Oh wow, that’s how I was feeling and saying to myself, I had lost my self confidence, every day in tears, on Friday I got an. Offer for 3$ an hour more, and less hours, I am. giving my notice tomorrow. There’s always end of the tunnel, keep your head up , after every dark night there is a bright morning. Learn. Your lesson and get out, imagine yourself already being where you want to be, I pray for you 🤗
I think many people get emotional about bad work situations because they want out so badly, but their finances make them feel as if they're stuck there.
@@mphorabutla5204 I hate my job but i have go to work full time cus i have to pay the bills. I don't want to end up being homeless and making no money.
This is me every day. All I want is to die. I'm on 3 psychiatric medications, been in therapy for year.... It's my job. I hate my job. I hate office work. It's not worth the money.
I used to have a call center job that gave me major anxiety and depression because I hated it so much. I would cry on my way to work and on my lunch breaks. It’s crazy because I actually was pretty good at it but it drained my soul. I then abandoned that job and decided to go back to school and I’m about to graduate with my bachelors degree in December. I’m so happy now!
I feel this way so much right now I work in a call center and I hate it so much I was thinking about going back to school and pursue something else because this call center environment is not for me
Ariel Johnson You should! I’ve been going to school full time and I use my leftover school money to pay my bills. I have a 6 year old daughter also. Idk what part of the country you live in but because cost of living where I live isn’t too high I’m able to pay my bills with that money. If you do, just make sure you choose a major that you can make some good money in to pay off student loans. I chose Information Technology. Try to get some scholarships too. Good luck and stay strong! I know how awful it is to dread going to work everyday.
Cindy Singleton I live in America I been looking into going in to the health field and try to do something part tome to pay for school I have never had a job where I hated so much like this one even my off days I dread because I know I have to come back in here this is no way to live
AA it went well, I have 5days left as notice. I wish I can finish now but for the sake of good ref I need to finish on good terms. I never thought I’d say this but I’d rather be broke for a while and be happy while find something else to do. I’m moving back to my parents for a couple of weeks until I can get me another job again. But for now, I just want to look after my mental and physical health. I have to get out while I’m still young and capable of doing more than just being stuck in a environment that drains me. At this point, I’m not afraid to start over again. I would rather do that than dreading going into work every single day and feel so uninspired..
@@aloha_oe311 how are you doing? Im in the same situation. Although i would like to safe until the end of the year. And also i work for a prestigious company and bla bla.
Joselyn548 I would advised to hold on for now because convid has made it extra difficult to find a job but that doesn’t mean there are no job out there. There’s tons of jobs everyday all you need to do is send your cv to every job you have experience with and ask for full time. While you are still working at your current. But don’t leave without a plan or no saving if you are the bread winner in the fam or have kids I suggest to find a new job before leaving. But for me, I have no kids and I was happy to give up my own flat just so I can start over again and I wasn’t bother by money. I just wanted to leave the toxic environment for the sake of my health. So different situations different way of dealing with. But you still cannot work in a place you’re not happy in, it will take its toll on you one day if you’re super unhappy everyday 🙁. I hope you’re ok.
I used to have suicidal thoughts every single morning going to work, crying so often, living from Friday to Friday so I can stay at home in bed on the weekends - and this was my dream job! Why it was hell? The people. The bullying. The constant jabs at my already self confidence. Gaslighting. Drama, constant attention seeking drama. I ended up disabled & unable to work after 4 years of this nightmare so if you find yourself in a similar place, please please please get out! Please save your soul.
Sorry to hear that happened to you. I experience the same thing at my first job. Co-worker I had constantly micro-managed me, even though my manager had no qualms. My manager said I was doing a fantastic job yet this co-worker kept micromanaging me. I had to tell him to knock it off. Then his friends in the department next to us start giving me jabs at work to rile me up. I quit, I had enough. That was 6 years ago. It was my first job and put a bad taste in my month. I didn't want to return to work since, but financially my back is up against the wall so I'm finally diving back into the workplace to give it a second shot. Wish me luck!
i remember hating my job too, literally crying in the bathroom because i hated it so much but couldn't quit because im a single parent with two kids, pay was good but I was miserable, only motivation i had were my kids, then i found another job I loved but pay is low. i quit my good paying job and stayed with the one i loved, i just have to be on a stricter budget..... but completely worth it because im happy(however is not my dream job) but i still love it!
@G.O.A.T The situation I'm in is I hate the job I'm in and I don't want to do it. But the problem is I don't want another job either. If you could tell me I could pick whatever job I wanted and the pay would be $1 million a year whether it's as a CEO or retail worker or anything in between or I can have $100,000 a year for doing nothing, I"d take the doing nothing all day long. I don't want to work. The situation I've tried to resolve this with is through FIRE, just saving up enough money to never work again. I've been saving decently for most of the past decade and got maybe another half of a decade to another full decade to go but it feels like I'm at the foot of Mount Everest. It feels like even if it might only be 5 years from now it might as well be 50 years from now. I go to work in tears as well... working for less money is not an option.
@G.O.A.T I don't want to be my own boss, that sounds like even more work. I'd rather just have enough money invested that I could quit working for myself or for others for good.
@@baddriversofrva if you have a family to support you cant just walk away from a job. And if a job uses up all your time and energy it is difficult to look for other work. Then if you do get a job interview you don't come across as enthusiastic and energized when you are in such are dark place. It took me 4 1/2 years to escape a job that almost ruined me and 12 months on I have still not completely recovered.
Exactly. It's easy to say "You're gonna go get a job in a local landscaping company!" She is? You sure about that? You sure they're hiring? You sure they'll hire her? You sure they'll even interview her? Do you have ANY idea how many jobs I have applied for that I was fully qualified for and I never even got a response? "You're just going to leave the job you hate and get a job at one you love!" Oh, okay.
What amazes me now is that the entire world - everyone in some corporate job anywhere - japan, USA, china, Italy - all feel the same way about job. What have we gotten ourselves into?
I have a new job every 6-9 months. Thought that was a bad thing, but you don’t owe a job anything. Even if the next job pays less, it’s worth it. Don’t get huge car/mortgage loans. Stack, save, move on. Levels.
I was in this lady’s place a few months ago. The job was literally killing me. I would wake up crying because I hated my employer, I would have back to back anxiety attacks, and my depression was at its worse. I felt so stuck because I was conditioned to think that I have to be miserable at this job to pay for things to survive. I quit and it was a great feeling.
I’m in this position right now and I’m not even two months into the job. Management is horrible, there’s no work life balance and having to go into the office makes me down right suicidal. Tempted to quit already but unfortunately I need the money, but my mental health has already been destroyed. I don’t know how much of this I can take.
@akesiaxavier276 feel like this myself (minus horrible management) and I am 3 months into a new job, not even sure if I even want to do office work anymore tbh as doing it for nearly 3 years has wiped me the hell out
I hate my job so much and I’m constantly applying for different jobs. Even for lower pay. I work in wealth management and I absolutely hate it even tho I prayed for a job opportunity like this and I was able to double my income. I’m constantly stressed out at work, can barely sleep because I wake up from dreaming about work, and even when I have time off from work I’m still thinking of the projects I have due at work.
God sent this to me today. Money is nothing if your not happy. I left a job i really loved to go make 4 $ more at a job that isn't necessarily bad but the work environment is so toxic. I cry everyday on the way to work in the bathroom, on the way to and from work. Corporate bullies , not uplifting , managers say they are supportive structured and kind just to fill the position then act another and step on your back. I learned that recently. Money doesn't matter if your not happy.
