I love my paycheck... I hate my job... I dread getting out of bed and coming to work EVERY SINGLE day... I start dreading it as soon as the night has come and I remember that I have to get up and do it again the next morning. The weekends are worse... I wake up on Sunday already dreading Monday morning.
My job is not extremely difficult by any means. That’s not my issue. I just do not enjoy what I do. I work with very “interesting” people who are not people I would probably ever choose to associate with outside of work, from the Jewish owners to the four menopausal women in my office. Our company has a total of 19 employees, most of which despise working here but all stick around for the end of the year bonuses that are extremely generous. They tend to make it even harder to come to work every day.
I am 27 years old. I have been working in this industry for 9 years now. I never really chose this field as my career, it just kind of happened for me. I moved out of my mother’s house over 10 years ago and finished high school living on my own. This obviously meant that there was no going to college for me, at least not at that time. So I took a job stocking orders in a warehouse of a contract pharmaceutical company. I moved up very quickly and learned a lot of new and interesting things. But it was never something I wanted to do forever. However I could not afford to go to school for what I wanted to do and my companies would never pay for it because it had nothing to do with the field. A couple years ago I tried to leave the industry and start over in a couple different areas, but nobody would hire me due to the amount of money I make in this industry. They all said that they couldn’t do it because they figured I would end going back to this industry because of the salary difference and they didn’t want to waste time training me. Understandable, but at the same time WTF???
I would love to find something working from home so I could also complete some online or night classes in fashion design. Does anyone know of any work from home jobs where you actually make some decent money? I would certainly appreciate any and everyone's feedback...
