Reducing The Amount We Stress About Work
In the past I have worked for companies whose employees have made my life unbearable. These work colleagues were completely two-faced, extremely imature and very annoying - the majority of them deserved a slap. At times I would even dread going to work and would feel sick whilst travelling to my office.
When I arrived back at the comfort of my own home I would basically be completely worn out and was basically like a zombie - my social life was virtually non-existant. I would then decide to go to bed early but would basically just lay their worrying about the next day. This could last for hours on end and at times would last all of the night.
Luckily I am now self-employed working within various sectors including offering Tesco Voucher Codes, cheap holidays and training for foster carers.
I have read that plenty of sleep is a good way at reducing levels of stress, the question is, how does one get to sleep in the first place?
There was absolutely no way that I was paid anywhere near enough for the amount of stress that I was being put under - there must be more to life than this, I used to think to myself. The people who I worked with, including the team leaders, did not treat me with as much respect as I felt I deserved. It has to be said that this stage of my life was not exactly the brightest; I even started to become quite ill - no doubt because of the amount that I was stressing.
I wanted to leave this company a lot earlier than the time that I eventually did, the problem was that I did not feel that I could afford to. I needed to think of a way of escaping this madness. There was absolutely no way that I could continue to work for these and with these idiots. As previously stated it had started to affect my health as well as my overall level of self-confidence. I started to save as much as I could possibly afford to on a monthly basis and believed that within 6 months I could be out of there. At the same time I started to think about the future. Which industry did I really want to work in? Would I be happier working for myself as a self-employed person? These were the types of questions that I was asking myself whilst at the same time attempting to find a new job.
On the day that I left this job, I will never forget my journey home. I could not stop smiling, I was so relieved that this nightmare was over once and for all.
