“Be steady and well-ordered in your life so that you can be fierce and original in your work.”
-Gustave Flaubert
IS YOUR JOB LITERALLY MAKING YOU SICK???
There’s a disease going around affecting millions of people each year. The symptoms may include dreading of Monday mornings and the over anticipation of Friday nights. More severely, these symptoms can also be accompanied by headaches, weight gain, or sometimes depression. While this disease has no specific medical term, most people who experience these symptoms usually share a a few common phrases, including, “I hate my job" or “my job makes me sick!”
Currently one in three workers has at least one symptom of clinical depression, 41 percent say they feel stressed often or very often, and one in five have trouble falling asleep. So besides the fact that you despise your long commute, would rather not speak to half of your co-workers, and are certain that you work with the boss from hell, could your job literally be the cause of some of your mental and physical illnesses? Possibly.
Where in this situation it would probably suit you to just quit, in this economy it doesn't give you this option. Most of the population depend on their current job and salary to pay the majority of their everyday needs and expenses. Thus if quitting would leave you employed and w/o collecting unemployment. What is you alternative you might ask?? Doing your best to make your situation more comfortable until finding else where for employment. With tips from 1stClassLadies you are sure to be on the right path.
WHY ARE YOU UNHAPPY ????
First you want to ask yourself exactly why is it that you unhappy at your current job. What exactly is making you unhappy??? Could it be your boss who maybe the boss from hell. Could it be the fact that you bust you a** to no avail and have received no acknowledgement of your accomplishments. Feeling unappreciated for all your efforts. Didn't receive the promotion that you felt you well deserved and earned. Have drama between relationships with other co workers. The list can go on and on and on and on. Now if your issue is something on the petty list for example issues with a commute or too much work than your issue isn't work it's actually you. Get it together.
CHANGE OF ATTITUDE
Ok, we've heard. Its a no brainer. You do not like your job. However you have no choice but for the moment to hang in there until finding an outlet. To help you find that temporary comfortability change you attitude. Don't wake up with that attitude "damn why i gotta go in to this place, i hate it here." Instead wake up with a refreshed C.R.E.A.M mentality!! (CASH RULES EVERYTHING AROUND ME). This attitude is certain to make your day go by with a little more ease when knowing that your rent, car notes, kids expenses, and luxuries will be paid for. Instead of having the attitude "I cant stand this one, or that one." Come to work with it branded in your mind that "this one, and or that one" DOES NOT AND I REPEAT DOES NOT PAY YOUR BILLS!! NEVER LET ANYONE GET IN THE WAY OF YOU MAKING YOUR MONEY FOR YOU AND YOURS!!
MAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF
Having a moment at work where what's bothering you to begin with is getting to you. Take a little break. Go sit in a quit area to rest your mind, say a prayer, gather your thoughts, WOO SAA, whatever you need to do to get back on track and finish out your day. When having vacation days or personal time from work make the best out of that time leaving all work related issues behind you.
POSITIVE SURROUNDINGS
To help make your office a more positive feeling communicate with the positive people in the work place. Share some laughs or even lunch outings. Have a desk of your own?? Bring in photos of family, loved ones, and/ or friends to give you a daily reminder of peace and happiness. This will help keep your mind at a more positive and peaceful place.
HAVE A PLAN
Most importantly you want to have a plan. All these tips help you to stay sane momentarily until you make that positive transition into another work place. Start by seeking other positions and or transfers. Mail in or email your cover letter and resumes. Go for interviews. Follow these tips at the same time do what you have to do to find that right job for you. Keep a positive attitude that you will get what is coming to you when doing right and you will not fail. It might not happen as quickly as you can run and scream HELP to get out of there but for surely your moment of glory to CHUCK THE DEUCES UP will come!! (LIKE THIS WOMAN TO YOUR LEFT..LOL)
