Some people work to save money and build a better life for themselves. Me? I work just to get to my next pay cheque.

This is supposed to be my winter break from school, a time to relax, but NO! I decide to take on extra shifts, causing me to work 7 days a week, and durring those slim times that I am not working, I am too tired to do anything, so I am either sleeping, or trying to get my house in order.

Take today for an example. Today alone, I have cleaned my bathroom, did my dishes, swept, mopped and vacuumed, and even did laundry. squeezed in an hour sleep, and still have to shower straighten my hair, do my make up just to be at work for 5pm. Work till 10pm, then come home sleep and back up at 3:45am, to get ready for work again. frustrated frustrated

I know that I should be happy that I even have a job, but it is wearing my thinner then tissue paper. sad yawn asleep

Sorry just complaining. I shall live, I always seem to. Some strange way, not sure how, but I do survive.

We all need to vent some times. I have been out of work since October, had to deal with relatives that have jobs but didn't feel the need to buy my mom anything for Christmas, then thinking I could get away yesterday for some time alone ended up getting a $109 speeding ticket. ARGH!!!! When does it turn around and get better?

On the flip side....I do get to take naps everyday and talk to great people on Mingle!

Ohhh, sad as it is, it is times like this you need to think about how much worse it could be.

You'll get through it, and look back on this fondly....

I've been an unemployed full-time student since last December, before the divorce.

Thanks guy for allowing me to vent, I know it could be far worse, but when do you finally say to yourself enough is enough and just hibernate to get away from it all?

Never, dear. Then life has beaten you.

You know you are stronger than that.

Compare yourself to, say, the people in this picture and count your blessings. There are ALWAYS people worse off.

Sure it could be worse if I lived in a third world country, but I don't. I live in CANADA, the land of opportunity, the place were so many of those people come to, to find refuge. And little do you know that a portion of my cheques go to support two of those families.

So if I feel like I am in a dead end right now like my friend MBD say, then yes I have every right to b1tch once in awhile. Because I know I am doing my part to help those less fortunate, and pay taxes, that help support those people that come to this country to find solitude.

I have to agree with those who say it could be worse. I know what it feels like to be frustrated and not going anywhere in your life. But, if you really want things to change, you have to make them change. Even if it's just something small like taking time to do something you really like doing at least once a week. Or something big like doing whatever you can to get a better job.

Sure...lots of people will say it could be worse...or that someone else has it worse and yes it could, and yes someone probably does have it worse...

But you also need a moment to validate your own frustration and feelings in how your own life is going. People need that... it isn't fair to always hear how it is worse for other people...because really no one but you is living your life or walking in your shoes at this time.

You need to make yourself take a break where ever you can and remember what your goals are and if the path you are traveling is really taking you in that direction. A moment of down time for self reflection is very necessary in times of self doubt or unhappiness.

I hope you are able to make this kind of time for yourself....the sooner the better... flowerforyou

It is like the song by Abba "Money, Money, Money" There is a line in it that says "It's a rich mans world" a line that I have to agree with.


And for those that says it can be worse and it is up to me to change it, what the heck do you think I am doing? I am going to school, but can not go to school with out money, so sadly this is life until I finish school.
