aww Code, I hope you'll feel better X_X though I can't suggest you anything since I haven't worked yet (I'm still studying), but the facts you mentioned seemed to make up for each others' losses whatever (hard to explain) xD so actually from my point of view they look the same, but being lonely is not good, I don't know for how long you have been working there, but maybe they are just not used to you yet? and I think gettin double payment and working less, you should be happy about that xD though it's important to feel that you did work enough for your salary.....well I know this probably doesn't help you, but if you need someone to talk to, I'm here :3

Kimberly: hahaha ohh youuu, just come to me already <3

Bashar: hope you will feel better soon ;_;

Im honestly so sorry to hear because you seemed so excited about it, but just give it more time before you can actually say your old job is better.Maybe you are just a little uneased because its a newer environment. you shouldn't feel awkward leaving an hour before everyone else. You did the work you have the right to get the hell outta there. there should be no shame in your game. Lol and i'm sure with more time some of the decent coworkers will realize youre a good guy and you can have that stereotypical talk about you're weekend by the water jog. Also congrats on that pay DOE :ying:
But just stay confident. do excellent work. and everything will be fine :up:

If your co-workers have some sort of say in whether you stay or not, unfortunately, you do have to care what they think.

Bad perceptions have cost me raises and made for a rather hostile work environment lately - its not fun.

Code.


Walk out one day with a sick ghetto blaster, turn it all the way to 11, and play "Rock You Like a Hurricane" on your way out. Even if it doesn't solve any problems, you will forever be a boss.

Anybody want to watch This Is Spinal Tap? I've never seen it.

Also, I'm going to have a spinal tap done.

Also, some doctors think I probably have multiple sclerosis. >.>

Shit bubby, let me know when, and i will stream Spinal Tap for everybody.
I hope it's not what they think it is, though!
The Birds are using humanity in order to throw something terrifying at this green pig. And then what happens to us all later, that’s simply not important to them…

Spoiler :
I always thought I was a relatively strong person mentally. Except for the odd flip here and there at my family I generally never lost my composure or let my emotions affect my life but I feel like so much has happened in the past year or so and the accumlation of that is causing my mental health to slowly crack a little. I never used to do this but these days, I often find myself sitting, aimlessly staring into space just thinking. About what I'm doing with my life or about what I want to do in the future and I just don't know. I can't see it. I can't see where I'm going. I've tried making rough plans on paper but I always end up with nothing. The very thought of not knowing what I'll be doing in 2 years after I graduate from university terrifies me.

I'm not sure but if I were to guess the trigger for this, the cause is most likely my recent grades for a certain class. I'm not a genius or someone really smart for that matter but I've always prided myself in being able to get decently good grades when I tried hard. Not to sound arrogant or anything but I've always been getting relatively high scores between 70-90% though that number dropped to around 60-80% in university. Fine, I can accept that the work is getting harder as the years go by but I always knew if I were to actually try I could pick myself up from a bad grade so when I got my first 40% from a group project I was sad yeah, but not depressed because I knew I didn't try that time. It's when I found out I got 45% in the second group project for the same class despite actually trying hard that I finally realized that I was wrong and it scares me. To be honest, I've always been a bit of a slacker when it came to school work but for this second group project, I seriously tried my hardest. To the point where I would be up till about 3-4am each night just programming and then even when I went to sleep, I'd still be running code and solutions over in my head till 5-6am and it almost drove me crazy those few weeks. But even after all that hard work I put in, I still got such a bad mark. It really made me lose faith that I'll ever do well in this subject. And to think my overall mark last year for this subject was 81%, boy I've really gone downhill. By a lot.

Like it wasn't bad enough, this second semester we're put into groups again for ANOTHER group project for the SAME subject. I honestly just have no motivation to do well anymore so here I am sitting with another blank sheet of paper trying to write stupid specifications for a new project but failing to write even one word after an hour. To add to the pain, there's a group project for EVERY SINGLE ONE of my classes this semester, one subject actually has THREE GROUP PROJECTS, two presentations and an essay assignment. Seriously. And to top it all off, my family have been having their own problems too and I know I can't blame them for it but I really wish they'd think a little about my situation too. It really kills me when they ask me for help on something and I say no because I'm too busy trying to sort my own shit out and they give me this, "It's not as if I'm asking a lot of you. You're my daughter, I'm only asking for a little help, is it so unreasonable?" and the like.

I don't ask for much. I can handle my problems myself. If possible and I can do it myself, I rather not ask for help. I don't need you to fix my problems for me, heck I don't even need you to listen to me and share my worries. All I'm asking for is that you don't give me any more shit to deal with until I get my own sorted out. Is that too much?

I'm about to cry. Literally. Maybe that's what I actually need, a good cry. I haven't cried since my gran died last year. I wonder if the stress that's been piling up since then is causing me to be so depressed lately. I honestly just don't know what to do anymore.
I know posting this isn't going change anything but I'm hoping that by doing so, I'll be able to clear my head a little so when I read this tomorrow again, I'll realize what a dumb fool I was writing so much crap and pick myself back up again.

Thanks guys. :)

@Melee: I am so sorry. :( My thoughts are with you.

@Aimo: Things WILL get better, I promise. :) Just take some time, get a deep breath of air, cry if you want do, and just take things slowly.
