So, I'm sitting here at work...with my thoughts. And I was just thinking how unhappy I am. Working customer service jobs are hard. I remember back in the early 2000's that working retail was bad but it was sorta fun. As I get older I see more & more people feeling entitled. It's really annoying. I work 3 jobs because i'm trying to move out of the state i'm in. I mostly work in an area where mostly tourists comes to visit. People come from all over the state just to come to this rinky dink town. No matter what you do, no matter how much you're trying to present the best service its like these people are straight up assholes. It's exhausting mentally and physically. Its making me want to leave even more than ever. Dealing with Covid and being high risk is already mentally draining but to have people not follow policy of the company on wearing a mask and just being a decent human being is way too much to ask. I'm just tired. I'm tired of everything and everyone. I don't like feeling this way because I do enjoy working with people and helping people. But now it feels like its too much. I was quarantine for about 2 months and to be honest I was not looking forward to work. Why? Because I know people. I work with them long enough to know that most people that come visit this town is selfish. They only care about themselves and always looking for a way to not pay for a service that they had received. Eat the food and say "I don't like it" Stay in a room after upgrading them with no extra charge, "I'm not happy with my room I want a refund!" after they slept in that bed for 2 days they all of a sudden don't like the room. Buy a product and use half the bottle and claim they need a refund because they didn't like it. Things like this is what bothers me. At this point i think i need to not work with people anymore. I need to just work with computers or something. Something that doesn't involved with giving customer service. I feel like I'm the giving tree. Always giving, giving, giving. Then i'll just end up being a stump..with no use. I don't want to end up this way. Even though i do feel a little better writing this out...I'm still tormented with this feeling of unhappiness. I pray that one day I get to be that happy person that once loved dealing with people. But as of right now, I'm not happy with it. I do feel overwhelmed and need to get away from everyone.

I’m tired
I’m so tired of being the friend that no one likes. I’m tired of never being happy. I’m tired of never being the first choice....

Not good enough
I’m literally not good enough for anyone, my heart feels heavy all the time! I like so many toxic people it’s slowly destroying me. I just want to find that...
The trouble is that you are giving without receiving anything in return. This can be trying and tyring. No wonder you feel overwhelmed. Perhaps you can do a computer course after work hours so that you can get a job you like. There might even be a course online. Best wishes to you.
