I am only 21. I should be living life to the fullest but I can't. I am an assistant manager that tries to hard to keep the employees that used to be my coworkers not just my subordinates happy. In turn I do all their jobs and am stuck feeling like I do everything. Every day I have a feeling the only reason I got the job is so they could fire me. I recently had a miscarriage as well. One of the cashiers at my job is still pregnant and she feels like i hate her because I lost my child and she didn't. I do not hate her. I hate those women that get pregnant and do not give a fuck what they do to their bodies in turn to their unborn child (ie drugs and alcohol). I am very depressed because the only friends I had were my coworkers but now a days I always feel like they are using our friendship as a way to get out of work. They always tell me "your the one who took the job knowing what was going to happen" yes I did but at the same time i know I shouldn't be doing the whole fucking stores job every single day.

I'm 40 with a wife and a 10 years old girl.
I was laid off 2 weeks ago after spending 3 years in a company making just ok salary to get by.
This is the second time I got laid off. I was laid off 3 years prior from another job. It took me 3 months to find my last job. My wife is a demanding woman and not very considerate at all. She works but only makes minimum pay. She really hates her job and wants to quit all the time (she still does). Naturally she turns to me for complaints all the time. That kills our marriage. I found she doesn't love me anymore. We sleep in separate bedrooms (we still do) and sex is pretty much nonexistent. I remember I suffered a very bad case of depression during that 3 months period.
Since that time I have been having a major mid life crisis. I feel insecure and become very conscious that time is running out for me. I achieved nothing in life (compare to my friends) and still hasn't made a mark in the world.
I don't know what went through my head but I somehow got myself a girlfriend on the side about a year ago (from my part-time job) I think it was the thrill of being irresponsible. My gf costed me money of course and I ended up being in debt (cannot let my wife knows) My gf is a prostitute by profession by the way. In the beginning this fact drove me nuts but recently I came to accept it. I just stopped picturing her with other men in my head. I wouldn't have believed it if you ask me a year ago. There had been many epi... |

I am feeling very low these days. Nothing seems to be in place lately. I know the reasons for the same however I am unable to create happiness or change my present state of my mind. My work is taking a toll on me. They are not paying me on time and I am getting frustrated because of it as I have my own expenses to be met. Also I feel am trapped in a shell where I am unable to comprehend what do I want in my life. Will the settlement at my job allow me to be happy. Yes to a large extent it would. But that is not happening and it would take sometime before things get worked out.
God help me to get out |

Currently I am on Medical Leave due to heavy depression. I am under the depression medication and sleeping disorder medication. I have never been on a sick more than 3 days in last 10 years. I am currently work as a senior technical position in the one of the top 100 companies in Canada over 8 years. I was a happy and productive employee. Last year I have move to my present job. 2 people on my team and my manager is fully responsible of my current situation. I am mentally physically and emotionally sick. The main reason was my poor English and other 2 persons reporting to my manager about me all the time. In the other words back stabbing.
I am an immigrant to this great country and living here over 14 years. My manger told me various times my English is bad and poor. This were happening in past 12 months. Also every time I work with other 2 person, they are reporting to my manager. One day my manager call me to his desk and ask me to sit down beside him and he told very loud, my English is very poor. he ask me to write a sentence in his computer. I was very shocked and very upset. I know all the people around my work area were heard. I also admit I did mistakes in my job. That because I did not had a proper training regarding the subject matter. I have ask the manager about the taining and he told me on the job training is the best. My job is mission critical system support and do require lots of training.
Long story short, After this incident he has re... |

I hate my job. I work as a weather man with long hours and crappy leadership. I get tired of people always telling me to do my job, why can't i just do nothing all day and get paid for that. Its soo hard, always no sleeping at work, no watching tv at work it makes me soo mad. Weather is horrible, its always there, how am i supposed to know if it's going to rain, look outside jackass, is it raining? there your freaking answer. I'm getting pretty tired of doing this job but its the only thing i know how to do. i tried working other jobs but got fired for being too good looking, its a curse i guess. any ways i'm thinking i'll quite later this week don't feel like dealing with all those people at work. |

