I don't want to go to work tomorrow because.......

I don't want to go... I'm sick of working.... My work bores me... I'd rather be at home doing homey things... I'm tired...

So sorry. Big hugs ❤️❤️

I have come to the end of a two week spell of leave, part of which was spent in Lanzarote. It’s my first day back at work tomorrow and I want to get it out of the way. I’ll be more with it on Tuesday.

Thank you for the reply!
I’ll happily have DMs from you to vent about work stuff!
they must use Nazis as a theme when having a go at H&S professionals. I’m often called Hitler 🤦🏻‍♀️

Because it will be Monday and a whole new week stretches ahead.

I’ve made the worst decision of my working life accepting this job, and I feel physically sick thinking about another week of battling people who don’t want me there and are waiting for me to fail.

Only another four months before I can move to another post and put this nightmare behind me.

Because last weekend I was ill and had to work through it, albeit from my bed. The week has been intense and full on with a lot of pressure and I've often felt like I couldn't breathe. Yet again this weekend, I've worked both days and I don't think I can face another insanely busy week.

Me too!
plus it’s open day, I’m struggling every day with the level of SEN in my class, I hate the science unit I’m teaching at the minute, I’m on break duty and I haven’t been food shopping so won’t even have a nice lunch to look forward to😭

I don’t want to go to work tomorrow as I’ve got terrible bowel issues being investigated at the moment and absolutely exhausted with it 🥴

Because it sucks. Everyone who was decent has left and I'm trying to carry everyone else. I'm tired and, honestly, I can't be arsed.

I'm seriously considering calling in sick for a couple days. I won't but I like to imagine I might

Because my house is a tip and I've had no time to clean it.
Because I have barely had any sleep this weekend.
Because I love my family dearly but I'm desperate for a day all by myself.

Because I’m just so so tired of it.
It’s so political and demanding.
I get zero time to ‘do’ anything during the working day due to people ringing me all day or a calendar full of chaotic meetings jumping from topic to topic. I finish at 6ish with a mountain of emails to sift through and actions from the day.
Then work till 10-11 most evenings and at least one day on the weekend.
I’m tired of always either working or in zombie mode recovering from working.
But I’d never get as good a job (pay/seniority wise) elsewhere and elsewhere could be just as bad. And I want this job. Just not in its current form.
Whew that felt good to write down.

Because I worked all weekend!
Not something that happens often but there was an event on - was actually quite fun and I’ll take TOIL later on in the week. I actually enjoy my job but I’m not long home and I’m kinda tired.

Like a PP, we too are short staffed- following a big round of VR (public sector).

Remaining staff are fed up, burnt out and resentful. My manager and I have to try and motivate the team to do more with so much less.

I hate my job now, which is a shame because at one time it was so good and the team were much more connected.

I don't want to go to work because I'm tired and I sick of people wanting things from me!

I’m so sorry, I know how hard that will be

Same here, I hear you. And because I'm public sector I get the double whammy of Joe Public telling me by default how all the ills of the world are my fault. Last week I was told I was a Nazi in a past life.

If you ever want to vent on work stuff feel free to PM me!

…. it’s my first day at my new job, and my first day away from my baby and I already can’t stop crying

Can I join please?🙋‍♀️

i don’t work Mondays so this is for Tuesday…

I don’t want to go to work because..

We have a new beautiful rescue puppy who has been abused, she’s only 11 months old. She’s underweight, small for her breed and missing some teeth😡We’ve worked so hard to gain her trust, settle her in, show her love etc - and it’s working! She does “kisses” now, wags her tail, and jumps for joy when we come in. She sleeps between us and plays happily with her toys.

On Tuesday, I have to leave her for 3 hours and I really want to just be with her. She’s the purest little soul… unlike the bitching, lying, backstabbing “ladies” I work with. She has everything, and more, and she’ll be fine without me for that time.
But I know I won’t be fine without her.

Because I’m massively over loaded and stressed and it’s all about the stats and management don’t care no matter how many people tell them they are struggling

Because I stormed out of the office 8 weeks ago saying ‘I’ve had enough of this nonsense’. First day back tomoz. Dreading the repercussions, but has to be faced. Am actively seeking other jobs, interview next month 😊

Same.

Because I'm a childminder and I have a particularly challenging 2 year old at the moment who uses all of my energy....along with a screaming one yesr old and a toilet training 3 year old.....
Pass the wine.....

I am 60 and retired. I was a Primary teacher. It will never , ever not be a total joy to me that I don't have to go to work ever again. My 2 grandchildren ( 3.5 years and 20 months) will be dropped off by my DIL at 7.15 tomorrow and we will have a fabulous day doing jolly things.

I’ve had a really busy weekend and been out the house all day yesterday and today so I haven’t done any housework and have fallen behind with the washing. Nothing is prepared for school/work tomorrow and I’ve caught a really bad cold. Another two days off would be great. One to just rot and rest with my book in the hope of fighting off this cold and one to catch up on my housework and laundry!

There’s a task waiting for me that last week’s me decided to put off until Monday because she didn’t fancy it. Fancy it even less now.
