I could go into it for hours but no one likes to read huge replys. Anyways, check it out, I think the book only cost like 15-20 dollars or something, got nothing to lose but a couple hours reading it. -Tristan |