Similar situation. But I felt God tell me to move from the other job. Sometimes in order to grow you must be uncomfortable. What you're going through now might help you tackle a bigger battle in the future. Have faith and keep trusting God.
Its seems the same situation that I was In but I just resigned today. I felt so Dumb whenever I went to Work. It makes them feel that way towards me my co-worker. So I lose my self esteem and confidence to the job that I worked for only 3 months. But i like the jon just don't like the people that I worked with.
You could hear the relief and peace in her voice when Ken helped her connect with her purpose. She instantly went from hopeless to hopeful. Awesome call. Ken is gifted!
Yep, Ken can get tough with these callers, which is what they need. He does not let go until the caller can prove to him that they will do what they love. It is awesome to watch him in action.
@port nut Not true. My aunt pays her gardener 50$ an hour and he does a smashing job. If you have some business savvy you can hire other people to work for you and make a good living out of it.
It's VERY difficult to endure a job you hate, whether you have to stay or not. However, if you decide to leave, your emotional, mental, and physical state will THANK you. You have to determine for yourself what's more valuable. YOU or some job you hate.
I feel her pain and this video made me cry. I’m putting in so many hours of overtime, tears multiple times a day, anxiety thinking about work when I’m already clocked out and constantly feeling like I’m not doing enough. I keep a positive attitude daily, I help my teammates but I feel like gum on the bottom of someone’s shoe. I started my own business and I’m listening to this as I do overtime. Anyone else feeling defeated, you got this.
This kills me…. I’m also making six figures and making any less is preventing me from leaving. I hate my coworkers and boss. I’m extremely frustrated and the thought of working there for the rest of my life haunts me.
@@knutburner90210 STACK, SAVE AND MOVE ON... Once you have long term savings and your debt is paid. Leave because life is too short. You should not be miserable just to survive.
@@knutburner90210 could you tell me more? I'm 37 and starting a new job soon for almost 6 figures, but I know it will eat my soul eventually. It's like I'm on a train and I can't stop it. Do you have a plan for the next months or year, even just a vague plan?
@@guyfromavillage134 Sure. The work itself isn’t bad, but the people aren’t very welcoming. I’m an engineer. I’ve been here at this job for about 4 years now. At first it was great, but I had a falling out with my boss, which led to rumors and a toxic environment. Unfortunately, during these first few years I gained a bit of quite weight (the pandemic didn’t help), so I lost all my confidence as well. I’m planning on getting into shape, and then I’ll be confident enough to interview at other companies and hopefully escape this hellhole. Until then, I just have to keep my head up and perform until I can escape. I think I’ll even consider leaving for 10-15k less than I am making now. I just miss having friends at work. I live alone, so I don’t have anyone else to converse with besides the people at work. I can see how people go crazy from loneliness and neglect.
Anyone who ever worked in a call center knows how this lady feels. I barely lasted a year at my last job. I had to give myself a pep talk everyday to keep from quitting. It was sheer will to keep going to work until I just couldn't take it anymore.
I've been in the call center business for 6 years and I've been crying since then... But honestly I have in my mind what I would do with the money I'm earning to follow my dream to do art and live from that I refuse to stay there forever.... Find something you love and tried to save a little bit of money and pretty soon you will be there where you wanted to be but having a reason besides family to work for will really help you I promise you
I literally searched I hate my job and this video came up. I have been at my call center job for 8 months with no raise and I hate it. I'm actually good at it but I cry on the job and work half days and literally pull the plug on the computer. COVID+This Job has doubled my depression.
@@mrsminnamorato I worked at a call center I took about 100 calls a day they fired me on fmla I was sad but a blessing because that job was so stressful my manager used to micromanage me
Phone customer service here. I'm an introvert and really don't like everything I do. It worsen my anxiety. I can't quit because I'm working for my Family :( ** I found another company now with less talk time more on non voice tasks. I'm very grateful for this chance ❤️ I hope you guys would be out of the same situation I had ✨
I was in the same situation (except for the family part), but now I've moved to supply chain. The work is much better and you learn a lot more things there. You should consider it if you have that option.
I'm so depressed. I am miserable in a job but cannot afford to quit. There are no other jobs. I plan to start selling book on amazon fba as a side hustle.
I can feel this lady's pain. I once worked at a job in which the environment was very toxic. It literally drained me everyday. When I finally turned in my 2wks notice and left, it felt like a thousand pound had been lifted off of me.
this made me cry. I FEEL her pain SO much. I just started a new job and I HATE it. I see how everyone around me is so into it and stuff and I’m just there. It has made me so miserable and depressed I know this isn’t for me and what I was meant to do. I feel like getting my degree was a mistake too because I hate it and it’s not me. I know where my true passion lies and cooperate world isn’t for me I just feel like I can’t escape😭😞😞😞😞😞😞😞
For me it’s never the job itself that caused me stress but the people and directors. They always made me go above and beyond my job descriptions and used me as the new person to solve the problems that already existed that they were causing and would blame me if it was still broken even though it wasn’t even something part of my job.
I feel your pain. I hate my job so much that I don't even want to deal with customers and their small problems. They've become an annoyance rather than an opportunity and i hate it
Same here. I have never been a people person, which is probably why I hate my job. I work in a grocery store so of course you have deal with customers throughout the day. Every time one of them comes up to me I don't look at them as a customer, I look at them as someone getting in the way of me doing my job. It's exhausting having to deal with them. I can't wait to quit that place someday.
I just.... I just feel her pain. I feel like I have never been happy at a job, and I keep just moving around, but now... I feel miserable waking up and crying going to my desk. I am making my husband miserable, all my down time is taken up with toxic thoughts of work, and I just feel like there is no hope.
i feel the same way😞 i haven’t been myself since the start of my job. everytime i wake up, all i feel is this heaviness and i started to cry. and i don’t want to disappoint my loved ones. i genuinely don’t know what to do at this point.
I go to a job every day that makes me absolutely miserable. I deal with horrible customers that lead me to want to shoot my self every single day. I’m very skilled in what I do but find myself having to put more effort into not being an asshole to my rude customers than I do just to be nice to them. I work as a service manager in an automotive shop. I’ve started to hate the general population as a whole because of the raw stupidity I deal with from them daily
Hello olecheese, I totally understand you, I work in Phone customer service and the customerr are rude an racist sometimes, let me tell you something, I realize that if we have no job, things are going to be harder FOR A WHILE, but if we stay in this horrible Jobs, WE WILL TRULY DIE, we will lose our souls and we don't have to let that happen. A job should not be the reason of why a person stopped being happy. Take a desicion, do it for your happines, for your future and most important, for your Health.
I got this after working in customer service for almost 5 years! Been off customer service for about a year and I finally feel like I’m starting to hate people a little bit less. It’s incredible how much time you need to recover from CS jobs..
@@lucy-in-the-sky9292 I'm gald to know you are happy now, something I was worried about was the long term consecuences of maintained stress. Not healthy at all.
I just don’t want to work at all.. I have been trying a bunch of jobs and have been working many years, I just wanna do what I love and not wasting my life.😔 life is hard and it sucks but we just need to stay strong🥺
$47k is not enough to stay at a job you frickin HATE. There are multiple ways to make $47k. And this misery is NOT worth that money. The girl is crying every day to work. That is awful. This woman feels bad for quitting. You should never feel sorry for removing yourself from a job that sucks the life out of you.
Yeah but when broccoli costs $10 for 2 shitty little pieces nowadays there's no choice. We have to have another job lined up before we quit a current job. That's a horrible idea.
