Just need to post here for a rant! I just feel really frustrated and stressed with work at the moment.
This is basically my first full-time job, and I spent ages job-hunting before getting it, so I’m really grateful to be in the job and to have any kind of work.
I work in the Civil Service, but would prefer not to say anything more than my job involves working in a very high pressure role in a smallish team. Even when our team is fully staffed, the work is stressful and demanding.
Our team is meant to have a certain number of people in it, but a team member has been off sick (and won’t be returning) since December. Because of this, we’ve been down by one staff member since they left.
Regularly, other staff members have taken leave (leave granted by the people managing the team), so we’ve often been two people down (the person taking leave and the person who left in December).
So now, we regularly have situations where we’re doing our main job as well as the work of two other people split between us. We won’t have anybody new starting until at least April or May.
Any words of reassurance? I just feel knackered and frustrated.

To be frustrated and stressed?? Work-related.
