I'm borderline with an anxiety disorder... I have never been able to keep a job for more then a year. I always feel like everyone hates me and when it hits the one year mark I can't do it anymore... I would get so uncomfortable or bored (I hate routine) with work that I would actually come up with lies like "I"m getting my tonsils removed" so I could take weeks off from work. That still wasn't enough sometimes so I would either quit and I sabotage myself in some way so I would get fired.
I started working from home where I am basically my own boss... I was having issues and didn't work for the past 5 days... but you know what? It didn't matter because I don't have a boss telling me what to do. I love that I am now able to to do this... although I still don't like my job very much... I can take a break from it without worrying about getting fired if I feel the need to do so.
Why is it exactly that you can't keep a job? What kinds of things do you do that keep getting you fired?