@@mikepawlikguitarhow about moving back to a low cost state? I mean idk about what people in usa going through but moving back to a simple life is often the right choice. Ones life isn't worth the stress these cities are giving...
Ugh, I feel this every god damn day. I wanted to change jobs then bloody COVID came... now I'm feeling stuck. Sick of working in IT sitting at a desk hearing about peoples problems and doing the same thing on repeat everyday.,
I work in stock retail and wearing a mask for almost 46 hours a week is fucking pissing me off. Customers are mentally challenged and everyone is overworked. Almost everyone I know there hates it but no one can get out. Everyone feels stuck man
Let me present my perspective here. I am in an IT job in which I need to provide technical support to various problems constantly. Problem solving all the time is draining. Sometimes I feel doing repetitive tasks is relaxing. I think a good job would be like 70% repetitive work and 30% innovation/creativity/doing or learning something new.
Omggg I feel her pain, I was in retail for a very long time and I recently took a job in the corporate world it’s my first ever office job I absolutely hate it. I have always felt a way with every job that I had I’m always depressed in it. And it’s crazy because I always wanted an office job and now I’m here and I absolutely hate it. The money is more then I’ve ever made before. But it’s not for me it’s too much stress and not something that I want to do forever I just want to do what I love but it’s hard because I don’t know how to get there 😔
Same boat here, hun. I used to work in customer service which drained my soul. And now I'm working in a startup IT company, and shit's not any better. Even the pay is worse than when I was in call center. I couldn't leave cos it s pandemic, the boss is manipulative af, and other jobs have work from home setup but I got no personal laptop (I'm using the company's, if I resign I'll return this shit, I got nothing to use). I'm saving up for one til God knows when. And I'm just dying already. *Sighs* Good luck to us.
I work in customer service and it gives me terrible anxiety to go to work. Some of the college students I deal with are extremely difficult to deal with. I have to even call security. I don't want to deal with the public anymore.
It’s me. I’m Stephanie, just with a different name. Her entire situation was like hearing my own. Only thing is, I have absolutely no idea what I want to do. I feel so guilty for not being happy at my job with the good pay and benefits, but I know that this line of work is just not where I’m supposed to be. This story brought me to tears too, Stephanie.
@@lytonya1533 I definitely know the feeling. Sometimes things of that nature are revealed at unexpected times and moments though, so hopefully we will get our answers to that question when the right time comes.
Theres Bills to pay. If your in a job well paid its difficult to leave even if you hate it. The other thing is you may find your next job is not that great and you hate that too. It's a horrible situation to be in.
I am crying watching this at my office desk because I feel her pain. I still don't have the guts to quit my job, but this video inspires me to set a specific goal when to quit my job and what to do after that. Thank you!
I am a Paralegal, and its the most thankless and emotionally draining thing I've ever done. I had surgery in June and was so upset that they only kept me two days, I considered it a vacation. The attorneys get all the praise, but I do all the work. I'm in family law, so it's brutal! They make 400k+ while I'm breaking around 50k. I'm so tired working 60 hours a week. I cry daily too and feel dead inside. I have to make some moves.
I'm a doctor but I was made to work as a receptionist.. I totally lost confidence in me. It was really toxic. Today I took this step to resign for my mental health.. though I don't have another job in hand, I had to take this step. I hope I'll get a good job next 😇
I’ve been there before, it was a toxic work environment. Everyday before work I would cry, my lunch break I’d cry and my way home I would cry. Now I’m in a job that I enjoy and work with people who are positive and the complete opposite of toxic. Everything happens for a reason!
:( I really want to quit my job but the pay and benefits, I really need it too. My parents said this company is good for me and they said I'm weak because I cant handle these things. Now I'm crying in the middle of meeting at the bathroom. Sorry for my bad english. I hate my job. It is eating my soul day by day. The environment is very toxic
claudia anggreacia I so feel this I’m Going through that same thing 😔 and listen it’s time that you go for your passion don’t worry so much about what your family says , you matter and your happiness matters I too get stuck in jobs because of what family says but if you stay cause of family the. You may have regrets later, I would start to look for jobs now and create an exit plan to get out of that toxic environment
@@claudiaanggreacia4556 your parents are toxic. If you can leave , do it. If you can't right now, save up a few months of expenses and look for something you think you would enjoy. That's what I'm doing.
I started crying with her because it’s what I’m going through now. I just don’t have the balls to quit and feel like I’m wasting my life away. My coworkers are actuallly nice and I’m scared to let them down. I’ve just never felt so miserable.
At some point in life you have to make difficult decisions and sometimes it's scary, but if you're optimistic everything will alright, you deserve happiness in your life.
I didn’t quit my job 6 months ago to do what I really wanted to do bc the money was less and I felt like I was letting my coworkers down too. Well, most of them quit this year and didn’t care about leaving me behind! Lesson learned!
When it comes to something like this, people always watch out for their own mental health. So they need to understand you need to do what's best for YOU. Don't feel like you're irreplaceable, you never are in a common job.
Nothing is worse than going to a job you can't stand every day. I currently don't like mine but I certainly paste a smile on my face and I am professional about the work I do. I just won an award for my work but that doesn't make me like my job anymore. I'm in it to take care of my house which I own alone.
I work at Starbucks. It’s emotionally and physically draining. And I only work 4 hours per day. It’s fucking hell though. They pay you minimum wage for the workload of 2 positions.
I understand, during the afternoon they make you solo on drive-thru. It's worst if you got a order wrong and your boss gets mad at you for having a slow time. I hate doing closing you have to wash the dishes and do a lot of cleaning. I would only work the morning shifts if I were you.
I totally feel her. I get emotional every time I start to talk about my job. And my parents find it difficult to understand why the burnout and why it's so hard to move past that.
I am a call center agent from Dominican Republic. I DO HATE MY JOB. I AM ACTUALLY WORKING HARD TO HAVE MY OWN ENGLISH ACADEMY. I LOVE TEACHING. ALSO, I LOVE PROGRAMMING..IT TAKES ME UP TO THE SKY, I AM LEARNING A LOT ABOUT PROGRAMMING TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE.
I felt the same way...i saved up money,quit my job and started my own small bussiness.I don't make the same amount of money anymore but Im much more happier and at peace...I dont regret it a day in my life.
I quit my job two days ago after 1 month into the job. I was not mistreated but I realized right away that it was not the right job for me. I feel so guilty today. A lot of negative talk going on in my head. I feel like I am a failure and that I let my husband and family down. I can relate to Stephanie so much. I cried along with her.
I'm in this position... I work at a grocery store..... the people aren't bad...I'm dealing with a toxic woker... when I work with him... he doesn't do anything at all... and my energy drains at work..... I'm unhappy being there.....I may end up going back to my old workplace..... I have no heat against them at all...
In the same boat 😩 I hate my corporate job...I have built a small cake pop business in which I do right after I get off. I love creating small treats. Anyway, i feel stuck 🥴
I really feel her pain, there's a lot of passion behind this video omg I shed tears 😢😔 Everyone needs to find what gives true financial freedom and happiness, if your 9-5 gives you that then keep it! I Just found your channel. you rock 🎉

I talk to my dad about it and he said you’re gonna have stress and a job and told me to toughen up. I had to tell him mental health is more important than a job. Guys don’t be afraid to be the bad guy in order set yourself up to succeed. I’m about to quit my job because my mental health.
