I'm confident in my work ethic, I love fast paced environments and helping others. I'm not interested in server positions I need stable income. I don't mind sitting at a desk nor getting my hands dirty. I'd love to find something full time and with benefits.

I felt like the shift manager was signaling me out and I wasn't the only one in the back. One out of the other two that was back there was the General Manager cousin.It was his first day and he act like he just wanted to wash dishes. I had to batter chicken change it after every drop while they was hollering out what else they needed and get the beepers when they go off so food wouldn't burn. And drop fries apple pies and shrimp u name it. I felt like they didn't want to see anyone help me out. The shift Manager had told me that if she could do it then I could.I wasn't getting paid what she was either. I just walked out. That was the first time I ever did that on a job.

The first 6 years were fun and enjoyable. Staff and Dr were great to work with. Felt like family. The past 7 years felt like a roller coaster, with staff change and EMR changes every 2 years. This past year was the worst, Dr moved to a medical group, lied to the employees and became very selfish, staff as well changed. You didn't feel that warm, family feel anymore, it was more jealousy and selfishness, such a sad feeling. So unfortunate.

I’m not even sure where to begin with this, but I’m going to speak from the heart and put it on paper.

A few months ago I spoke about what happened at my last job of 12 years, being let go and squeezed out and lied to and manipulated, and how it made me feel; the rage, the embarrassment, the depression, the impact on my self-esteem. I was fortunate enough to find a temp job 2 days after being let go and worked there for 2 1/2 months, then was fortunate again to find a full-time job and had no gap in employment. It’s a job title similar to what I did in my job with 12 years, with a much smaller company and still so far which seems to be a non-corporate, friendly type of environment.

So what’s the problem? First and foremost, I accepted this job with a large salary cut, and I did it because I was working this temp job that could’ve ended at any point, I am paying $1100 a month on garbage health insurance and I had nothing else lined up. I’ve been here for 2 months with practically nothing to do at all. I have been given resumes to scan through to see if they are a fit for open positions within my team, then scheduling interviews. Other than go to some weekly management meetings, that is all I have literally done the last 2 months. I barely get emails, I have nothing to do and I’m bored out of my mind and quite honestly my mind is racing. I am so accustomed to being busy, so sitting around and barely doing anything is driving me nuts. I’ve mentioned to my manager and co-managers if I can help them with anything, I have hardly gotten additional feedback as far as what I can help them with. I have spoken with my manager earlier this week and told him my concerns, he explained like he did a month ago at my 1 month review that they don’t want to overwhelm me, They want to make sure the timing is right, they want to make sure that I’m happy with the company and they also want to make sure their investment with me it’s a good one. But I have to question this method, because the longer I sit here with nothing to do, and I’ll be very transparent I have a lot of anxiety building up and I’ve had to on occasion take Xanax to calm me down. I honestly normally never get this way, except I did go through this once before about 14 years ago.

I’m trying to figure out what is causing this anxiety and depression, this is situational as I do not suffer from this. I think part of it is I’m still trying to get over what happened to me in my last job, there are times where I have a slight glimmer of hope they will call me back to return there. But I know that was a bad environment and I needed to get out. I feel like I should stick through this and see whether I like it or not once I start to get busy, but in the meantime I’ll still be bored and my mind will be racing and I’ll have anxiety building up. I feel like I should leave and be honest with myself, but I read all the stories about how everyone is having such a hard time finding a job, i’m pretty sure right now exactly what I want but how long will take to get there? I glance through the job boards and I save jobs but I don’t apply to them.

To be perfectly honest, I feel very embarrassed saying this. There are so many people out there with situations so much worse and would trade places with me any day or any time. I feel so ungrateful and I feel like I sound like a wimp, what’s ironic is that this is so not me. I have always been typically very headstrong and confident, this knocked the proverbial shit out of me. I keep telling my wife I should really just shut the hell up and stop complaining, look at what other people go through. She tells me I need to be true to myself and not diminish my feelings for what is going on. I’ve read so many articles that I will get through this and I’m going through stages of mourning. Part of me wants to run out of this place like a bat out of hell and start somewhere else with a job that I know will be fulfilling, the other part of me feels I should stick through this and see how it turns out. Part of me wants to look for other jobs, the other part of me holds back. I am in limbo and this is causing a lot of turmoil and confusion. I want to try to stick this out, but it’s honestly affecting my health, causing me anxiety and depression and now I’m taking Xanax more frequently. As bad as it is, I feel like I need to leave immediately and spend full time looking for contract work or better yet full time opportunities.

I think that it so very important to always remain close to what a person feels most comfortable doing concerning the type of, "Work Environment" that best suits one's individual needs as then you will thrive and be an asset to your company! "Likewise, it is most important to know one's weaknesses as then a person can try and place themselves in the type of work that will make them excel rather than struggle! "I am a firm believer in using all of my job experiences combined with my educational knowledge as I know I will succeed if I do this!" " Best of luck to everyone who is seeking their "Dream Jobs!"
