Does anyone else feel this way about their job? Or they have negative feelings about their workplace?

Maybe we can talk about it and know that we are not alone in this craziness?

I wish I could leave my current job and go somewhere else.

Yes, I hated working for other people. I started my own business a few years ago. It has its own set of challenges.

What do you do for a living? Is it the job you hate or the people you work with making it difficult?

I’ve had a few jobs that I absolutely despised. Retail and manufacturing. Awful. The people, the tasks. So petty and banal.

Luckily my foreverjob has folks I consider friends, great working conditions with a varied tasks and duties.

I work in reverse logistics.

The work itself is not bad. It used to be a great place to work, but corporate and the building I work at have changed the rules and environment so much over time, it's difficult to work.

We've been micromanaged. We have insufficient equipment and work space to perform our jobs. And they're watching our time.

They lie about money. They claim they are not bringing in much money but they somehow have money for whatever they want.

I used to work in retail too. I don't miss that rodeo. Customers that are awful to retail workers should be forced to work in retail and see our perspective.
