I made a mistake at work this week. Not a huge one. Not one that will cost the company any money, but one that will cause some hassle to some people. I have always had good reviews and feedback, and work for a nice company that certainly wouldn't be the type to fire for a small mistake.
Despite this, I have spent today worried sick that I'm going to be fired. To the point that I took some valium which I am prescribed for flying to try and calm myself down, and I can't eat. I realised that I spend my life with the constant feeling that I'm doing a terrible job, that I'm worse than all my colleagues, and that I am on the brink of being fired.
Ok, IABU (I think), but does anyone else constantly feel like this at work?
Sometimes myself and my DH work from home together, and I am always astounded at his confidence when I hear him speak on the phone, and when he talks about his ability to do his job.
How do I get that?
