People on disability, do you ever miss your job?

I'm such a weirdo. I actually miss my job sometimes. I worked at a salad bar. You wouldn't think I'd miss working at a salad bar, but I do! I was physically active, I had a toned upper body from lifting heavy fruit all day (like watermelons, cases of pineapple, cases of oranges, etc.). I just miss that. All I do now is sit on my ***, especially since it's summer and I don't have time to go to the gym. I miss a couple of my coworkers. I was so proud of myself for being able to work through all my MI bull ****, until I couldn't anymore and ultimate bad happened.

Not to mention it was a stressful job. I did the work of four people in eight hours.

But I was there for eleven years!

I'm grateful to be on disability. As long as doctors don't decide to take me off haldol cold turkey, I'm doing a lot better. And now I get to take care of my daughter full time, which is great.

Am I weird to miss my stupid job sometimes?