If you hate your job, this is your cue to start looking for a new job. If you hate your career then you need to start taking steps to learn a new career. Invest in you. Don't quit your current job until you have a new one.
I’m glad she called because I’m experiencing the same emotion as I’m watching this. Literally crying because I know didn’t call me to do my current job & I feel like I’m wasting my life🤦🏽♀️
millsathn either you’re trolling or you’re genuinely looking for help. People fear what they don’t understand and that’s ok too. Because I use the term God, don’t assume you know what my beliefs are. I used to be you. Research a little more and you’ll get some answers....
Beautifully Bree you struggle with reasoning. You don’t understand death or purpose of pain, etc. It’s all just fear. I’m not here to debate. I’ve done enough of that in my life. I would rather reserve my energy if you don’t mind.
This is me. I just don’t know what I would rather do. I’m so exhausted with life and have so much anxiety I feel like giving up on life. Being brave is hard and I did that all my life. Being brave is never something you get use too.
Don’t give up. I am in the same situation. The main reason I am watching this video is to find some support. My job is draining my soul but I cannot quit, and life is too stressful.
Feeling same friend , you are not alone in this world with same situation and troubles. Many are leaving life with this hazardous situation. There is no way , what should we do!. My life , mind , thought process , confidance , freedom , behaviour , beliefs and ultimately my soul collapsed after starting my first ever job. Previously I have done many work and small businesses but I choosen stable work and I got trapped , now I couldn't leave because of family pressure. I don't know why I'm giving such excruciating pain to my self. I also facing many disease and health problems. Mental issues , brain pain and frequent headache. Continuous seating and working without second thought making my every day miserable. I was very feeling ful person who can feel every micro emotion and live happily , I was smiling and cheerful person But now I can't even get feeling of joy and happiness. this is going miserable like hell😩. Still I'm leaving , I don't have any way to get out of this , I'm feeling my life is going to destroy and I am watching it with pain , life has become "pain". Still with some breath of happiness I could feel I'm living with hope that someday everything would be okay.
I have suicidal thoughts as soon as i wake up and when im about to sleep and all the in-between. I dont know what to do anymore, i just dont bond with people. Every job i seem to be a target, ive done everything.
I needed this. I hate my job where I've been working for almost 2 years, it's a comfortable job and provides me income, but i hate what i do here and it's eating my soul. The work pressure is immense and I have no time for my family and friends except on weekends. I told my manager today that i want to quit and had enough. I want to follow my passion of writing and develop myself in other skills.

I hate my job...and I feel stuck because the pay is good and I need it. But after 6 months at this job, I have gained 30 pounds, I am stressed out all the time. I am on call 24/7...my phone rings on the weekend, nights, holidays....it is salary so there is never really any being completely "off." I have NO joy in my life any more. I dread going to work every day and don't know how much longer I will be able to keep this up withought just walking out...but if I do that, I can't pay the bills. I feel trapped and there is no way out. If I take a lower paying job, that would put us in hardship....there is no way out that I can see.
I feel like her I work 2 jobs 7 days a week for last 4 years...I'm emotionally, physically and mentally drained.every time I go to quit one of them I get scared..I'm to a point I can't take it anymore. I'm in tears every day I wake up
I felt this way at my last job. When they put me in a job that wasn't for me, I immediately started looking for something else and put in my two week's notice a month later.
I have the exact same issue as her. I litrally count down the hours I have before work, the next day. I left one toxic job, for an even more toxic job. Co-workers are ALWAYS soo angry all the time. I have NEVER been snapped at as much as I have now. I even dream of work, almost nightly. I feel soo trapped. I dont have skills. Im trying to find me. I have no dreams.
Goodness....this is just how I feel😢. Am sending you hugs. I literally cry multiple times a day . I almost got a miscarriage because of this job that I previously considered a dream after leaving a toxic one. This one is more than the word toxic....with just a pay raise.
@katieyoung have a look at taking a state exam to give you a quick needed qualification for a little study time and a few hundred bucks investment. They have many areas e.g CAM Community Association Manager etc. As they are state exam various industries HAVE to have an applicant with the qualification and don't really care about the "resume" as they are needing to be compliant with the State.
I cried In my best friends arms this morning. He was so hurt to see me crying just to go into work. I cried because we lost two good workers and the hard work falls on us who’s left there. They hired two new girls but they quit. Nobody stays I wish it were that easy for me... just to quit but I can’t. And I don’t want to find another job because it’s going to be the same thing. It’s like a cycle keeps repeating itself. And I agree I’ve wasted many years on my life with jobs that are not for me. I have a friend who doesn’t work at all and he told me he was happy with life. Lucky him cause he gets a check once a month! Smh 🤦♀️
I gave my notice yesterday at my corporate retail mgmt job. I'm taking a pay cut, but it's ok because we can afford it for now. I'm going to manage a small bakery that is opening from the ground up. I'm scared, but excited. Making people happy with food, especially baking, It's what I love to do. It wouldn't be possible if I wasn't debt free. Follow the baby steps, your life will change.
My last 3 jobs I had no time to myself meaning groceries shopping resting or even eating. I always got called in and had to stay late. Now I set my hours i dont take a job unless it's a set schedule.
I feel the pain. I am in a job that I have no passion or care for. I hear others talk about day to day business related tasks, but I just don't care. My biggest concern everyday is lunchtime and 5pm.
Yep. I worked in a cubicle in corporate, and I question what's the purpose of life. Is this it? We work so hard in school, studying day and night, and once that's done with we work a job that is repetitive and monotonous till we retire. How can you feel excited about that? I was suicidal somedays and there were days I couldn't get up for work. When I was younger I felt being an adult was going to be fun, but reality hit me like a ton of bricks after university. Life is not easy, you have to keep working and improving yourself or at least maintain a sense of balance if you are stressed out and crying for help. Make sure you do physical exercises, be alone and reflect about how blessed you are in life, and do activities you like on the side. Or else you'll go crazy if you only obsess about how much you hate your job.

I think many people get emotional about bad work situations because they want out so badly, but their finances make them feel as if they're stuck there.

They are stuck there. We’re all prisoners.
Completely true

I used to have a call center job that gave me major anxiety and depression because I hated it so much. I would cry on my way to work and on my lunch breaks. It’s crazy because I actually was pretty good at it but it drained my soul. I then abandoned that job and decided to go back to school and I’m about to graduate with my bachelors degree in December. I’m so happy now!
I feel this way so much right now I work in a call center and I hate it so much I was thinking about going back to school and pursue something else because this call center environment is not for me
I have been crying for almost a year now in the same industry.
Reyn Nuera are you in the call center environment too?
Ariel Johnson You should! I’ve been going to school full time and I use my leftover school money to pay my bills. I have a 6 year old daughter also. Idk what part of the country you live in but because cost of living where I live isn’t too high I’m able to pay my bills with that money. If you do, just make sure you choose a major that you can make some good money in to pay off student loans. I chose Information Technology. Try to get some scholarships too. Good luck and stay strong! I know how awful it is to dread going to work everyday.
Cindy Singleton I live in America I been looking into going in to the health field and try to do something part tome to pay for school I have never had a job where I hated so much like this one even my off days I dread because I know I have to come back in here this is no way to live
I feel this lady’s pain. The same situation I’m in. I am resigning tomorrow, and I feel so much happier. I feel like a weight off my chest.
how did it go ? i wish i had the courage to do it :(
AA it went well, I have 5days left as notice. I wish I can finish now but for the sake of good ref I need to finish on good terms. I never thought I’d say this but I’d rather be broke for a while and be happy while find something else to do. I’m moving back to my parents for a couple of weeks until I can get me another job again. But for now, I just want to look after my mental and physical health. I have to get out while I’m still young and capable of doing more than just being stuck in a environment that drains me. At this point, I’m not afraid to start over again. I would rather do that than dreading going into work every single day and feel so uninspired..
