My Jorb Sux
I can NOT deal with the new job.
I can't deal with my life.
And when I was stupid enough to ask my older brother for advice- to tell our mom that I was quitting the new job...
He mentioned that I was being irrational.
I told a friend of mine that I called- and he pointed out that calling my older brother was irrational, which I guess it was.
But right now my big fear is that my irrationalness will turn into acting on my suicidal thoughts.
At the gift store I was able to think that the job would be better if ONLY something bad happened to Kenny but at this new store… it all sucks.
I can’t deal with the fact that I have a master’s and my job is basically buying video games and electronics from thieves and druggies.
I hate my life.
Addition:
My brother called me after I wrote this, I answered his call- he told me that he felt it shouldn't matter to me what our folks thought, that x-mas was just a construct, as was marriage. He went on to suggest that I try to get my old job back or just keep at the job. I then told I didn't really want to think about it... he suggested that we talk about something else. I told him I just wanted to be left alone. Said goodbye and then hung up.
He then called back and told me that I should be MORE THANKFUL to him for him 'wasting' 15 min. of his life.
I told him I wanted to be alone.
Called a friend to tell him how stupid I was for even THINKING of calling my brother... and then unplugged my phone.
So I've added the older brother tag... and even though I then read a book for a bit... I'm still thinking about him and the job...
And trying to decided exactly WHAT I'll regret doing by friday.
I can't deal with my life.

I don't know how to console you on the family woes but if, in the worst case, your joblessness calls for you to need a place to stay, you're always welcome in our spare room

Actually the worst has been my brother... though i haven't spoken to my dad yet.
I was surprised that even my Dad's current wife sounded supportive- she's worked retail and while she's often, like my dad, sided with management against me... she understands how cruddy retail is.
My mom wants to see me, and has expressed a willingness to help pay for career guidence. Heck when I mentioned if I had to stay at the job longer- I'd have to go into threapy, she said if I felt a need to go into therapy she'd pick up the bill.
So I'm ok... but I REALLY do want to thank you for the offer. It means a lot to me... so I'm not going to make ANY jokes and just say thank you.
