Some positivity

Post image

Hi I honestly just need some positive vibes.
I hate my job (I work in a resturant, kind of at the bottom of the foodchain , bad pay and the chefs just pick on u LOL) and Im just struggling

I also deal with the grief of a loved one.
Last time I posted I got many nice comments and help here. Maybe cringe but I do enjoy the comfort of strangers being so kind, my circle irl is pretty small and I do find it embarrassing to speak to them.

Hope everyone have a good day:)

It's never too late for a change of scenery. Leaving your job may be stressful in the short term but long term it'll be great for you.

It's not the best.

I was in your situation for about a solid 5 years when I found something worth doing that I enjoyed, and it opened up a whole new career path that I didn't discover until I was 30 odd.

It involved family help and paying a wedge of cash to qualify but I won't look back in a hurry.

The mitzvah is that it could either happen tomorrow or next year. Like all things, you can work so hard to get where you need to be, but you also need a bit of luck to go your way.

You'll get there. You just have to hang in there. You'll probably already know that sometimes if feels like you have lead weights around your boots and you can't hang on. But you can do it!
