Should I quit my job?!


Question:

Should I quit my job?

I feel exhausted and my job is time pressure and I'm in front of the computer more than 8 hours. I don't get paid well, imagine to get paid only 280 dollars a month with deduction then when you get sick for days they only approved only one day and the rest of the days will be considered absent with deduction. And you wont get that extra money from incentives because your absent. And then you got annoying co-workers and passive team leaders. Then the director thinks he's better than anybody when he never tried online teaching, he tells how to teach when it's his first time to have that kind of job. Then there are demanding parents or students who wants to be called exactly on time not early, not late exactly which I prefer calling early because I don't want to be lately for my next classes which is a marathon classes. Sigh! I'm tired, I have more than 25 students a day. If I ask for a vacation leave, I don't think they will give me one.

I don't feel appreciated and I feel taken for granted. and the newbies are very disrespectful even if I'm ahead of them for than 2 years.

Wow... for a moment I thought to myself " Am I so stressed that I forgot I posted this question?" Then, I realized that someone was in the same boat as me..
It is stressful enough doing what we do (albeit I am the director of an adult day treatment for mentally disabled/ behaviorally challenged adults) without passive leaders, annoying coworkers who won't do their part and unappreciative people all around.
I have been blaming mine (maybe erroneously) on being 6 months pregnant... then I remember how I felt before pregnancy.
You are suffering from burn out. Even a vacation at this point will do only minimally at helping your situation. Study your alternatives and give it a good look. You may be surprised that you do need a serious change and maybe even a change in CAREER!
Best of luck... if you would like to email and rant, feel free! :) That always helps me! :)
