alwaysbeenasmilerSo last week I had a pretty major breakdown at work. It involved me sitting there making bills, a seemingly harmless activity.. but all around me chaos was brewing and I just thought to myself "Death is preferrable to this". That thought alone caused me to step back and re-evaluate my life and what I was choosing to let stay in it i.e such a toxic environment as work. The more I was choosing to stay, the more I was giving them permission to work me 14 hours a day, five days a week.
I know what I am worth. I know I am a great worker, I excel at pretty much everything I set out to do and I've never had a problem with completing a task that was given. Yes, I've made some mistakes in my job and all jobs that I've done, but seriously we are all human, we learn from mistakes. I was starting to feel like an epic failure because they were giving me unrealistic odds to work with. If you only get ten hours of rest between shifts, you are GOING to fail-- from critical exhaustion and all of the side pals of critical exhaustions. Also I want to start a family, and that will not be possible with these hours.
My mother died a few weeks after I was born, from pregnancy complications and I am fearful that getting pregnant while in that work enviroment would be very harmful.
So I applied to Spectrum on wednesday-- by friday I had gone through the computer assessment, third interview AND I was offered the job as a Customer Relations Technical Support Coordinator on the Business side.
I will put in my two weeks-- don't think that they deserve it, but to not do it is not who I am. I have to act with integrity at all times, even if it's my own personal integrity.
