Yep! I cope better when bigger things go wrong and I can involve someone senior, acknowledge my f*ck up, and then it takes the weight off me for a bit. It's the smaller things where I feel I should be able to deal with, that really set me off.Does anyone else get an urge on a daily basis to just yell “I FUCKING QUIT” and leave their job and just live on benefits or something. Honestly I feel like my life would be so much less stressful! Every time I get some sarcastic email or someone asking why I haven’t done something that I blatantly have I want to scream. It’s not big things put it’s just the constant nit picking I can’t deal with.
I wish my partner made better money and could support me to go down to part time or even quite altogether and get a less stressful job! I find myself resenting him sometimes which is so bad - I just feel trapped in this position.Yep!

I've planned my exit strategy and have already decided if I really cannot cope any longer I will just quit and live a simple life for a bit. But it would be my last resort as I really need my salaryThe plan still gives me comfort though haha
Sorry you feel like that. It seems like it is the people who you work with who are the problem. Could you apply for jobs in other companies?I wish my partner made better money and could support me to go down to part time or even quite altogether and get a less stressful job!

Nothing I do is good enough. I’ll bust a gut to sort something out, the minute I’m asked to do something I do it, I’m a hard worker and conscientious - I’ll be in tears over trying to get something finished in time and make sure it’s perfect... only to have it completely ignored or they will just focus on the one tiny thing I didn’t do. The reason I didn’t do it is because you asked me to do XYZ by tomorrow and I didn’t have time? I honestly believe they must think I can be everywhere at once sometimes! I don’t feel respected at all, I get people from outside my role telling me what my role is, telling me what I should be doing and basically meddling in my job. Sorry for the rant I’m just tired
I’m always on the look out for other jobs but then scare myself out of it thinking what if a new place is even worse! My job never used to be this bad, a lot of it is due to covid and all the changes that have happened. Unfortunately we are saving for a house so I’d have to give up those savings that have taken me years to accumulate- I could probably do 2/3 months but then I’d need to be working again. I make decent money and I feel like that’s just what a well paid job must be like - constant stressSorry you feel like that. It seems like it is the people who you work with who are the problem.

If it is really having an impact on your mental health then speak to your husband. Do you have savings you can live off for a few months - you could quit and have a break then apply for other jobs? Or really tighten up your finances now, save up for a bit then quit?
Wow are you sure you don’t work at my workB sounds like I have just written this myself! I feel your pain babe xxI can relate to so many of you on this thread.. I dispise my job, not the actual work as its quite rewarding albeit mentally draining but because the company, managers and staff are unbearable.
I can work 60+ hours a week it's tiring as other staff just turn up for the pay and do no work and leave it for the conscientious staff.. they take the piss! When I do get time off its constant emails from managers to our private email account about work and phone calls to ask for last minute cover. You literally can't switch off and not ever think about work.
The back biting and bitchyness(if that's a word!) between staff is off the scale. I would tell them to shove their job in a heartbeat if it wasn't for financial pressures.
I would love to but even with just my husbands wage we will get nothing in the way of benefits so I couldn’t afford too , we have a mortgage and a few large loans that we probably have about another 7 years left , we would literally be living a really shitty life with just his wage aloneDoes anyone else get an urge on a daily basis to just yell “I FUCKING QUIT” and leave their job and just live on benefits or something.
