Job purrs requested
 
Nancy has been having an awful time of it with her job.

Her previous job, at a small local paper, had her working 60 hours per
week (on salary, of course). She transferred to a larger paper in the same
group, and it looked like things were to be better. But the parent company
did some internal changes, and now she's working 60 hours per week again.
On top of the silly hours, her boss and his boss are both expecting
ridiculous things of her (things they then make it impossible for her to
do).

We would appreciate some purrs that she will able to find a resolution to
the problems with her current job, or find a job tht won't drive her crazy.

Purrs on their way for Nancy and her job problems- she has my sympathy
(I have a colleague who makes me want to storm into the managers office
and scream "Me or him! Make your mind up!")

Purrs on the way! 60 hours a week is waaaaay too many hours, especially
combined with impossible tasks. I think when I lost my job it was a
blessing in disguise; I had no idea how totally stressed I was until I was
out of there. I still dream about doing the job which tells me a lot.

Same here. I am enjoying no deadline and no work-related stress.
But of course I miss the income and the health insurance I got at
work.


Of course there's that! But 2 years later, I'm still dreaming about it.
(And it's always stressful dreams, i.e. no matter how I try I can't find my
way to my office or the elevator just won't stop at that floor. It was
really giving me problems I wasn't even aware of.

I dreamed about my work too, more than 2 years later. But it was about
work I wasn't even doing during my last year on the job. I think in the
dream
I couldn't solve a problem or something. I was in software support.
People contacted us about the problems they had with the software we
developed.
