I just really feeling down and fed up with my job and having alot of work put on me for not much more then my colleagues who are furloughed. Before furlough I had a pay rise due to minimum wage 28p more then my colleagues who have alot less responsibility I am a deputy and senco I then got taxed pretty much that amount which would have made me slightly better off. I am now working 5 days per week doing extra work due to staff off whilst they work for 3 days from next week and are then furloughed for the 2 days. I'd rather have a day off but have been told no as I'm needed, basically because I'm good at my job I feel like I'm getting shafted to do more work even some of the managers load!! Then add to that my kids are home schooling and fending for themsleves (mum guilt), we can't go out at the weekend as such1 so I feel like now it's work, work, work and nothing to look forward to. I feel like furlough has made me resent my job and crave for better work/life balance and to work in a job where I'm appreciated. And yes I know I'm lucky to have a job but just feel so down and miserable about everything.