So happy for you 😊👏👏
@@aloha_oe311 how are you doing? Im in the same situation. Although i would like to safe until the end of the year. And also i work for a prestigious company and bla bla.
Joselyn548 I would advised to hold on for now because convid has made it extra difficult to find a job but that doesn’t mean there are no job out there. There’s tons of jobs everyday all you need to do is send your cv to every job you have experience with and ask for full time. While you are still working at your current. But don’t leave without a plan or no saving if you are the bread winner in the fam or have kids I suggest to find a new job before leaving. But for me, I have no kids and I was happy to give up my own flat just so I can start over again and I wasn’t bother by money. I just wanted to leave the toxic environment for the sake of my health. So different situations different way of dealing with. But you still cannot work in a place you’re not happy in, it will take its toll on you one day if you’re super unhappy everyday 🙁. I hope you’re ok.
I used to have suicidal thoughts every single morning going to work, crying so often, living from Friday to Friday so I can stay at home in bed on the weekends - and this was my dream job! Why it was hell? The people. The bullying. The constant jabs at my already self confidence. Gaslighting. Drama, constant attention seeking drama. I ended up disabled & unable to work after 4 years of this nightmare so if you find yourself in a similar place, please please please get out! Please save your soul.
My life atm
Wow I’m so sorry to hear that
@@tiffb1300 I hate that ppl feel this way!
Sorry to hear that happened to you. I experience the same thing at my first job. Co-worker I had constantly micro-managed me, even though my manager had no qualms. My manager said I was doing a fantastic job yet this co-worker kept micromanaging me. I had to tell him to knock it off. Then his friends in the department next to us start giving me jabs at work to rile me up. I quit, I had enough. That was 6 years ago. It was my first job and put a bad taste in my month. I didn't want to return to work since, but financially my back is up against the wall so I'm finally diving back into the workplace to give it a second shot. Wish me luck!

Good mental health was more important.
I hope you get your dream job soon!
glad you had the courage to take up the step..
@G.O.A.T The situation I'm in is I hate the job I'm in and I don't want to do it. But the problem is I don't want another job either. If you could tell me I could pick whatever job I wanted and the pay would be $1 million a year whether it's as a CEO or retail worker or anything in between or I can have $100,000 a year for doing nothing, I"d take the doing nothing all day long. I don't want to work. The situation I've tried to resolve this with is through FIRE, just saving up enough money to never work again. I've been saving decently for most of the past decade and got maybe another half of a decade to another full decade to go but it feels like I'm at the foot of Mount Everest. It feels like even if it might only be 5 years from now it might as well be 50 years from now. I go to work in tears as well... working for less money is not an option.
@G.O.A.T I don't want to be my own boss, that sounds like even more work.
I'd rather just have enough money invested that I could quit working for myself or for others for good.
It’s easy to say “ you don’t like your job, find another one”. That’s what the hell Ive been trying to do but can’t find anything else!
That part. I’m so sick of feeling trapped
@@baddriversofrva if you have a family to support you cant just walk away from a job. And if a job uses up all your time and energy it is difficult to look for other work. Then if you do get a job interview you don't come across as enthusiastic and energized when you are in such are dark place. It took me 4 1/2 years to escape a job that almost ruined me and 12 months on I have still not completely recovered.
Exactly. It's easy to say "You're gonna go get a job in a local landscaping company!" She is? You sure about that? You sure they're hiring? You sure they'll hire her? You sure they'll even interview her? Do you have ANY idea how many jobs I have applied for that I was fully qualified for and I never even got a response? "You're just going to leave the job you hate and get a job at one you love!" Oh, okay.
What amazes me now is that the entire world - everyone in some corporate job anywhere - japan, USA, china, Italy - all feel the same way about job. What have we gotten ourselves into?
Good question! 🤔🤔🤔
Preach my friend!
It’s absolutely sad...
Right but it all started in school they brainwash you into just getting a job. So people rush into getting a job but not following their passion.
The whole systems of things is sort of a problem...
I have a new job every 6-9 months. Thought that was a bad thing, but you don’t owe a job anything. Even if the next job pays less, it’s worth it. Don’t get huge car/mortgage loans. Stack, save, move on. Levels.
Thats right Sydney!! There's levels to this here!!!
"Stack, save, move on." love this. Writing this down. ✍️🗒️
Girl you are GOALS! I feel trapped in my current job and feel so anxious to exit, God knows I'll crack soon!
They don't bring that up in interviews?
Plus it gives u more experiences!
Jobs destroy you slowly.
I was in this lady’s place a few months ago. The job was literally killing me. I would wake up crying because I hated my employer, I would have back to back anxiety attacks, and my depression was at its worse. I felt so stuck because I was conditioned to think that I have to be miserable at this job to pay for things to survive. I quit and it was a great feeling.
Yes I feel like another person. Just too tired and sad all the time. But I'm looking other jobs
I’m in this position right now and I’m not even two months into the job. Management is horrible, there’s no work life balance and having to go into the office makes me down right suicidal. Tempted to quit already but unfortunately I need the money, but my mental health has already been destroyed. I don’t know how much of this I can take.
@akesiaxavier276 feel like this myself (minus horrible management) and I am 3 months into a new job, not even sure if I even want to do office work anymore tbh as doing it for nearly 3 years has wiped me the hell out
To anyone out there feeling lost, THERE IS HOPE!! STAY STRONG YOU GOT THIS NEVER GIVE UP
Bless you!
Thank you!
I have been going through a similar hardship as well. I have officially quit and I am suddenly sleeping better and enjoying life again!
Happy for you! I want to quit so bad too but i have bills to pay and a family who looks up to me, I'd feel selfish to quit and disappoint everyone
I hate my job so much and I’m constantly applying for different jobs. Even for lower pay. I work in wealth management and I absolutely hate it even tho I prayed for a job opportunity like this and I was able to double my income. I’m constantly stressed out at work, can barely sleep because I wake up from dreaming about work, and even when I have time off from work I’m still thinking of the projects I have due at work.
I’m in tears on my lunch break because I feel exactly how this girl feels. It’s devastating
I had to cancel my vacation because there was no point, I did not feel relaxed and kept constantly crying.
I’ve been in an exotic trip only to think about my horrible job, so I get what you’re saying.
a good meditation is more relaxing than a good vacation just throwing that out there
Reminds me of the Snl Italy Tour skit. Adam Sandler kept warning the audience if you’re sad now you’ll probably still be sad if you go somewhere else.
God sent this to me today. Money is nothing if your not happy. I left a job i really loved to go make 4 $ more at a job that isn't necessarily bad but the work environment is so toxic. I cry everyday on the way to work in the bathroom, on the way to and from work. Corporate bullies , not uplifting , managers say they are supportive structured and kind just to fill the position then act another and step on your back. I learned that recently. Money doesn't matter if your not happy.
agree
I feel just like this.
I did the same thing same situation same emotions. I’m mad at myself for leaving something that worked for me for more money. It wasn’t worth it
Similar situation. But I felt God tell me to move from the other job. Sometimes in order to grow you must be uncomfortable. What you're going through now might help you tackle a bigger battle in the future. Have faith and keep trusting God.
