my job is literally going to cause me a breakdown?

Sunday, August 31st, 2008
obviously, i don’t like my job. its $7.00/hr, no vacation days, no sick days, no benefits and we only get a raise if the government raises minimum wage. i’m full time on my shift and for the past year the part time girl who worked on my nights off consistenley called off and it was ME who had to come in, usually with last minute notice. i have talked to managment and no one cares as long as it doesn’t affect them. finally this girl quits and its ME again who has to pick up all the slack. i finally told managment i needed a day off so they pay someone almost double to come work for me. i have never gotten paid any extra then 7.00/hr to cover for anyone and i am told i have to do it. i had enough and today i told one my co-workers i was looking for a new job, and we got into it. she said this girl who did all this is in the past and to move on. i told her i was the one being screwed for the last year and i am still being screwed. the one i got into it with never had to accomadate her life to cover for the ***** up so she doesn’t understand. she told me this company needs me and to stop running away from my problems. my problem is that i’m sick of being screwed espeically for $7.00/hr and no one cares and the fact i NEED to make more money as i support myself and 7.00 hour just isn’t working out to well anymore. she likes the job and doesn’t get screwed so she thinks i should too. do you think it’d be running away from my problems to look for a new job? i’ve done all i can talking to managment and asking to work things out. thanks in advances

i’ve been there 3 years
sorry i forgot to add, i just got my degree, but with the economy can’t find anything yet in that filed

Stressed to the point of nervous breakdown. Help?

Monday, August 25th, 2008
helly inquired:


I have made a huge mistake. I completed my teacher training last year and have just got a teaching job. It’s only part time, but it is in a really rough school, where behaviour problems are terrible. It’s a temporary maternity cover until March, and I have only been there two weeks.

However, I can’t stand it. I can’t control any of my classes. The lessons are chaotic because I can’t control them enough to teach them what I need to. I feel stressed, and a failure. I come home and cry, or drink, or both. I can’t eat. I can’t sleep. I have been thinking of the most awful ways of making it go away.

I have 2 kids, one of which is autistic, and I have health problems anyway. I had a feeling that teaching might be too much for me, but I went ahead and got the job. Now I am regretting it big time. I can’t just leave. I signed a contract. On my days off I can’t relax because I am panicking about the days I will be at the school. I can’t concentrate on anything any more.

How shamefull is Colin Cowherd’s breakdown on ESPN radio?

Monday, August 11th, 2008
Colin Cowherd, whose complete background is covering the Pac-10, almost starts to cry as he whines about USC dropping below LSU. He reverses all of the Pac-10 facts to say LSU scheadule is soft. He shamefully points out that Carmen Diaz must not look good in the morning because she is not a natural beuty like Jennifer Anderson, and has the gal to call TULANE a “dance school” after what they went through in Katrina in building back an impressive football team with the former UCLA coach, with 2 Pac-10 titles, and very good players. He epitomizes the extreme bias that all media has with their love affair with themselves. If it is not LA or NY and liberal then in thier eyes it can not be good or worth the time to find out.
