Had a bad day? Get on the sympathy-train!

Really, REALLY stressful month at work for me... can't say too much as I know there are people in my company who read the forums but phew... I have never experienced a month like this... really high pressure. I need to get back to the gym and find a woman I think, my lifestyle isn't healthy at the mo and that can only magnify any work stress.

All sympathy appreiated.

*Goes to sort self out*
 
I've been quite stressed at work recently, today one of those days as well.

We are only a small team of people (4 including me and the MD) and the lack of common sense/initiative in 2 of them is really getting on my nerves, that has really been winding me up.
 
Had an interview for a really good job today, 2nd interview in about 5 months since leaving uni. Went really well, even they said it did.

Then I got the typical phone call, someone else better suited came in :/ Its taken about 100 job applications just to get 1 response, really positive then they say no, Ive sat here and sulked all day. Another day of doing squat. Followed by next week full of squat.

Don't worry mate I was once in the same situation a good few years ago... be patient and stay positive and something WILL come along. Follow every online job application up with a telephone call, very few people do this and it's a sure-fire way to get more hits.

You should be averaging a few interviews a month if you do this. Good luck. :)
 
I was at a lecture when the postman tried to deliver my new toy. But the sorting office is only open until 2pm each day meaning despite 'Allow 6 hours to collect' you cant collect. They used to be open 17:00 till 20:00 but recently changed that because 'we need to bring ourselves in line with other sorting offices'.

This has, obviously, ruined my day and I'm now a very sad panda.
 
After completing a project and delivering early to the customer, i have now been branded as the wonder child and have been given my next project which is making some changes for a public sector service to one of our apps which is possibly the worst written app on the planet. For most of this week, my soul has been pretty much destroyed from trying to understand how the darn thing works.

Thank god for a week off next week.
