I love my job, and hate my job depends on the day you ask me LOL. I am a full time mom, and full time student, and sometimes the two don't mesh well. My youngest is 12 and life is pretty easy with him. My two oldest are teens, and life with them is a rollercoster of up's and down's with lots of drama. Never a dull moment!!!!! My oldest knows everything in the world their is to know and is never wrong, and he is driving me insane. I tried to turn in my resignation this morning lol, but they won't let me quit.....so I guess I will try to ride it out until it grows out of it.

I totally understand, my daughter will be turning 16 in 3 weeks and the Attitude she has is out of this world. School is going to be a breeze compared to her.

Add me to the list of people with sucky jobs. Seriously today has been the worst. I've been here for 6 1/2 years. Please, oh please oh please let me get accepted into NS next Spring. I cannot stand being in this place.
But I will say - its nice to know there are others out there who hate their job too. Maybe we should have a Vent post where you just let it all out. LOL!

I hated my job. That's right, past tense. My boss was a monster and it made me edgy and prone to mistakes, which made him scrutinize me more which made me more anxious and more mistake prone. Loooooooong story short, I was fired and I am collecting unemployment. It. is. awesome. I knew the job stressed me out but I had no clue to just what extent it effected other areas of my life. I feel like a weight has been lifted. Even some stress about money and making ends meet just does not compare.

I don't hate what I'm doing now. I have a great employer and love what I do, but just cant stand a few people I work with. I guess you find that everywhere you go to anyways. But the only thing is I don't see myself doing what I'm doing for the rest of my life, I want a rewarding career that will lead me somewhere in the future. I guess job stability is what I want, and being able to help others makes it even more rewarding. Have been a PCA before, and I find it satisfying at times and there are times when it's not so much. It's all the same no matter where you go, but how you make of it. Well good luck to those of you who are waiting for school to start and for those who are still applying.

I'm a mommy to my lovely 2 year old daughter and a wife, also working full time, and going to school full time. Forgot the actual words, but I always remember the saying "Life is only what you make of it." So it's understandable to those who have to work to maintain their finances (bills, etc.) and those just to get by. GOOD LUCK and CONGRATS!!!

I currently work as a CNA overnights on an Alzheimer's unit at an LTC facility and I like my job but was afraid I'd have to drop down to part-time once I (hopefully) start NS in August (have not received acceptance letter yet--expecting it within the next couple weeks, but pretty confident that I'll get in). Reading this thread I see people are working full-time and going to school full-time, which tells me it can be done (the nurses at work tell me that you can't go to school and work full-time concurrently).

Don't give up hope!

16 is probably the WORST age for a girl...I was the same way with my mom. I don't know how she put up with me from ages 15-17. Now I'm 22 and I consider my mother to be my best friend. Don't worry, she'll grow out of it.
