I am so ready to just quit my job.  But that would be really stupid.  I wish it didn't take  a lot of time to learn or develpoe new  skills to get a new job or a new career.  I am so sick of food service.  I feel like I have just dumbed myself down and that I have dumbed down my kids  idea of a good job as well.  I need to do something fast for my self to get on the right track  that doesn't include food service.  I wish I could  do something that was finger snapping fast and I could just say I give my 2 weeks notice.  EXCEPT I am tired of job hopping.  I spend time some where and it just is not what I wanted.  I feel like I have wasted time to just now figure out I don't like this lifestyle of working.  But what can I do and how do I fix this problem??????

Wow, I knew I would find someone on here feeling just like me. Everyday I get up to go to work I pray its my last day there. I have been at my job over 5 years and realized probably about 3 years ago just how much I hate it. Yeah it pays the bills (for the most part) but I want a job I love. Is that possible? Try to look at the positive. At least you are working, your children see Mommy is out there everyday doing what it takes to raise them. Don't feel bad, its money and its helping to pay your bills. What would your kids do without you there? I wish I could do something fast also, but like I said I been at my job what seems like forever and I just can't seem to find another job thats in the salary range I need. Figure out what job you really want to do and work toward getting the skills to get it, continue working your food service job until you get those skills so you can keep the money coming in and then quit when the time comes. I recently went back to college and got my CNA and CMA certificates and in maybe another year will go on to get my LPN, then I will be truly happy. But in the meantime just remember your kids LOVE you no matter what kind of job you have. They wouldn't have turned out so smart and beautiful if it wasn't for you!!! And they are too cute.
