I am starting to think fondly of the idea of smothering myself. I am slightly disturbed by this development.

Would you guys still respect me if I was so bad at my job I got fired and ended up doing something else, or would you think I was a loser? (I know that this is a stupid question because even if you would you can hardly say that, but I want to ask anyway.)

Today was just HORRIBLE. That is all. Also, the 'You Are Mighty' site is gone, and I really could have done with that today.

Well, I for one would. I mean, we talked about this in the car, and regardless of whether you're good at it or not, at the moment your job seems to upset you so much that if it were me, I'd question if it was the right thing to do and the place to be. I think the teaching plan is very good, and you could never be a loser for accepting that things didn't turn out as you thought and then rather than wallow in self-pity, you decide to work onwards from there.

Anyway, tl;dr, you should consider your happiness first and foremost, and if giving up this careerpath and following something else is the way to go, then you should do that ♥ *hugs* I certainly won't think any less of you for it :)

If it doesn't make you happy, i'd say don't do it!

YOU DESERVE LOVE AND KITTENS AND RAINBOWS, BB! You need somewhere where you're HAPPY!!

*hugs*

I am a person who managed to not finish her A Levels 2 years running. I think that you have a job is completely awesome, but if it's going so badly that you don't enjoy it any more then you should do something else. Or go somewhere else to do it :)
(When I have a bad day I rant. You should try it. Surprisingly therapeutic *g*)

You have to do what works for you. If this is not working out, maybe try another place and see if it is the atmosphere, or try another career idea. Sometimes things down't always go the way we plan and we have to change or delay our ideas. Still, go with your interests. If you have a passion for something, follow it as far as you can.

Hi. I know it's been a while since we spoke and you took me off your friends list because it's been so long but I couldn't help replying to this. If you'd rather not hear my opinion that's ok and I'm sorry for commenting out of the blue :)

I think anyone who would respect you less because you weren't good at any given job isn't somebody worth your time. You're so much more then a job, you're a generous, kind person and a joy to talk to. Loosing your job wouldn't change any of that and anyone who would think less of you for it is the looser. You deserve better in life then a job that makes you miserable.

Sorry it took me so long to notice this post O.o

We're a right pair, aren't we? (I hope my post of upset and doom didn't partly inspire yours) *hug*

Seriously, I've come to the decision that it's just not worth it if you're not happy and if you want to do something else, go for it! Did someone else mention you might be thinking of going into teaching? That's my current plan anyway :)

Do something that makes you happy. Life's too short to mess around with all the other crap. You're a great person because you're you, and if they can't see it, it's their loss.

Don't worry, you didn't trigger me - I had a really bad day. And things have been this way for four months and counting, of me being told in every minute detail how much I suck and at what.

The problem is that I genuinely love what I do. I don't want to do anything else. But I think I may be forced to.

I was considering teaching - but I'm just not sure I'd be doing it for the right reasons, and talking with Steve, there's just so much additional work that I'm not sure I'm up for. So it's back to the drawing board.

It's just a fucked up situation all around, unfortunately, and I've lost a stone and a half to the stress.
