    When I worked at a call center I experienced some of these. I was depressed on sunday, I didn't have good performence, I had little desire to learn new things and I wished I had the janitors job. I'm an operations processor at a bank now and I love it so much more.

      Jason, I think you are prob normal to not like the call center job. I recently had a phone interview with one and said "it sounds like hell" and she didn't disqualify me after that comment. I know I was qualified but my comment should have disqualified me from being hired. I got more and more depressed with the phone interview and just the thought of sitting in a cubicle. I decided to stay unemployed.

    These all apply to me. I am so miserable at my job, and unfortunately because of this, my job is all I think about. It’s a well paying job and the people I work with are very nice, but I just feel my job isn’t a good fit for me. It requires a lot of analytical thinking and is very subjective, and I just cannot handle this. I’m not saying I need a job to be completely easy and stress-free, but I would like something a bit more black and white. I have so much anxiety that I’ll make a mistake, when I didn’t have that at my previous job (that I loved and only left because I applied for my current job that was a higher level in the same company). I’m so scared to quit because I’m scared of what my boyfriend, his family, and my parents will think. Also, I’m not exactly sure what route to take when I leave. I have a couple of ideas, but I’m scared people will just think I’m a constant quitter and will keep giving up. I’m also scared of what my boss will say. I know everything would eventually turn okay (I hope), but right now I’ve been going through this nightmare for nine months.

      The job is not something you have to do your entire life so don't give it that much power over your life. That feeling of torment does pass by so be patient. keep looking and applying and someone will eventually call you for a new job. Hang in there and stay strong..

      Man homelessness is better than giving up.
      You have value JUST AS YOU ARE.
      Let us remember..
      What we hate most can often induce such a rage that we are propelled into action. That's my case anyway. Let that rage bring you into opening yourself up to beliefs that might seem "insane" about what you are capable of.
      For me, it was do or die.
      I began to do what I loved (streaming while making art) and while I am currently in a hiatus due to moving and setup, I will NEVER quit on my personal dreams.
      I let people's opinions about what was possible fuck with my head for way too long. FUCK THEM ALL.
      FUCK EVERY PERSON YOU WORK WITH AND ALL THEIR OPINIONS. Your life is more valuable than that anyone approve or like you, or even believe in you. Open yourself to your deepest fantasies; you'd be surprised what you are capable of when you simply believe and act with the fury of overcoming what once held you down.

    Yes I relate to the prison one. Just being a drone at a desk for 8 hours a day, and not being allowed to chat to anyone, it's like you are supposed to be a machine. Awful. Then you only have a couple of hours to yourself by the time you travel home and get food, it's time for bed again. :(
    I was happier doing part-time and if I ever had to do full-time I thought I would rather have two jobs as there is much more variety and interest.

    This is suuuper accurate. My previous company was great but it got bought out and I had to find a new company, but the one that I got now is just a mess. There's no pressure to quit but I have this feeling that I NEED to find a better job WHILE I have this one so that I won't be unproductive. The problem now is that its hard to find a job that I like, so now I'm stuck at this company doing everything half-assed & actually WANTING to be dismissed.

Am back to my self... And i suggest u to never give up.. Have the passion. Be safe. And try some easy law of attraction techniques.. (if u believe in them) if u dnt believe in the law... Then believe in ur dream.... That will give u the answer... Am telling you bcz am also benefited from this beautiful gift of the universe... All you have to do is stay connected to ur dream...

    I'm glad i found your video .It's very empowering.I'm experiencing all the 10 signs right now. I'm an elementary teacher in a public school for almost two decades. I love teaching children but not the tedious paperwork.I mostly don't enjoy my weekends and I lack time for my family because of so many take-home paperworks needed to be accomplished .I could not forget that one night, i dreamt of working as a janitress for a small company and in that dream I was holding a feather duster, was wiping an office table and I felt a genuine freedom and happiness that moment. Upon waking up, I got sad. That's how frustrated I am to escape from my current job.Thanks for the encouragement you are sharing through this video.I hope one day I could find the right job where my passion really is and could give me the real fulfillment and happiness I'm longing for.Godspeed...

      Hey there. Thanks for watching and sharing your current experience. It seems like you have a really good grasp on the parts of your job that you enjoy and which parts you don't. This is such a great information as you explore what your passions and interests are. If changing careers is something that you really desire, I suggest shifting your thinking from "I hope one day I could find the right job where my passion really is" to "I WILL live my dream career" or something similar. This slight shift in your thinking is everything.

    I got a job working with animals a couple months ago, which is what I've been trying to do since I was in high school. But now that I have it, I've been miserable. I cant tell if it's the job itself or the people I work with. Maybe a mixture of both. We dont relate to each other at all and almost all of them are condescending towards me. I make mistakes yes, especially because I suffer from pretty bad brain fog. But I think I'm starting to get the hang of it now. Even so, I'm constantly on edge because I'm afraid of what they are going to say to me, and afraid of what mistake I'll make next. I'm tired of getting looked at like I'm stupid despite the fact that im trying so hard. I've realized that, my calling may still be with animals but just in a different line of work with them. Unfortunately those are hard to find especially since I haven't finished my bachelor's yet. Looking back at my previous jobs, I was in retail for a few years (despised that and didnt understand how my coworkers were so perky and eager to be there), I've worked at pizza hut, (which I wouldn't say i hated but i definitely didnt enjoy it), and a factory (I cried many days as i stood in my assembly line doing the same exact thing literally all day), and also at a small town gym. Which I actually enjoyed. I got to man the place by myself with no coworkers, clean, sign members up and sit in the office. I had to leave due to COVID and I didnt get enough hours to sustain myself. Which I was actually quite sad about. Now yes, all of these are entry level jobs of course, none of which would be careers, but it just makes me wonder, what kind of career WOULD I enjoy until retirement? I dont like job hopping, I want to be content and happy with whatever career I choose, but I have no vision of what I'd like my life to look like 20 years from now, despite how much time I've spent meditating on it. I feel so stuck and imprisoned in this endless cycle of absolutely hating what I do. Really makes me want to find a rich man and become a trophy wife haha

      I feel you. Im on 11days of working in new place as retail after being jobless for a year because of pandemic. I dont feel belong here eventho the bnefits here are good. I try to get along with the environment but i just dont feel it. It was too overwhelm for me. I DID did mistakes while working, and got scolded. Compare to my old job, the environment was great and i get along with everyone eventho the wages was ehhhh and tiring but i always got motivated to work even some mistakes i did. Im thinking about quiting my new job. About 2 days ago, i almost got the job for my future career and they ask if i can come for 2-3 days of training, but because ive just start working so no luck cuz they want to hire immediately. Im afraid i wont be able to settle down to get better career as im almost 27yo now and yeah i dont like hopping from job to job too :'(