Hello, my life truly sucks and it's mostly my fault. I just turned 27 with a barely above minimum wage retail crap job that I've had for a few years; I just finished with my bachelors in a degree I have no desire for. I'm going to quit my job today with no job lined up because I freaking hate it so much. I'm constantly being abused and used until I get so old that they will spit me out. Luckily I have enough savings to last me for a while and I'm living my parents. I have no friends and no girlfriend and yet sometimes girls do flirt with me but than I end up messing up because I don't know what the hell I'm doing.
I wear thick-ass glasses and have bad teeth. Everything I do seems to be never good enough for anybody. I just have to live my life for myself. I'm a bit shy and quiet with low self-esteem but I can get overly aggressive if I was super piss. Everytime I think about going into my crap retail job I end up crying and cannot do anything else. I'm going to quit today and that's freaking it and if the manager wants to fire or give me a bad reference than so freaking be it; I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE. I just feel like I cannot do any better than my crappy job but I just know there is something else out there if not than I'll go back to retail at a different company I mean come on I'm still under 30.
This is not the end until I'm the end. |

This is the lowest of lows ive ever felt in my entire life. Im 20 years old with a single mother and a father whos been in jail pretty much my whole life. This was no big deal, i was used to it and i was a pretty happy kid with exceptional grades. Once i finished high school i went off to college for radiology. Two semesters in my mother got very ill and i had to take off school to help her out. I was working a full time job at the same place for 6 years. Just recently my mother has gotten better but my work decided to close which forced me to collect unemployment for the time being. My employer told me we were only closing for 6 weeks so therefore i only applied for unemployment for those 6 weeks. About a week ago the business decided not to open back up but my unemployment had already stopped. On top of that i just paid all of my bills along with putting a down payment on an apartment close to where my new job will be starting in another month. With all that, i have no money left. So fast forward to today, i find out im pregnant of course. This was the downfall of my, everything else just seemed like an obstacle that i would overcome because thats always how ive lived my life. Very optimistic under the cards ive been dealt. I'm not sure how this has happened considering my boyfriend and i have taken all the precautionary measures. i just dont know what to do. eveything is so stressful. Why must the world revolve around money. |

Out of nowhere, in February 2011, my 16 year old son passed away (heartbroken doesn't even describe it) ...he had an underlying heart condition that we never knew about....two months later, my beloved dad passed away, four months later, my mother passed away.
This spring, I was removed from being at the top of my volunteer charity because there was a change in administration.
Today, I was told that the position I LOVE and worked very hard maintaining (going WELL beyond my job description), is being pulled back for someone who is angry, loud, miserable, and needs to retire.
I am devistated. I have little to no family left, and I don't have any friends due to the "clicks" at work. They only thing I had left was my job that I excell(ed) at. I already spoke to my boss, and his mind is made up. Having such a passion for what I do, that I was overcome with anxiety and GI problems, that I had to leave work. By the way, the news came in am e-mail.
Please don't say I need to change jobs, etc.
I feel that I have been pulled down in the mud, kicked, and spit on. I don't know what to do. I am so alone. |

For over 2 years I have been telling my bosses to move the person that I relieve from that area. He's lazy, unorganized, and shows up just to earn a paycheck. These same bosses tell me repeatedly that they love my work ethic. These same bosses tried to fire me when my son was born and I had to miss 2 days. These same bosses moved me off of 3rd shift to 2nd ....... and didn't have professionalism to tell me. I read it when they posted the new schedule.
The lazy guy I mentioned before has been screwing up for weeks. I have been fixing his mistakes (wiping his ass) for weeks. I have told my 6 members of management about his mistakes. He finally gets a mistake past me ....... and I'm the one that gets fired.
I've got a 13 month old baby. And I have no job |

