'Twould be long awaited, were I waiting a long time.

I'm going to be quitting my job soon. I used to love it, but lately, (mostly in the past few weeks, actually) the whole thing's just gone downhill. People are complaining about certain things I do, that they used to compliment me for, they're saying things behind my back, and acting like total jerks to my face. It's been very frustrating, and I've never thought about quitting more than i have since this whole mess started. To be honest, I can't see myself staying much longer than mid-June, and only then, because I can't take a vacation after I give my two-weeks-notice. I'm thinking I'll just quit before I go to Toronto in May, and get a new (and better) job when I get back.

What do I do? I'm a deli clerk. I'm just getting so sick of it now, though. I look around at work, and all I see these days are employees breaking the rules, doing some things wrong, and ignoring other things. I keep hearing about how great Safeway is supposed to be now, how it's supposed to be the best grocery store you can go to, they even changed their catchphrase to "Ingredients for life." Sure, it might look better for the customers, but the employees have gotten much worse. Among each other, and to me expecially, it seems, they all seem bitter and spiteful.

Anyway, I'm sick of working in such a hostile environment, and I'm going to tell my manager on Tuesday that I'm planning on quitting. I won't "officially" quit just yet, but I'll tell her that, if things continue as they are, I'll be leaving. The job is just too tiring these days. Physically, mentally, and emotionally. It eats up days, weeks of my life, and leaves me so little time to be myself. You know, the last time I actually got to sit down and watch a decent anime, was over a week ago, and only one episode. The last time I got to actually put everything down and, like, veg out on it, was... some time ago. Before the beginning of this year, anyway.

All in all, I'm burnt out, and exhausted. I just need a break. From work, from stress, maybe even from myself. Well, at least it won't go on much longer. One month, and I'll be unemployed, and I'll have that break I want.

 

Well I hope things go well for you and that you can find a job where people can treat you like you deserve to be treated. I wis you the best of luck man. Have fun in Toronto!

 

*HUGS!* n_n

Don't worry! You'll be fine and get a new job. Believe me, i've been there, stress can kill you. Pray to God that you can find a job that fits you.

And don't worry, you'll be ok.
