Having a bad morning. I recently started a new job 8:45-3:30, after being forced to resign from a job (and colleagues) I loved because my line manager was bullying me.
Some parts of my new job are ok, but mostly I am not enjoying it and I’m absolutely shattered first week back after Christmas. I am looking and applying for other jobs.
I’m very emotionally exhausted ATM and DH asked me what was wrong this morning and that he feels he’s walking on eggshells, so I told him I’m knackered and don’t like my job. He ended up shouting at me that I have to stay there or get another one, which I know fulwell.
He’s great with the kids, brilliant around the house, but he cannot seem to cope with anything emotional. If I’m ever feeling down or tired and emotional, the way he reacts to me is usually the ‘straw that breaks the camels back.’
It annoys him, because to him everything is black and white - hate your job = get another. Can’t get another job = deal with the one you have and stop moaning.
I wish he could be gentle and kind at these times, instead he’s very hostile which makes the situation worse.