I want to work, I want to learn, I want to love, I want to be happy! I don't have money for college, I have a part time job where I work 12 hours a day and when I get back I'm tired as hell. And I don't have any money left for ANYTHING. This isn't even my computer. How can a person stay motivated if what I want in life I can't be reached. All I can have is a part time job. And another after that..and another. I can't even buy a freaking book. And I love to read so much. I wish I could just read all day somewhere in a meadow in the mountains and enjoy the sunshine. Health care...jobs..social pressure...no real friends. I have friends, sure..I can't go out with them that much because I don't have the money to pay one drink. ONE. I'm 20. Nobody to help me. I'm not depressed or sad or angry, I'm just numb since I tried my best and it wasn't enough, because of MONEY. Please could you tell me, how do I make my life better? How can I change this? And be happy? I just want to not worry about bills and have enough money for books. I don't even care about clothes that much or expensive materialistic things. I want to work. I want to change. I need help. Help isn't coming. |

Let's see....
Husband lost job, family lost their home, lost 17 years of marriage. The man was, and still is a miserable verbally abusive asshole... Happy about the break up because the kids and I have some form of peace, but also sad & frustrated because so much invested in that much time. It's disgraceful that this person didn't recognize what he'd had, and still doesn't.
40 year friendship gone, due to unexpected death.
Just found out my other friend of 40 years is dying of an incurable disease, and may need to leave her remaining 3 children with me to finish raising them and loving them. Nervous about this because she lives so far away, I don't really know these kids.
Closest family member moved out of the country.
Work all the time because of a demanding low paying job. Financially strapped, tired, and feel unlovable, worthless, and heart wrenching-ly sad and lonely... Definitely NOT in finding someone new at the moment, but also afraid to trust at the same time....
Can't kill myself, too many people rely on me, & it would ruin their lives. |

college, med school, phd, residency, fellowship. Tired of seeing my life pass in front of me and do nothing. tired of work and study over nothing.
i hate my job, i hate my patients and those stupid nurses. i hate my colleges and my life i think i just hate myself. I sleep 3 hours every day, have to do everything im expected to do everything right and to be perfect outside work
Im tired of trying to be perfect. even though I've worked hard to be here, I am lazzy and not very smart. I used to care, now i don't give a damn if you get better or not.
Im so fucking tired of being given bullshit at work everyday. and then i get home and get extra bullshit for not returning calls? what do you think i WAS DOING? TANNING MY ASS AND DRINKING BEER IN HAWAII? NO!!! I was fucking working like an idiot.

Well to begin I’m in the army, have been for 10 years. I understand that life in the army is usually not too bad they provide for everything, rent, food, utilities and pay u to go to college. But I dug myself in a huge hole that it isn’t even funny. Now I realize that my story isn’t the worse and it is recoverable but at the very least it feels better to complain about the situation I’m in. Well first off let’s start with the job, like I said I’m in the army but a recruiter, now if u know about recruiting its very political. They don’t look out for anyone in the unit, they try and screw u over at every chance they get, and if u were ever to get on the hit list, good luck trying to get off of it, I should know from firsthand experience. And on top of that I am being investigated cause I admit I messed up on the paperwork, but it was unknowing to myself until it was actually pointed out on a piss test I had to conduct, so now I’m stressing about not only the investigation outcome which could end my career of 10 years, but I’m trying to balance getting people in the army cause if I don’t then I have about 3 to 5 people yelling at u asking y u haven’t put anyone in the army, so that how much fun I’m having at work and there’s more about work but I’ll get to that. Now let’s go with the ex-wife, I was married to her for 5 years I deployed to Iraq and she cheated on me we got divorced, we had a son together which even though we have joint custody she thinks that she has a... |

