I hated it. Hated it is much. It's really stressful. I can't even sleep because of it. I cry about it I'm always thinking of it, always. I keep missing out on things. Everything. Things I'd love to do.

I can't quit, my parents won't let me. This the worst decision of my life. I could be babysitting instead, but no. I have to this horrible

I can understand not liking a job. I don't think anyone likes to work. I remember when I was younger it seemed everyone only did things when I had to work. But if you plan it right after you have worked a while you can ask for time off and if you are a good worker they will usually give it to you because they want to keep you. Besides it usually takes money to do things anyways. You probably are not really missing much it just seems that way.

Is it the job itself, or someone at the job? What is the job? Could you babysit 'on the side' to have some good work time?

I lost my job may 5th. I would give anything to have it back! You really don't know what you got until it's gone! Try to focus on what is good about it, even if it is only the check. I used to force myself to do whatever I hated the most about work frequently and master it. Learning to love whatever it was that sucked, including coworkers. This method helped me survive some pretty rotten places in the past. Hang in there!

I'm sorry I know this feeling...'if I took another decision now I'd be doing something that I like, and instead I have to do this'...it's not a nice feeling at all.
But don't worry, it's not forever And I don't think that your parents expect that it is. But probably it's true that they wouldn't agree if you quit the job very soon. How long have you planned to do it? You could say to your parents that you don't like the job very much, but you'll try to finish the period that you had decided. If you didn't plan a period you could plan it now, with your parents. Maybe till you go back to school. And you could say them that you have intention to work again in future, but doing something else, like baby sitting. I think that they'll agree.
I think that it hasn't been a so bad decision, however. At least you have tried. If not you couldn't know if you like this kind of job or not. You have to be proud of yourself for having had the courage to try a new experience.

if i were you i would try to look for other job opportunities while keeping this job for finical security but also know in the back of your head that its temporary. you might hate it less that way. the only way out is to be pro-active. you can do it!

You could hold on to the job and search for another one. Or just quit/take a break for a while and focus on more important things. I quit my job after years of hating it. But even with all the stress, I miss the routine it gave me. Hope it gets better for you.
