After a(nother) week of getting my ass kicked every night, I sent an email to my direct superior telling him I was looking at other employment opportunities last night. I'm tired of going to work every night dreading how badly I'm going to get beaten up and wondering when the next (unavoidable) lawsuit is going to be filed.
Steps are supposedly being made to make things better, but they sound like too little, too ineffective, and designed to keep the profit rolling to the corporate office.
I'm tired of giving my all, hating my job (which is doing something I LIKE) and being told I'm an ungrateful, spoiled little brat by administration, the public and the legal system almost every day, it seems like.
If I could do it, I'd leave not just this career, but this country far behind and open a dive shop in the Caribbean.
<edit> Sorry, been a tough week, lost a few, won a few, but overall just feel like I've been beat with a bat (mentally and physically) for the last several years. I get 2 nights off, get to do a little more than just say, "Hi" to my son and my wife in passing, then I get to go back and do it again.
Feels like not just a rat race, but a rat cage inside a rat maze - all while cruel children poke sticks at you through the wire mesh. <sigh>
I'm sorry, I just feel the need to vent - I don't really have many (any) friends I see, so OSA is the only place I feel like anyone gives a sh|t. Except my wife, of course, she's great. I'm just sad this is what my life has come to.
Carry on, hope ya'll have better days than this.
