Case of the Mondays...

I've got a case of the ol' Mondays. Or maybe its just "the blues." I'm sure that half of the world is feeling how I feel right now too. So at least I don't feel too alone.


Yesterday while I was talking to my Mom, (my parents are in NY) I just totally broke down. I told her that I didn't think that I really liked my job anymore. Or maybe its just on Mondays and Tuesdays I don't like it. I just feel really overwhelmed sometimes, and like I'm not doing a good job. Last week was a bad week, and even though its over, I just can't get over it. I thought about it all weekend, and I hated the fact that I was thinking about it too. I know that I should never take anything personally, but I do. I do because I feel terrible when I can't do anything to help someone, or I've made a mistake thats hard to fix. My Mom told me that there were days when she was great at her job, and times when she wasn't.

I know that no one is perfect, but I'm a perfectionist, so I stress big time when things don't go according to plan. I also don't always a lot of paitence. Some people just irritate crap outta me.

I also miss Steven more than ever, and can't wait until I've got my arms wrapped around him.

I really like the people here, but I hate being in this type of role. But I've only been here two months so I think that I should try and give it more time. My mom thinks that I should talk to my boss about being put into the recruiter role, but I don't think that I've been here long enough to do that. I'm also SO scared because of all of the bad luck that I've had in the past with jobs. I don't know how to get over this fear, and I also wonder if anyone out there really gets how I feel.

Heh, our posts had the same name. Is this long distance thing only temporary?

Hi caroline! Babe, you have no reason to be upset or feel weird, people think about work over the weekends, etc a lot..especially after a tough week. You are doing great and definately stick around, the confidence will build and they will soon realize you are the best hire they have made (if they dont already)!!! I love you, Laura
