Does anyone else feel this way about their job...........?

Question

I work in a library, and it seems to be sucking the life out of me. These people that use the library in this town arnt that bright, and it seems like all im here for is to tell these morons day after day how to use the copy machine, how to sign into their precious computers when there is a f**king sentence on the screen to tell them how (which they never read-i mean its only one damn line, and its right in the middle), and to tell them day after day how to print. Am i the only one who feels like this about the people that i serve as customers?

Answer 1

I am an EMT for a private ambulance company. And I can relate 100%. I see lazy people taking advantage of the medicare/medicaid system every day. And there's nothing like lifting a 300+ lbs patient and then having them comment "well that was easy." And the people that want to be carted around to their doctors appointments on a stretcher because "medicaid pays for it so why not, its free?" I'll tell you why not, because I'm tired of having to lift your fat, lazy a**. And to top it off, it's NOT free, I'M paying for it. As well as every other productive member of this society.

Yes my job is sucking the life out of me. I actually recently got suspended...long story, basically i don't care anymore. But I was so happy not to have to go to work, I was like a totally different person. My fiancee even commented "this is the person I met and fell in love with." During my suspension, I had 4 job interviews. I can't wait to get out of there.

Good luck with your job and thanks for the opportunity to vent about mine.

I think you would get great bennifit from reading a book called SEE YOU AT THE TOP by Zig Ziglar and his follow up book SEE YOU OVER THE TOP....here are a couple of quotes:

This I do know beyond any reasonable doubt. Regardless of what you are doing, if you pump long enough, hard enough and enthusiastically
enough, sooner or later the effort will bring forth the reward.

Answer 3

Sounds like customer service might not be your thing. Search the net to see what kind of jobs don't deal with the public and what kind of experience/education you have to have to get those jobs. Use this as an opportunity to better yourself. :) Good luck!

Answer 4

My job sucks also. I hate it. But I haven't found a new one yet and the bills must be paid.....
I agree that there are way too many stupid and lazy people in this world, and I will admit that sometimes I fit that description....
