Retail; I love the interaction with customers, the control of my own money, and my friendship with my co-workers. The company actually values our opinions and wants us to excel so they can move us up if we wish to be moved up. That is awesome and I have already made a GREAT impression on my company and my customers which makes me feel great!
What I am having the most difficulty in are the loss of my weekends. I find that when I have down time I always think about my family and how much I miss them and I always think about my friends and how I wish I was hanging out or visiting them. I have such limited time that all of my side projects are now non-existent, cooking... forget about it, and John and me seem to never have enough time to do anything that we want to together while I am grasping to hold on to everything else I really love that is slipping away as well. It is SO frustrating!
I have been working out every morning to try and keep my mind fresh and I have a plan in the back of my mind that includes me going back to school in the spring to make this even less permanent. I admit, I have been spoiled by the three years where my weekends were mine and solely mine.
Is this a situation where I just suck it up because everything feels like forever away?
