I HATE MY JOB.
My week goes as follows:
Wake Up (to an alarm)
Let Out the Dog
Take a Shower & Get Dressed
Go To Work
Be Miserable
Go Home
Watch Some TV or Read
Go to Bed
Repeat
I hate it. I can't do the same thing every day. I need to be able to work different shifts. Different DAYS. I absolutely HATE having the weekends off. I prefer having days off during the week when the rest of the world is working.
I also hate doing the same thing for 40+ hours a week. Stupid Job also has MANDATORY overtime. WHO THE HELL WANTS TO BE THERE FOR MORE THAN 40 HOURS A WEEK? not me. I don't care. Id rather be poor. Ive had to work the last 3 Saturdays which makes my weekends even shorter.
My 90 day review is coming up next week (5/10). This is when they decide if they will keep you and you have to join the union (do call center people really need a f'n union? preeetty sure they don't.....if you saw the asses of some of the people working there you DEFINITELY would NOT think they were overworked) OR they let you go. My secret hope (not so secret since I tell anyone who will listen) is that they decide I've missed too much time ("We really frown upon ANY unpaid time in your first 90 days" -sorry i missed 3.5 days...it was flu season and its not like i have health insurance to go to the doctor) and let me go.
Anyway, my life is misery but there are no jobs out there for me try to get (well there might be but I'm so grouchy when I get home the last thing I want to do is apply for jobs).
OH. And I almost forgot to mention. I have NOT been able to watch all the movies I usually do thanks to this whole 'working' thing. My netflix list is OVERFLOWING and I barely rent anything from Hollywood Video anymore. MY DAD has watched more of the movies that I've rented lately than I have. Ridiculous.

poor gill. maybe you should be in retail! you can choose your hours and it would not be exactly the same every day.
What is your job? It definitely sounds like a bad match. I have the same daily grind (all work and very little play), but the fact that I like my job at least 75% of the time makes it a lot easier. If you want to email me offline, I can provide some free career counseling since that's what I do for a living! Hang in there!
