New job and hate it so much it's making me depressed?

2013-06-19 12:03 am
Im in college at the moment, doing software engineering and iv just got a new job, summer job, my first real job (had one before but it was super easy). Only done two days but I hate this job so much I delay going to sleep at night. I HATE IT! I'm working for a resturant, I'm on the floor and my hours are horrible - 40 hours a week. One of the kitchen sinks smells so bad, iv never in my whole life smelt anything half as bad as it. I have gotten sick over the smell and I have to empty stuff in it every 10 minutes. It's horrible! My legs are so sore after a shift, I feel like they are about to come off. And I'm so tired I could sleep for 20 hours but I can't because I'm in 5 days a week. I'm so miserable I keep crying thinking about work. Even in work sometimes the smallest things set me off and I have to rush to the bathroom to cry. My family is tight with money at the moment so I need the job but I hate it so much I don't know what to do!! I'm so miserable, this is not how I wanted to spend my summer. If I was working at the coffee stands or serving I'd be happy but I have to clean the floor and tables for 8 hours and its so daunting. Iv asked to change but they keep saying no. I usually hate when summer ends and college starts but because of this job I can't wait for college. What do I do????? I'm so misirable!!!

Give me a break! This is your first job! Do the best you can with it and make up your mind to be happy that you have a job!

Ask the manager/owner is there is something that can be done about the odor in the sink and tell them it is making you sick.

Decide that you are going to like something about your job! There is a law in the universe which basically goes like this --to those who are thankful for what they have more will be given---to those who are not thankful for what they have more will be taken away.

There is another law of the universe that says----show good diligence 9with a good attitude) in the small tasks and more opportunities will open to you.

This is just a temporary job until you have the education and means to get a better job --in the meantime develop some positive attitude skills and some backbone and do a good job!~

I am here to help. Although I may not be a jedi, I'll still happy to hear you out :)
You cannot change the circumstances, but you can still change the way you think and do things.
Try to have a cup of tea when you have time, and gather your family to explain to them what happened to you, I am sure they will listen to your sorrows and suffering. Or you could try to ask Jesus Christ for help, praying to Jesus may help. Listen to songs and music, I recommend this song: "Once Upon a Time by Leo Ku". I hope it helps and may the force be with you :)
Remember a Jedi also has a hard life, so take this as part of your training. And remember after all this pain, you'll get experience and boarder view at the end, and the reward is good and cannot be measured. Remember, the force will be with you, always.
Try to relax for a while and do some exercise. It may help :)

You keep saying to yourself that it won't last forever. It's a way to make money, nothing more. When you're qualified in software engineering you'll never have to do this again, remember that. Then you'll look back and laugh about what you had to do to get through your education.
I used to clean public toilets. Imagine how bad that was...
