That's why i'm applying to places where i go and help the people lke clean houses help them out that kind of stuff.

Yeah, those sound like much better jobs for you.

I've actually got an interview tomorrow as a helper for a mobile vet... no experience required or anything. I'm kind of nervous, but the vet is a friend of a friend, and I think the vet's business partner is a friend, so... maybe it will work out.

Good luck! I loved working at a vet's office. I miss it so much. *sigh*

Good luck hun!

I know but with my bipolar disorder I'm afraid I will quit it or whhatever.

Just tell yourself that you won't let yourself do that. It'll be hard, but you're on medication and you will get better and better at controlling the disease. [yes]

It was kinda crazy, actually... we had a pet sitter while I was away the other week, and I mentioned to her that I was looking for a job. And then Saturday she called me and said she had a vet friend who wanted a part-time helper. And I was in a community play with someone who's a vet that I -think- is this vet's business partner, and one of my references is the director for that play, and another reference was in the play and happens to be married to a vet, so I might have all kinds of pull for this one. *crosses fingers*

Good luck to you, too, CFK. I can sympathize-- I stopped showing up at a job once. >.> It was a soul-crushing job and I couldn't handle it on top of my depression. The best advice I can give is to set a tolerance bar for jobs and just don't apply for anything above your tolerance level. That... doesn't work if you're talking 'job or food', though.

ATTENTION!

[hug] I love you steel!

Thanks, I never thought bout that... I have jobs I wont dare try, like any with food or where I'll be around crowds because crowds give me panic attacks.

And remember sometimes it helps a lot to just have someone to vent to!

I gotta admit to being a little jealous, Wyrm. I have a hard time getting rehired for vet's office jobs now because they all think I'm gonna leave and go back to vet school. :( But if you need any advice or want to talk about things, let me know!

Thanks Xogizmoox:! Added you to the lists and you're entered into the raffle!

Heehee I'm loved XD

I have a few people I vent to [ninja]

It was sheer dumb luck. And I think I'll probably mostly just be doing grunt work, but I'm fine with that. I worked in a pet store once and the animals were about the only good things about my time there. I just hope it works out! *crosses fingers*

I don't even mind the grunt work. I just love being around animals.

And Foxy can always vent to me. [yes]

Thank you <3

Of course dear!

[hug] Heehee
So what's up?

Just sitting on the couch being absurdly sore. [lol]

I'm making an avatar for a friend

That sounds cute!

Okay, shower and bed for me.

Sleep well

Thanks hon. You too.

I'll try

Though this conversation was a page ago, I used to work at a Burger King. It was my first job.

It was a high stress job, kind of like the job I have now (work in the hospital, a majority of that time is in the ER). Though they were different kinds of stress. With fast food, you get stressed from your co-workers, the customers, and then your supervisors who you know won't like your drive through time. At least at my current job, my co-workers are awesome, and keep their cool in a majority of any situation I might be stressed out in. And I feel like I'm doing a great job because I'm helping people figure out what is wrong. Also my stress is mostly from not knowing how to do something, instead of not being fast enough.

I mean, every day I pray that I don't have someone stop breathing (I know CPR, but I'm still afraid of that moment when I will have to use it) around me, but there are some nice quiet times where I really can kick back and relax, rather than being on my feet all the time like I was at BK.

I'm sure it also helps that you get some appreciation in a hospital, Libra. I know that's made a huge difference in my past jobs!
