How stressed are you at work?

Question

Out of curiousity, how stressed would you say you are at work?

What type of work do you do? What are your stressors?

Answer

I work from home which is great, but also means it feels like I'm always at work. I receive emails at all hours of the day and night, and have to deal with people who think they're tough shit behind a screen and a keyboard - with my brand's reputation at stake with any wrong step I take or wrong thing I say. And my income depends on whether or not people feel like buying from me. Sometimes I have money to blow, other times it's either food or gas in my car. This year in particular has been really tough on me. Hopefully things get better once my season starts. Thank goodness my husband is getting a promotion and a raise soon.

I work at McDonald's... people say it's one of the easiest jobs you can get because 'anyone can get a job there' firstly, it's not true, and secondly, it may seem like a piss easy job but it really isn't. You have to deal with bitchy moody ass arsehole customers who insist their orders are wrong when they receive them just to find out 10 minutes later after asking for the manager that actually, they got exactly what they ordered for. You get abuse hurled at you when you literally just started your shift so whatever happened is not your fault but it's the customer that blames you and you get a warning from the manager because the customer is claiming it is your fault. Have you tried carrying 7 different drinks at one time in your hands and not on a tray? No. It's bloody difficult and takes practice not to drop them. I literally just learned by self teaching myself how to take a coffee machine apart and put it back together again in 5 minutes because a coffe bean got stuck somewhere it shouldn't have been. It's a lot more pressure than you'd think. You get these sterotypical teens in movies working at fast food restaurants 'taking it easy' even on a slow day when there's been maybe 20 customers in the last hour, you don't get a chance to take it easy. It's a piss take and I honestly wish I didn't get the job here
