Hello Everyone
I thought I'd see if I'm the only one who isn't into their work (lately?) I've got a job that allows me the privilege to work from home. While this is great as a parent it's not so great for BP me. Im able to get my work done, lack of responsibility isn't my issue but more of the extreme boredom of my day to day-in the house, no other people contact that I believe is a major trigger. I've tried to explain to my boyfriend as I watch him leave out the door (lucky) and he reminds me my salary and benefits need to be considered again and again...BOO!! There are days like today I wanna run away and never look back. It's sad, I feel guilty as so many are not working. But this is how I feel sad, bored and frustrated. Can anyone relate? |

I can understand. Are you making a solid effort to get out with some other people when you are not working? You said you are a mother..can you take the kids to a sport or library time, or something appropriate for their age.?
I think if you able to work from home and have a decent salary with benefits, you are indeed fortunate.

With deep respect, I will point out that people who work outside of their homes also have times they feel sad, bored and frustrated with their jobs and their surroundings. Having said that, I am sorry to hear you are feeling that way. It's not surprising you are feeling that way given how isolated you are. I would be very unhappy too if it were just me all the time. Is there any way to make some people contact part of your daily routine, like taking a 15 minute walk at lunch time to get outside, get some sunshine and soak in the surroundings, go grab a coffee or something, have a chat with a neighbour or barista? It's good to get online here too

I like to move forward.... this job is just a day to day grind... u are responsible for the material you are dealing with.. which one sheet or bar can literally be worth 100,000 u.s. Little Stressful On That Note But You Get Used To it over the years. .. i'd personally like to find a less stressful job.. however this.job pays extremely well... kind of job you don't lose.. you can write your own check and Make anywhere.from 65k to 115k.... so yah can't just drop.the job... great incentives... etc....

omg yesterday all I wanted to do was NOT work. My new job is very repetitive. Computer work and makes my upper back, shoulders, and neck just cramp up. All I wanted to do was "leave". Thank God for Pandora and Big Band music.
