      Another job that turned out to be a job that payed decent enough but turned into a HUGE nightmare and full of pain was being a CNA I’ll never go back that route EVER
      I was fed up when I was fired for some bs. All because I like the same sex.
      These jobs out here from what I gather don’t provide you with security and true happiness... I’m searching for stability right now. I’m at a call center job our pay was raised from 10.25 to 13.50 an hour ... after 6 months will be making $15.00
      The only reason I’ll be staying is because the pay and that equals more stability.
      I wish I could be doing something I don’t hate though.

    I don't hate my job. I hate that I don't have full confidence with it. Im new, and I feel like a puppy in a dog park. Im grateful for my job and I'm grateful for my pay, but I worry ill do a bad job, and I have no fear of losing my job as a consequence of doing a bad job, I just hate the idea of doing a bad job or feeling like I'm behind while doing my job. If I could have full confidence and knowledge with my job, I wouldn't dread it, but I dread it because I know that when I go to work I have a potential of messing up, and if I did mess up, it would lower my confidence even more. I wasn't raised with being confident with my abilities.

      @risingStar Thank you for asking. To give you some context, 8 months ago I was forced into doing multiple people's workload because we had to lay off some people during coronavirus. At the same time, I had the stress of trying to keep the company afloat so the people remaining wouldn't have to lose their jobs as well. So honestly it wasn't that I didn't like my job, it was just that I had to do a lot of other stuff besides my original tasks. I was working about 14 hours a day on average, 7 days a week. Mentally, I was reactive at work and that also affected my marriage. Now, I still have about the same amount of workload but I have decided to put my mental health and physical health first. I've made several changes to my day including prioritizing time to exercise, build in breaks throughout the day, and just go home and call it a day after a certain time. I had to basically accept the fact that I am only a human being that have limitations and that I can't get everything done perfectly and it's okay. I feel much better about myself, the people around me, and life now. There are still struggles but I just tell myself if you've done your best already, then it's fine.
      Sorry for the long update.

    I have a job that has COMPLETELY changed in just the course of a year! A boss I loved was fired, they put someone in her place with no experience in my field, upper management doesn't care, and I don't feel like I have a voice anymore or that my concerns even matter to them. It got so bad last year that I was on medication for anxiety and depression, just to be able to get through the day there. I'm trying hard to focus on the things I do like (close to home, pay is good, fairly easy job) but there are days when I don't want to be there. I will eventually have a retirement if I stick it out for a few more years, but when you are unhappy in a job, a few years feels like a million years!

    Everyone says "If you don't like it then leave!" That's why these videos are all the same. I'm 46 and I cold call for a living. Unlike the usual 20 something year old who does this sort of job, I'm good at it because I've been doing it my entire 'career'. Hence, I make a lot more $ than those who are in my position. And, my expenses require that I make this kind of $, so starting over at another career isn't an option. It's like a prison sentence. I hate sales and I really don't like people very much. Cold calling will help anyone hone their dislike of people. This is my fault though, I'm the one who let time get away from me. Any young person who's reading this - don't let this happen to you. Don't settle for a job you hate. You will wake up and you're in your 40's and it's just too late to switch. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.

    Thanks so much for this video. I enjoy serving customers but not when it cones to counting money & checking the stocks WHILE managing customers. I feel immense pressure to get things right as I’m new. When I get it wrong, I feel horrible.
    I honestly felt helpless and as you mentioned about having an exit plan, I’m looking at other job opportunities. Life’s too short to CHOOSE to stay miserable. Thank you for empowering me. Keep making videos!

    What I personally do is ready my phone. I install games, videos and memes so that I have something to look forward to during my breaks. It's easier to wait 2-3 hours for a break than the whole 8 hour shift.
    It doesn't make the job any less tedious, but at least now my breaks are fun and relaxing instead of me just awkwardly sitting it out and waiting to get back to work. Packing a nice lunch helps as well.

    • @LiveOnPurposeTV

      My work place won't allow us to use phones on our break unless we leave the facility. It makes me so tempted to go hoe for my break by I only have 30 min breaks and whenever I go home I never get back in time that I won't be late. I've been drawing or doing extra work, the extra work all day strategy makes my legs hurt tbh but it's more fun than drawing

    I think the most important thing to ask yourself before anything is "Do I really want to like this job?". Many times we search for answers, only to show resistance when we meet them. The reality is that if you're in a job that you don't like, it's no one else's fault but your own. No matter how much you are in denial, it's the facts. Focus on building the right skills & connections and as the video says, plan your exit. Whether you're miserable or loving your job, they're the same 8 - 12 hours

      It’s not your “fault” if you have no other options. How about having a 190k student loan for a profession and realizing 10 years in that you are 100% unsuited to the work and hate doing it, but nobody will hire you much less *interview* you because your 10 year history is niche. It’s not always your fault. Sometimes (and I’m in this situation) it is my ONLY option. Therefore I have and had no *choice* but to accept doing it. Not going to explain the last 14 years or why nothing else is a (viable) option for a (viable) life. Don’t have to explain. It is what it is. And it’s not my “fault” for not “simply” moving on. Some of us just have to *endure* indefinitely. Find someone to serve? My entire career is serving. I’m sick of serving. Nobody serves me. My entire existence is making other peoples lives easier. I sincerely don’t care if I’m offering value to others because nobody offers value to me. I just have to give and give. And I’m supposed to feel *gratitude* for *getting* to *serve*? No thank you. It’s not always our fault. Sometimes it just IS.

    I think the very hardest part about my job as a nurse is the patients that are mean/rude. Most are not but the ones who are make it so difficult to serve them as you say… it makes me question why I’m even there to help them. I know that they have a lot going on mentally/emotionally/physically, it’s my job to know that, but still. Makes it hard to stay positive sometimes so I’ll focus on your other points to stay positive lol

    I’ve got a job that is killing me but your advice about planning an exit really resonates. I only started in April last year so want to stick it out for 12 months but I know it’s not for me and I don’t seem to get on with my co-workers no matter how nice and helpful I try to be. I think they see it as weakness and use it against me. I’m going to start preparing to move departments after a year and see if I’m a better fit for another team.

    1- make the best out of it
    You can leave, if you choose not to leave based on any reason ( most of the times consequnces that it has) then make best out of it. Remmber you can leave whenever you want!
    2- find someone to serve
    It will make you feel better about what you are doing and reduce the difficulities you have with your job
    3-value creation
    You should know the value of your job and how it can be important. If you are a valiuable person the go ahead and share your value, make that fucking school somewhere better...
    Don't waste your time and theirs do add some value to this fucking world.
    4- be an intrigued observer
    Look from outside to the situation you are.
    It helps to take it not personally and being able to find solutions for problems
    5- Plan your exist
    You are not traped in this, there are a lot of opertunities out there and you need to be open to them