Its seems the same situation that I was In but I just resigned today. I felt so Dumb whenever I went to Work. It makes them feel that way towards me my co-worker. So I lose my self esteem and confidence to the job that I worked for only 3 months. But i like the jon just don't like the people that I worked with.
You could hear the relief and peace in her voice when Ken helped her connect with her purpose. She instantly went from hopeless to hopeful.
Awesome call. Ken is gifted!
Yep, Ken can get tough with these callers, which is what they need. He does not let go until the caller can prove to him that they will do what they love. It is awesome to watch him in action.
@port nut Not true. My aunt pays her gardener 50$ an hour and he does a smashing job. If you have some business savvy you can hire other people to work for you and make a good living out of it.
It's VERY difficult to endure a job you hate, whether you have to stay or not. However, if you decide to leave, your emotional, mental, and physical state will THANK you. You have to determine for yourself what's more valuable. YOU or some job you hate.
I feel her pain and this video made me cry. I’m putting in so many hours of overtime, tears multiple times a day, anxiety thinking about work when I’m already clocked out and constantly feeling like I’m not doing enough. I keep a positive attitude daily, I help my teammates but I feel like gum on the bottom of someone’s shoe.
I started my own business and I’m listening to this as I do overtime. Anyone else feeling defeated, you got this.

I completely relate
I went through this exactly. I left my job, 6 figures to poverty level. My soul was worth it.
This kills me…. I’m also making six figures and making any less is preventing me from leaving. I hate my coworkers and boss. I’m extremely frustrated and the thought of working there for the rest of my life haunts me.

Do you have a plan for the next months or year, even just a vague plan?
@@guyfromavillage134 Sure. The work itself isn’t bad, but the people aren’t very welcoming. I’m an engineer. I’ve been here at this job for about 4 years now. At first it was great, but I had a falling out with my boss, which led to rumors and a toxic environment.
Unfortunately, during these first few years I gained a bit of quite weight (the pandemic didn’t help), so I lost all my confidence as well. I’m planning on getting into shape, and then I’ll be confident enough to interview at other companies and hopefully escape this hellhole. Until then, I just have to keep my head up and perform until I can escape. I think I’ll even consider leaving for 10-15k less than I am making now.
I just miss having friends at work. I live alone, so I don’t have anyone else to converse with besides the people at work. I can see how people go crazy from loneliness and neglect.
Anyone who ever worked in a call center knows how this lady feels. I barely lasted a year at my last job. I had to give myself a pep talk everyday to keep from quitting. It was sheer will to keep going to work until I just couldn't take it anymore.
Same here. You've described me perfectly
I lasted 15 mins and left. Screw that
I've been in the call center business for 6 years and I've been crying since then... But honestly I have in my mind what I would do with the money I'm earning to follow my dream to do art and live from that I refuse to stay there forever.... Find something you love and tried to save a little bit of money and pretty soon you will be there where you wanted to be but having a reason besides family to work for will really help you I promise you

What fantastic, what's your job?
Maybe works in a morgue 😂
For me it’s never the job itself that caused me stress but the people and directors. They always made me go above and beyond my job descriptions and used me as the new person to solve the problems that already existed that they were causing and would blame me if it was still broken even though it wasn’t even something part of my job.
I so resonate with this. 😢
I feel your pain. I hate my job so much that I don't even want to deal with customers and their small problems. They've become an annoyance rather than an opportunity and i hate it
Same here. I have never been a people person, which is probably why I hate my job. I work in a grocery store so of course you have deal with customers throughout the day. Every time one of them comes up to me I don't look at them as a customer, I look at them as someone getting in the way of me doing my job. It's exhausting having to deal with them. I can't wait to quit that place someday.

I think a good job would be like 70% repetitive work and 30% innovation/creativity/doing or learning something new.
Same here mate, I feel so lost and ashamed
I work the same IT support job and I’m hating it absolutely after 3 months. I want to change it but can’t due to Covid-19.
Omggg I feel her pain, I was in retail for a very long time and I recently took a job in the corporate world it’s my first ever office job I absolutely hate it. I have always felt a way with every job that I had I’m always depressed in it. And it’s crazy because I always wanted an office job and now I’m here and I absolutely hate it. The money is more then I’ve ever made before. But it’s not for me it’s too much stress and not something that I want to do forever I just want to do what I love but it’s hard because I don’t know how to get there 😔
I’m literally in the same boat as you. 😭 I hope we both find a way out.
Donsurae Byrd omg I’m so sorry you’re too I’m still going through it and I’m working on a exit strategy I can’t do this anymore 😔
@@SharlenesJourney me too
MF .D 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Same boat here, hun. I used to work in customer service which drained my soul. And now I'm working in a startup IT company, and shit's not any better. Even the pay is worse than when I was in call center. I couldn't leave cos it s pandemic, the boss is manipulative af, and other jobs have work from home setup but I got no personal laptop (I'm using the company's, if I resign I'll return this shit, I got nothing to use). I'm saving up for one til God knows when. And I'm just dying already. *Sighs* Good luck to us.
I work in customer service and it gives me terrible anxiety to go to work. Some of the college students I deal with are extremely difficult to deal with. I have to even call security. I don't want to deal with the public anymore.
A lot of entitled brats, mentally unstable, you gave me flashbacks from my internships.
It’s me. I’m Stephanie, just with a different name. Her entire situation was like hearing my own. Only thing is, I have absolutely no idea what I want to do. I feel so guilty for not being happy at my job with the good pay and benefits, but I know that this line of work is just not where I’m supposed to be. This story brought me to tears too, Stephanie.
Me!!! I don’t have a passion for anything in life. There is nothing that I want to do everyday for the rest of my life.
@@lytonya1533 I definitely know the feeling. Sometimes things of that nature are revealed at unexpected times and moments though, so hopefully we will get our answers to that question when the right time comes.
Same here. I'm just looking for a job I can tolerate.
@@lytonya1533 You sound just like me. What do you love? Anything you love, you can try to profit from being self employed.
look into glamping renting !
I moved for a new job. I ended up hating it. The culture was toxic. The company put in a place that wasnt safe. It made me hate going to work.
I work in a job with a toxic culture too. It’s crushing. I feel trapped
I'm in a very similar situation. Out of curiosity, because quite some time has passed since you posted that comment - what did you end up doing?
Theres Bills to pay. If your in a job well paid its difficult to leave even if you hate it. The other thing is you may find your next job is not that great and you hate that too.
It's a horrible situation to be in.
Definitely. That’s why I’m trying my best to figure out this mess while I’m young with no children and just a neglected pet cactus.
@@lol.3460 same
I love how Ken finds "the why"! The fear causes from the lies. You are not selfish, you can do something you enjoy and make more money.
You're cute
@@DavidVonR not an appropriate place my man.
I am crying watching this at my office desk because I feel her pain. I still don't have the guts to quit my job, but this video inspires me to set a specific goal when to quit my job and what to do after that. Thank you!
@@okaypearl that’s what I want to know
Who doesnt hate their job? But how can I survive without money? Im stuck in here!
I am a Paralegal, and its the most thankless and emotionally draining thing I've ever done. I had surgery in June and was so upset that they only kept me two days, I considered it a vacation. The attorneys get all the praise, but I do all the work. I'm in family law, so it's brutal! They make 400k+ while I'm breaking around 50k. I'm so tired working 60 hours a week. I cry daily too and feel dead inside. I have to make some moves.
Did you find anything else? I'm in a similar position...
