I am so sick of everything. Every day is an up and down. People are so fucking mean and self centred - nobody helps anybody anymore. I am so frustrated. I am thinking of quiting my job and getting a job serving or something - I am so confused - blah

sorry just needed to vent

I have never waitressed or anything before - is it hard?

It can be hard, depending on the place.

The rule of thumb for serving is busier/more stress = more pay/tips.

mmm, it can be. My friend was a manager of a restaurant and there was an incident where the owner was sleeping around with one of the staff. Later it went to court and she was summoned as a witness. There's politics where ever you go, it's just your choice to pay attention to it or not.

EXTREMELY

and if you can't stand working with self-centred people, imagine catering to their every need and bringing them food when you would rather destroy them

also when you come home from an office you don't smell

ding ding! That is so true...some customers are great and so polite..but others are exactly as quoted above.

and I always smell like a restaurant when I get hoome from work..my hair..clothes..bag..everything..yuck!

But usually the staff is great fun.

BUt TONS of politics.

meh. a job is a job unless you really love it.

Fuck.

I wish I could drop everything and run.

I HATE my job.

Ugh.

It depresses me, especially when I watch the clock tick by.

yup, and then sometimes you get those stupid punk kids who come in a nd don't know what a tip means. My friend was left with a .15 cent tip. Way to go, if they had dug any deeper she might have gotten some lint!

Give your fucking head a shake.

What is the real frustration? PEOPLE AND HOW THEY ACT/HOW THEIR ACTIONS PISS YOU OFF.

I suggest you either learn to ignore people's bullshit, not expect other people to embody whatever personal code you have, or get a job where you don't have to work with humans.

This is really true.

Most people are stuck in jobs they hate. The key to not hating your job is finding something you enjoy doing and making a career out of that. There's always an option. You just have to find it. It took me forever to find what I like doing, and you know....it might change, but right now I am happy where I am!

going from sitting on your ass at a cube all day, to standing on your feet running around in and of itself would be a hard adjustmest

I totally agree btw.

A job is something to pay the bills.
A career is something you love and do for a living.

probably a good one though. I sit all day here, and thank god I go to the gym after work 3 times a week, or go for a walk or something so that I am not sitting anymore.

well you basically just answered your own question. You know what you want. You know how to get it. You just have to find a way to put up with it.
