I feel really hard done by just lately :o( I work as a cleaner as I have done for the past 5 yrs which I loved at my other job as I had a great team and we all got on well. I've moved since then due to relocating to another area and I'm studying computing to try and better my life, just to motivate me/push me to do better but everyday just makes me feel more and more tired. I am not clever or experienced enough to do anything else that's why I am studying with OU. I work 5x a week, being on my feet all day for NMW. The money I get either goes straight into savings for our mortgage or I have to use it to pay for an unexpected bill.
Sorry I am complaining. I know we should be so lucky that I even got a job and everyone is so polite and lovely but I just think is this my life now? I've updated my CV and applied for so many other positions but I don't even get offered an interview. Every day I wake up at 6am, get ready, do a bit of studying, I take my child to school, go to work, pick him up, come home, make dinner, sort out laundry/do some ironing, some tidying, bath myself/said child, by the time that's all done it is almost 8pm then I have to sit and start studying but then I am too tired to concentrate then it is the same the next day. My husband does his best but he has been at work all day as he works all day full time in a job that requires a lot of "brain" work so to speak, so he needs to put his feet up as he has to leave early and gets home late.
How do you all feel motivated and just grateful! I should be grateful I'm able to save majority of my wages to save whereas people live pay check 2 pay check. I am an ungrateful sod...