How are you now? I'm also in the same boat, and I'm so depressed and miserable.
I'm a doctor but I was made to work as a receptionist.. I totally lost confidence in me. It was really toxic. Today I took this step to resign for my mental health.. though I don't have another job in hand, I had to take this step. I hope I'll get a good job next 😇
Working as a adoctor is s stressful job, being a receptionist isn't as hard
A BUNCH of us felt her pain - YAY Stephanie - BREAKTHROUGH !!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve been there before, it was a toxic work environment. Everyday before work I would cry, my lunch break I’d cry and my way home I would cry. Now I’m in a job that I enjoy and work with people who are positive and the complete opposite of toxic. Everything happens for a reason!
:( I really want to quit my job but the pay and benefits, I really need it too. My parents said this company is good for me and they said I'm weak because I cant handle these things. Now I'm crying in the middle of meeting at the bathroom. Sorry for my bad english. I hate my job. It is eating my soul day by day. The environment is very toxic
claudia anggreacia I so feel this I’m
Going through that same thing 😔 and listen it’s time that you go for your passion don’t worry so much about what your family says , you matter and your happiness matters I too get stuck in jobs because of what family says but if you stay cause of family the. You may have regrets later, I would start to look for jobs now and create an exit plan to get out of that toxic environment
@@claudiaanggreacia4556 your parents are toxic. If you can leave , do it. If you can't right now, save up a few months of expenses and look for something you think you would enjoy. That's what I'm doing.
I started crying with her because it’s what I’m going through now. I just don’t have the balls to quit and feel like I’m wasting my life away. My coworkers are actuallly nice and I’m scared to let them down. I’ve just never felt so miserable.
At some point in life you have to make difficult decisions and sometimes it's scary, but if you're optimistic everything will alright, you deserve happiness in your life.
Same here....im crying everyday but because of financial obligations I can’t just quit. Im diagnosed with anxiety because of it. 🥺😢
@@lifeandmorechannel2987 praying for you, I hope you get debt free asap, do what you love after that
I didn’t quit my job 6 months ago to do what I really wanted to do bc the money was less and I felt like I was letting my coworkers down too. Well, most of them quit this year and didn’t care about leaving me behind! Lesson learned!
When it comes to something like this, people always watch out for their own mental health. So they need to understand you need to do what's best for YOU. Don't feel like you're irreplaceable, you never are in a common job.
I have stomachache everyday going to work… and I know it’s from stress
Nothing is worse than going to a job you can't stand every day. I currently don't like mine but I certainly paste a smile on my face and I am professional about the work I do. I just won an award for my work but that doesn't make me like my job anymore. I'm in it to take care of my house which I own alone.
Good advice, paste a smile on my face :)
Happiest time of my life was being unemployed.
Hahahaahahahahahaha it’s great! If we could just figure out a way to get paid and be unemployed.
I work at Starbucks. It’s emotionally and physically draining. And I only work 4 hours per day. It’s fucking hell though. They pay you minimum wage for the workload of 2 positions.
Since when does Starbucks pay 7.25/hr?
I understand, during the afternoon they make you solo on drive-thru. It's worst if you got a order wrong and your boss gets mad at you for having a slow time. I hate doing closing you have to wash the dishes and do a lot of cleaning. I would only work the morning shifts if I were you.
I totally feel her. I get emotional every time I start to talk about my job. And my parents find it difficult to understand why the burnout and why it's so hard to move past that.
I’m working retail right now and I feel like crying every night feeling sorry for myself
I am tired of dreading going to work. It affects everything!
I am a call center agent from Dominican Republic. I DO HATE MY JOB. I AM ACTUALLY WORKING HARD TO HAVE MY OWN ENGLISH ACADEMY. I LOVE TEACHING. ALSO, I LOVE PROGRAMMING..IT TAKES ME UP TO THE SKY, I AM LEARNING A LOT ABOUT PROGRAMMING TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE.
There HAS to be a better way than 9-5 M-F office jobs. There just has to
I felt the same way...i saved up money,quit my job and started my own small bussiness.I don't make the same amount of money anymore but Im much more happier and at peace...I dont regret it a day in my life.
I quit my job two days ago after 1 month into the job. I was not mistreated but I realized right away that it was not the right job for me. I feel so guilty today. A lot of negative talk going on in my head. I feel like I am a failure and that I let my husband and family down. I can relate to Stephanie so much. I cried along with her.
You aren’t a failure, you have guts
You are capable doing incredible things!
You aren't a failure... You are mentally quite strong to resign which most of the people aren't capable of
I'm in this position... I work at a grocery store..... the people aren't bad...I'm dealing with a toxic woker... when I work with him... he doesn't do anything at all... and my energy drains at work..... I'm unhappy being there.....I may end up going back to my old workplace..... I have no heat against them at all...
In the same boat 😩 I hate my corporate job...I have built a small cake pop business in which I do right after I get off. I love creating small treats. Anyway, i feel stuck 🥴
I really feel her pain, there's a lot of passion behind this video omg I shed tears 😢😔 Everyone needs to find what gives true financial freedom and happiness, if your 9-5 gives you that then keep it!
I Just found your channel. you rock 🎉
People should've woke up to this a long time ago
Having a 9_5 is not a dream any longer
@@melvinjohnreacher9566 I really enjoy doing my work, and still financially independent having my passive income pay for my lifestyle. I will retire early at 45 so I can travel the world.
@@kimayaknight7180 cool 👍
How do you make so much from passive income?
I make extra income from side business and most importantly investments
This is Ken doing what Ken was born to do. It was fun to watch.
Truly so! His energy and ability to connect with and help the caller all in 10 minutes is incredible!
to be honest, this was the first video i've seen of ken alone (without dave). he's awesome!
I work full-time in a warehouse and it started to get to a point Work my anxiety is making me feel so unmotivated to do things outside of work. I like to do. I talk to my dad about it and he said you’re gonna have stress and a job and told me to toughen up. I had to tell him mental health is more important than a job.
Guys don’t be afraid to be the bad guy in order set yourself up to succeed. I’m about to quit my job because my mental health.
If you hate your job, this is your cue to start looking for a new job. If you hate your career then you need to start taking steps to learn a new career. Invest in you. Don't quit your current job until you have a new one.
" You just do you"
that was enough to make me cry
My job makes me feel like I am not enough and I will never be
I’m glad she called because I’m experiencing the same emotion as I’m watching this. Literally crying because I know didn’t call me to do my current job & I feel like I’m wasting my life🤦🏽♀️
God sent this to me today. I literally have been looking for this answer all morning. Thanks Ken!!!
Sorry to tell you, but he did it. You just came across it randomly and that’s okay
millsathn I don’t believe anything happens by chance. I don’t even think that’s how nature or even physics works
youngkey3051 so why does god give children cancer, or allow millions to starve to death?
millsathn either you’re trolling or you’re genuinely looking for help. People fear what they don’t understand and that’s ok too. Because I use the term God, don’t assume you know what my beliefs are. I used to be you. Research a little more and you’ll get some answers....
Beautifully Bree you struggle with reasoning. You don’t understand death or purpose of pain, etc. It’s all just fear. I’m not here to debate. I’ve done enough of that in my life. I would rather reserve my energy if you don’t mind.
I don’t mind the job. It’s the people. Ugh. This encouraged me
I agree with you on that. People makes everything sucks
This is me. I just don’t know what I would rather do. I’m so exhausted with life and have so much anxiety I feel like giving up on life. Being brave is hard and I did that all my life. Being brave is never something you get use too.
