Basically sucks. Not as much as being unemployed, and this, my friends, is a privilege that I need to remind myself of.
Don't get me wrong; I want to work. I hate feeling unproductive or idle. Which leads me to my next point... of detesting my job.
Okay let's back up for a moment. While I am so grateful to be working, and not depending on state money to sustain me, I do now understand why some people would chose to stay on unemployment rather than take a low paying job with virtually no satisfaction. I mean hey, you're making the same every week and you get to stay home!
No, I'm not saying I would rather stay home, or that I think that my job merits more than $10/hour (honestly I don't think it merits $5). What I am saying is that I long for a job that will make me WORK. I love feeling like I am doing something positive, or making some sort of difference in the work place. I like to be reminded that I am valued and could not be easily replaced by a monkey.
Here is the thing, If I am doing something that I am passionate about or get's me excited about the future, I will cherish those $10 like they were $100 because I know that I will work hard, do my best and (hopefully) grow and make more money later.
Goal for the day: find something to be passionate about.
