Antiwork

just need to vent because I’m at the end of my rope

I'm the type of person that makes up probably 60% of America. I am at a job I absolutely loathe. I can't stand being here and I can't stand my lazy ass coworker. Today I tried the, ” if I'm so mad about picking up her slack, then I should realize we are equals and not try so hard” mentality and I grabbed some breakfast while making a client who was an hour early for their apt wait about 20 minutes because I am already doing the work of about 3 people….. I definitely got in trouble by boss and told to eat before I come. Whatever…. I have been working over a hundred hours a paycheck, now giving up my Saturdays, and doing work by myself to pick up the slack…. I am looking for another job but they all sound so shit and I just can't even look…

I definitely got in trouble by boss and told to eat before I come. Whatever…. I have been working over a hundred hours a paycheck, now giving up my Saturdays, and doing work by myself to pick up the slack…. I am looking for another job but they all sound so shit and I just can't even look at a job opening without thinking that no matter where I apply, there's gonna be more lazy coworkers and more angry bosses no matter where I go….. There is no reward for working so much it's just a little extra money and a lot less free time. I feel like I'm so trapped in the system. I have a college degree in Aviation that I can't find a job for and I'm doing what I can to pay bills and save money like I'm mad but I am so unmotivated and I am so lost. There is no option to live life and enjoy it anymore it's either slave or die and I can't handle it anymore. I'm crying when I get home and I'm having mood swings. I have a countdown in my phone to the day I quit this job and move somewhere else and I have been recently telling my coworkers I don't think I'm gonna make it to that day. I didn't want to quit immediately out of anger or leave on bad terms, I wanted to put in a 2 week notice and do it the right way, but if there is no reward for how hard I work, surely there's no reward for telling them I'm leaving 2 weeks beforehand. I've told them I'm leaving in December but they have no idea I'm planning on quitting Nov 21…. I want to start my own business and just work by myself these days because I am becoming almost a bitter and angry woman doing what I am doing now.
