“I hate my job!”
For 8 Hours a Day, 5 Days a Week,
Does it Suck the Life Out of You?
Let’s face it. It’s tough enough to struggle out of bed each morning to shuffle into work knowing you’re going to spend 80% of the daylight hours putting up with your boss, your coworkers’ and your clients’: issues, idiosyncracies, issues, incompetence, politicking, issues, and childish games.
Oh, and add in stress undergirding every action you take!
Whether it’s the foreboding anxiety accompanying your decisions or the simmering rage you keep in check by redirecting it into passive aggressive behavior…or you don’t control it and have mini-eruptions you just try to forget about.
How do you not only make it through the day, but perform better as you do so?
How do you thrive over and above surviving?
Is it possible? It is within reason? Can you change from “I hate my job” to something bearable, dare we say enjoyable?
Can you be one of those people who walk out of work each day…mind you, working in a high stress office with their quirky co-workers and emotionally stunted boss…without the stench of stress, anger and anxiety?
Can you get home holding none of the workday junk? You know, right there in those marble hard knots in your shoulder.
How are you currently handling things?
Do you get home frazzled, just wanting to escape? Admit it, there are some really dumb TV shows you look forward to watching just because you don’t have to use your brain. You may find it relaxing to watch situations more insane with more insecure people than you handle everyday. It’s cathartic, in a strange way, to see others having to safely suffer a little more than you….even if it is scripted, make-believe, and entirely producer controlled “reality television.”
Or maybe you’ve gone after some gadgets or classes or techniques or gurus?
And of course there’s materialistic shopping and spiritual quests. Don’t want to forget those.
How do you find your way?
Let me help.
Here on this site you’ll acquire a few thoughts you can add to your mental toolbox. But not…
- Not stuff you have to do. (You get that all day at work.)
- No rules. (You’re an adult, right?)
- No regulations. (Why do you need someone controlling you?)
- No musts, have to’s, or shoulds. (You can make your own decisions.)
Just an outside observer putting an interesting twist on the troubles and travails of our office existence.
Check out the blog. Soon there will be an ebook. Maybe even a worthwhile weekly email. Stay tuned.
No one said you had to hate your job…it’s just most people don’t know how to get beyond surviving it.
Relaxed and Ready,
Chase Logan Hume
