Sitting in the parking lot at work, 545am, crying, knowing my boss will be late even though they asked me to come in early...

I know how physically and emotionally exhausting this can be , going above and beyond, receiving no recognition. Looking back , I wish I put more boundaries for myself in place and was more firm about them when I did try to implement them , especially in settings where I didn't see long term progression~transitionary jobs. Reserve your energy , physical and emotional , for what truly matters , as much as you can. I understand how in many cases of employment we do things not within our role, or pay grade ,simply because we want to continue having a roof over our head and a bed to sleep in . In these cases, there's helpful online advise from career advisors/HR personal, on how to say no and navigate setting your own boundaries, without risking losing your position. These have helped me a lot ,so they're worth checking out. I wish you all the best luck, know you are not alone , try to take it easy when you get home, and do something nice for yourself. When you are recharged you can plan on how to execute those things, with a clear mind and a rested body. Lots of love towards you today 🫂

Your friends recognize your efforts. All of them. It's sad that employers complain about not being able to find good help yet treat their employees like this. Please keep trying. People do notice. Perhaps you'll see positive signs down the road. Hugs!!!! 🤗

I wish I could say more than I hope you find someone even tho its not me and I wish the best for you, if you want you can message me directly and maybe we could be friends
