I try not to let anything stress me out because it gives me migraines. But waking up each morning, preparing to go to a job that is stressful is not good for my health. Don't get me wrong. I am blessed and thankful to even have a job in the tough state the economy is in. I'm even handling people's finances which is my dream. I love numbers. I love crunching budgets. I love calculations. I love helping people manage their money. I get paid a nice salary (not commission or hourly rate). But is it worth the stress? How many of you out there are not satisfied with your job, but deal with it?
I'm very successful for my age. Associates Degree in Banking/Finance. Bachelors Degree in Finance/Business Administration. Valedictorian of my college graduating class. Shouldn't jobs be seeking me out, and not the other way around? Maybe all I need is patience. Its truly a gift to have. And a trait I did not inherit. When I want something, I want it immediate. And right now, I want a job thats less stressful. No unrealistic goals to meet. Co-workers that I can enjoy working with everyday. A more lax environment. Casual attire, so I can stop trying to find an outfit to match one of the few blazers I own that sit idly on the back of my chair. Customers who are not rude. Better yet, I don't even need to work with the public....stick me in a department behind the scenes. Is that too much to ask?

LaDontai!! (I'm used to calling you Angel Marie, even though we haven't spoken for a while). I have the job with no members of the public (can't get near the building), no dress code, people you can talk wit all day and believe me there is still stress! I'm waiting for the perfect job to fall in my lap, just thuggin it out until it does. One day it'll happen girl!
Your old friend, Lizzie
Lizzie, it sounds like your job is the atmosphere I am looking for: no members of the public and no dress code. One day you and I both will find our dream jobs. Until then, we just gotta work it out girl!
