If I can't be happy at a job, I don't want it. I want out of the field that I'm in but I need to make careful, calculated moves to get out. I'd listen to your gut. I've ignored my instincts too often only to find out that they were right. IP: Logged |

I'm missing something. Why did you get out of it? IP: Logged |

Very well said! I think anyone who makes a career change in this day and age has to be very careful before making a move. I want out of my field as well because the nature of the game and the politics have turned me off. quote: Originally posted by StubbornVirgo: Politics, drama, persistently bad morale, unsafe working conditions, people giving me a hard time because I'm over educated for the position...I thought it was just my last place of employment, but I caught a whiff of it today during a job interview. I'm glad I recognized it before I said "yes" to anything, but it just bugs me. I don't know what else I can do to make the kind of money I need for school.I also have a very very specific degree, so I feel like I'm kind of stuck in that field.
I don't think you are ever stuck in a certain field. Now, is it easy to move out? Probably not. Maybe in the meantime you can look for jobs that would help you support going back to school? It may not be easy but as long as you have a plan and have faith, things will work out in the end. IP: Logged |

I want to vent about living in MI. Half of the year it looks like depression outside. Grey skies, cold, blah and blahs. I think it really does affect my mood a lot at times. I do have a bit of water in my chart. If I'm going through a hard time, and it's cold and bleak looking outside, it really does seem to intensify feelings of hopelessness for me. Last week there was a day where it was sunny out, and I actually felt hopeful that everything was going to work out. Of course I have good things happen to me, but at times I feel like I am constantly getting sh!+ on. I have challenges in the spring and summer, but it easier to overcome it when it looks optimistic outside. Winter just really sucks, I always seem to be the happiest in the spring time. Yeah there is Thanks Giving and Christmas. But work and school are super hectic around those times just making it all stressful. and February, what is it about February sucking so bad? (I apologize in advance to all the Aquarius and Pisces) Feb 7th 2015 I got dumped, and was unable to eat an actual meal for a week and a half. I got sick over the weekend and had the flu, but by Feb 7th just a fever. Getting dumped feels awful, and having the flu feels awful. But at least the pain of being sick only lasts a few days. But I'm kind of seeing a pattern here. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Aquarius Sun squaring my Scorpio Moon and Pluto house 6. Talk about a power struggle. I work at a school, and I've been spreading myself very thin with school and work. I relate so much to the lunatic Gayle.

Same spot on my stomach/abdomens has been hurting the past 2 days. Stabbing, burning pains...I take so many meds it really wouldn't surprise me at this point. I'm sorry if I've been hogging this thread lately, I just don't have that many places where I can let it out without judgement. I think people look at me like I'm crazy when I say these things out loud.
Go ahead and hog it. I hadn't even seen that there were new replies.  Telling a Gemini Moon not to talk about what's upsetting them - yes! Cutting off communication completely, as well - expecting it to go away, when the issue will NOT go away until the other person or people actually help it to go away (and not by ignoring it). Also telling an Aries that something is water under the bridge, when it clearly isn't. One thing that is true of me sun sign-wise, is that I let most things go. I'm not a fan of grudges - so if something is still upsetting me, there is a very good reason for that. IP: Logged |

Oh. I've mentioned certain times of the year that really seem to hit me, as well. Just before Christmas is usually one (and Christmas day has had horrible transits for me for the past several years). I know what you mean re: the weather, as well. I felt good most of last week, when it was gorgeous, warm, and sunny outside. I felt happy, and a little bit hopeful - Spring is my season, and I love it. But that feeling disappeared over the weekend. - - - - - - - - - - I hope that one person complaining about this thread's existence, didn't put people off coming in here at all. If anyone needs to vent, go ahead. Unless typing it out contributes to any wallowing that might make you feel worse - I know that it can keep you stuck at times. But this thread was intended to contain it, so people should know not to come in here if it bothers them. Like me and threads about annoying natal placements in others.  IP: Logged |

I understand the attraction to new technology. Some like gadgets and whatnot. But is it that important to have one? That was the umpteenth time some people have tried to convince me that I "need" one. It probably wouldn't have been so annoying if they didn't become overzealous about it. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA so much angst. People like those make me wanna stay away from people - too complicated. Or maybe live somewhere like Tristan Da Cunha. What I've read about Tristan Da Cunha seem so dreamy. IP: Logged |

^^ yep. I am now having dizzy spells again, too. I have them on and off, but damn it I hate the room spinning. And if I'm stressed now, I don't want to think about what my life will be like in the future, when I'll be responsible for everything. Mum worried me last week, something else has me worried this week, and I'm feeling repulsive as well. And so very tired and sad. IP: Logged |

Please don't quoteI'm often encouraged to write. The ones who encourage me don't even seem to care what about so long as I write about something. (Though a love story has been mentioned. ??? Why me? ) I've been getting quite a bit of push lately. When I start writing, doubt creeps in. "I'm too wordy and not to the point" so I begin skipping things or "long story short". My grammar and vocabulary are not very strong. After that, nope. IP: Logged |
