I have been having some issues with my job, as posted under the General Forum, lately. Well, yesterday, I was terminated. For not getting permission to miss work due to icy conditions and for not having the grill area properly clean.

I am so depressed now and feel worthless. I was almost there a whole year. That seems to be the longest that I hold down a job and then something happens and I lose it. Before this, I was managing a Dunkin Donuts, my boss took me out for coffee and laid me off.

I am the sole support for my family and have bills coming out my ears. I called and started an unemployment claim immediately, but that takes time if I even get approved. I called for an appt. for food stamps and have been applying online for a few jobs.

Through it all I feel like just crawling under a rock. I am so tired of giving my all to a job and then having it taken away from me. I just can't seem to do anything right long term. Something must be wrong with me. I thought I was doing okay with my meds, so it's not that.

I just want to disappear.