Hang in there...
You're not alone.
Don’t give up. I am in the same situation. The main reason I am watching this video is to find some support. My job is draining my soul but I cannot quit, and life is too stressful.
Feeling same friend , you are not alone in this world with same situation and troubles. Many are leaving life with this hazardous situation. There is no way , what should we do!.
My life , mind , thought process , confidance , freedom , behaviour , beliefs and ultimately my soul collapsed after starting my first ever job.
Previously I have done many work and small businesses but I choosen stable work and I got trapped , now I couldn't leave because of family pressure.
I don't know why I'm giving such excruciating pain to my self.
I also facing many disease and health problems.
Mental issues , brain pain and frequent headache.
Continuous seating and working without second thought making my every day miserable.
I was very feeling ful person who can feel every micro emotion and live happily , I was smiling and cheerful person
But now I can't even get feeling of joy and happiness. this is going miserable like hell😩.
Still I'm leaving , I don't have any way to get out of this , I'm feeling my life is going to destroy and I am watching it with pain , life has become "pain".
Still with some breath of happiness I could feel I'm living with hope that someday everything would be okay.
@@nilayrachchh3371 I wish you find some hope. Prayer to u.
I have suicidal thoughts as soon as i wake up and when im about to sleep and all the in-between. I dont know what to do anymore, i just dont bond with people. Every job i seem to be a target, ive done everything.
Wow he hit the nail on the head. “You’re afraid.”
I needed this. I hate my job where I've been working for almost 2 years, it's a comfortable job and provides me income, but i hate what i do here and it's eating my soul. The work pressure is immense and I have no time for my family and friends except on weekends. I told my manager today that i want to quit and had enough. I want to follow my passion of writing and develop myself in other skills.
Bhai job me bahut tension h yr. App kis job me the??
What happened did you quit ?
@@SharlenesJourney yup, it's been 15 days since I quit, took a vacation, gave time to family, now I'm working on developing my writing and planning on a post graduation. Life's good so far.
@@somakmukherjee5300 keep up the good work!
me too! am about to go in and quit my job. I have tried everything but am still not excellent and I know it's because it's not what I want to do.
Great video, my problem is that I don't believe there is a job out there that is any better, I have had so many terrible ones.
Lol. Same!
That's why so many people build their own businesses. As long as you work for a company or for somebody you'll be a slave and won't be free.
Me too
I rathee die than work deadend jobs making me frustrated and feeling miserabl. I hate my life and hate being disabled for entire life. Jobs destroys me
You can always learn and try new things to make a bit more money also. Life is hard on anyone. Day and night we all suffee in one way or another.
@@penguingobrrbrr353 how can I do that?
I pray for this world. It's not fair that so many of us have to give an arm and a leg to live a comfortable and peaceful life.
I hate my job...and I feel stuck because the pay is good and I need it. But after 6 months at this job, I have gained 30 pounds, I am stressed out all the time. I am on call 24/7...my phone rings on the weekend, nights, holidays....it is salary so there is never really any being completely "off." I have NO joy in my life any more. I dread going to work every day and don't know how much longer I will be able to keep this up withought just walking out...but if I do that, I can't pay the bills. I feel trapped and there is no way out. If I take a lower paying job, that would put us in hardship....there is no way out that I can see.
THIS VIDEO IS EXACTLY FOR ME. I AM STEPHANIE. THANK YOU STEPHANIE FOR CALLING IN. YOUR CALL WAS FOR ME
I hate my job. I’m working in a dying industry, for a company that I hate and I know that will throw me away when no more new project comes in.
Oil and gas?
I feel like her I work 2 jobs 7 days a week for last 4 years...I'm emotionally, physically and mentally drained.every time I go to quit one of them I get scared..I'm to a point I can't take it anymore. I'm in tears every day I wake up
I hope you’re doing better! 🙏
I can totally relate. I love my job. I hate the management and the pay. And yes its a fear especially with the current situation.
I felt this way at my last job. When they put me in a job that wasn't for me, I immediately started looking for something else and put in my two week's notice a month later.
I have the exact same issue as her. I litrally count down the hours I have before work, the next day. I left one toxic job, for an even more toxic job. Co-workers are ALWAYS soo angry all the time. I have NEVER been snapped at as much as I have now. I even dream of work, almost nightly. I feel soo trapped. I dont have skills. Im trying to find me. I have no dreams.
Goodness....this is just how I feel😢. Am sending you hugs. I literally cry multiple times a day . I almost got a miscarriage because of this job that I previously considered a dream after leaving a toxic one. This one is more than the word toxic....with just a pay raise.
@katieyoung have a look at taking a state exam to give you a quick needed qualification for a little study time and a few hundred bucks investment. They have many areas e.g CAM Community Association Manager etc. As they are state exam various industries HAVE to have an applicant with the qualification and don't really care about the "resume" as they are needing to be compliant with the State.
What I want a job is that Im happy.. Im happy to go to work and where I can say that salary is a "bonus"
I know someone who works in a morgue and love it, no toxic work politics except for the occasional dead ones suddenly sitting up lol
Really 😅
I love that he's cheering her on and confirming that there's a way out and through to her dreams. Looove this!!
I cried In my best friends arms this morning. He was so hurt to see me crying just to go into work. I cried because we lost two good workers and the hard work falls on us who’s left there. They hired two new girls but they quit. Nobody stays I wish it were that easy for me... just to quit but I can’t. And I don’t want to find another job because it’s going to be the same thing. It’s like a cycle keeps repeating itself. And I agree I’ve wasted many years on my life with jobs that are not for me. I have a friend who doesn’t work at all and he told me he was happy with life. Lucky him cause he gets a check once a month! Smh 🤦♀️
Been there. Now working my dream job. You got this, Stephanie!
I gave my notice yesterday at my corporate retail mgmt job. I'm taking a pay cut, but it's ok because we can afford it for now. I'm going to manage a small bakery that is opening from the ground up. I'm scared, but excited. Making people happy with food, especially baking, It's what I love to do. It wouldn't be possible if I wasn't debt free. Follow the baby steps, your life will change.
I am done with my job so I decided to quite it and spend my life at home 😍😊
My last 3 jobs I had no time to myself meaning groceries shopping resting or even eating. I always got called in and had to stay late. Now I set my hours i dont take a job unless it's a set schedule.
She goes from tears to laughing! Thank you Ken! :)
I can see why this man should be paid a huge amount of money. He helped her go from job hate to optimistic
I feel the pain. I am in a job that I have no passion or care for.
I hear others talk about day to day business related tasks, but I just don't care. My biggest concern everyday is lunchtime and 5pm.
Yep. I worked in a cubicle in corporate, and I question what's the purpose of life. Is this it? We work so hard in school, studying day and night, and once that's done with we work a job that is repetitive and monotonous till we retire. How can you feel excited about that? I was suicidal somedays and there were days I couldn't get up for work.
When I was younger I felt being an adult was going to be fun, but reality hit me like a ton of bricks after university. Life is not easy, you have to keep working and improving yourself or at least maintain a sense of balance if you are stressed out and crying for help. Make sure you do physical exercises, be alone and reflect about how blessed you are in life, and do activities you like on the side. Or else you'll go crazy if you only obsess about how much you hate your job.
Tiger , i don’t know how old you are …but your Analysis is spot on . what you said is purely wisdom. I believe you’ll succeed in anything you put your mind into doing …Best of luck to all of us ..
Wow she is so strong. Thanks for calling Stephanie . You really helped a lot of people. ❤️