I got fired today. thats three jobs in last six weeks. Not my fault, store closing. my wife left me for a little person. My parents both beat me for the first 15 years of my life and I ran away. i have no education, and my car got repode last nite. I cant even afford a 40. I wont make rent on my own without my wife. I want this all to end. My herpes itches so bad i cant concentrate. I need new teeth because last year i got smashed in the face with a pipe when I was being mugged. I wear anti persprant and I still smell like a over ripe onion. I have a 2 inch you know what. I cant take this anymore. |

I am a professional man. I am married to another man, but the state doesn't recognize our marriage. For fourteen years I would have argued with anyone who claimed he would mess around with anther guy. Then I found emails where he was talking with other guys about hooking up for sex. He says he didn't do it, but I don't know what to think. He keeps secrets from me and is very reserved about what he does when I am not around.
I took a new job so I wouldn't travel as much so I could be with him. He took a new job that lets him not work when I am working and works when I am not working. He has a lot of free time, but doesn't tell me much about what he is doing. I don't know if he is fucking around. If he is I can't stop him. It's so available.
My new job has me working 10 hour days five days a week and several hours on Saturday and Sunday. (no extra pay) from problems that started because of the person in the position before me.
I have two kids, both adults, who seem to mostly contact me when they want something and they come by at Christmas to get gfts. They live in another state.
I don't want to live without my husband, but I don't want to live the way things are either. When I try to talk about things he gets mad. I dont know how to do anything else.
Life sucks, but not in a good way. I don't know how much longer it can go as it is. Too many things are fucked up at the same time.

I work for the two cheapest men alive. They hire shitty employees for dirt cheap that screw up and we then have to hire expensive workers to fix the problem. i never get taken to lunch (even though the bill is always reimbursed by whatever job they are working on) i make a meager 350 a week while they pocket 1100 fixed rate. i work by the hour and when it gets slow they ask me to leave. well since i make the least amount of money in the company but do the most work this doesnt make sense. i run the office (by myself) answer phone calls, emails, invoicing, estimates, payroll, accounting, bank related bull. And i get the short end of the stick. i have never met anyone in my life like these two. i feel trapped, and actually just want to take a nap im soo bored, but on the other hand i can watch tv when they are not around lol.

A year ago I had a great job working abroad. I'm from the UK originally, but this job had me travelling all over the Caribbean and every exotic location you can imagine. It all went wrong in late 2011, when I had a bout of depression that meant I got sent home. I fucking hate myself for it. This forced me to move in back in with my parents at 25 yrs old, with no suddenly no money and no immediate job prospects. I lost money, my independence and my self-respect. Every day turned into a pit of palpaple emotional agony and loathsome disappointment, and I ended up on a lot of random prescription drugs to help me sleep and keep calm. What's more, I see photos of former colleagues enjoying themselves in these wonderful places and I feel sooo angry at my self and the situation. This anger turns into intense frustration, as I would like to return but I am barred from doing so by medical professionals... I just want my fucking job back, but somehow the medical professionals feel it would be 'best' if I struggled a little longer back home! This only adds to the distress. I had a great job and fucked it up.
I think that life can be such a F***KING BITCH, and I sometimes wonder if I could ever bring a child into the world knowing the INEVITABLE intense pain/rejection/heatache they will have to endure at some point. Why put someone through that? It just seems selfish and immoral! I see these pictures of newborn babies and their gleeful parents and think: 'you ... |

life is very unfair. i get yelled by my boss many times. i want to leave the job but cannot due to compulsion. in line for promotion but not sure when. feel like a victim of racism and jealousy. no free time for myself. totally stressed out and suffwering frm hypertension. feel like a rat trapped in a cage. looks like death is approaching soon. fed up of my life. feel frustrated and helpless. regret that i always make wrong decisions. dont have faith in myself and afraid to make decisions. feel like a loser. keep falling each time i try to get back on track. not able to achieve anything in life. feel like a total waste and a burden to this earth. trying to change my thoughts but unable to do so. no control over my thoughts. always living in fear. no sense of belonging. alien in a foreign land. |
