I am currently working for my school through a work study program. I work in the computer dept. and I have been doing this since January 2009. I get pay to sit on the computer chair, do homework, play games on the Internet, go on Facebook, etc. I also help students with problems on the computer or printers, and sometimes help them with their homework assignment. During winter/summer season; set up new computers, replace the old computers, put them in the package, and send them to other schools in the area. Once in awhile, I would clean ALL the computer labs. It may seem like an easy job, but it gets old very fast. These computer chairs really do hurt my neck and back. At first, I loved my job and I enjoyed working with my co workers (now, they are former co workers). And now, I hate my job! I don’t care for my new co workers. I just got my hours cut, my paycheck is barely enough to pay for my $200 car payment and $80 car insurance. I am depressed 24/7 because of my job! It’s so dreading to wake up at 5:40 in the morning and drive 40 miles to work. On the bright side, next month, I will be transferring to an online university school. That means; I will have to quit my job once I transfer. Once you either transfer or graduate, you can no longer work for the school. The only time I am really happy is when I am at home or in class (not working, of course). I know I should be thankful that I have a job and all. I do try to make the best of it, really I do, but I just can’t! This morning at my job, I just wanted to cry for no reason! I think a lot of has to do with frustration, maybe? Next minute, I am happy and then I am sad. I always tell people it’s my once a month thing going on; I only say that because I don’t want people to know it’s my job that’s doing this to me. I don’t recall the last time I had a “good day” at work. After I come home from work, I am very tired and lazy. This past summer, I was working 2 days a week and I wanted to take advantage of working out, while I had the free time. Then, I had to work 4 days a week and I probably gained 20lbs, if not more. I can eat at work but I don’t have the time and when I would come home, I would eat something (unhealthy, of course). Then I would get hungry later on at night and then I would eat again. On weekends, I would be too tired from work, doing chores around the house, or doing homework and I don’t have time to work out. Do you really think my job is killing me? Or am I feeling sorry to myself because of my horrible job?
