    How to deal with 8 hour+ work days...?

    I need to ask. What do you do and how did you get there?

    New Pizza Delivery Job. Need advice.

    Time for an update. On my first day of the job, I really enjoyed the people I worked with. My manager, indeed, was very sympathetic as he had a family member with asperger's. Dream job, right? Right. But, there's a sting in the tale. A few weeks ago, my doctor prescribed to me 25 mg of Zoloft...

    How about "customer service"? There are plenty of jobs that ask for more than a year working with customers, and this is one of them. :/

    What are you doing now? Do you enjoy your hours?

    How to deal with 8 hour+ work days...?

    That's insane! 21 hours overtime?! No man should be pushed that hard. How did you recover from the strain?

    How to deal with 8 hour+ work days...?

    I'm always looking to try new things that I might enjoy. However, the one thing that scares me away most of all is companies that have you on extended shifts or mandated overtime. I read how the 8 hour work day has become an antiquated system, and that people get more work done when they aren't...

    Meditation and Mindfulness

    Humor is very important, I agree. I wonder if there are any exercises to make the best out of bad situations this way.

    Meditation and Mindfulness

    1. Obvious, but eating more greens is definitely needed. 2. I got cats. Those work, too, right? 3. Working on a new program to do at least 30 minutes or more. 4. Calming video game music ought to do it. 5. Now this is a big one for me. I don't know WHY I behaved today the way I did, other...

    Meditation and Mindfulness

    You misunderstand. It's not that I'm not being kept from working. Far from it. My dad wants me to work, and I agree. But, when I tried to contact the SSA about the earned wages from my other short-term delivery job, I let out sensitive information about me moving from my representative payee to...

    Meditation and Mindfulness

    Last night, I had the worst fight with my mom and dad over my new job and letting social security know what I was doing. Long story short, I was howling and wailing on the floor and uncontrollably sobbing. Throughout the day, I just kept crying until my body shut itself down. I went to my room...

    I don't think I do, but those are good ideas.

    New Pizza Delivery Job. Need advice.

    No problem at all. What happened was that my routine was this: I got up at 5, take an hour to get ready, drive an hour and a half to work in the worst commute to Nashville. Stare 10 hours at computer camera and hope to get some interaction with people, go an hour and a half at home, have an hour...

    New Pizza Delivery Job. Need advice.

    I'll certainly try, but I first need to find out what their policy is for folks that have personal car insurance and not commercial. I don't want to get shafted by that. :/

    New Pizza Delivery Job. Need advice.

    What mindfulness training did you go through? Where might I train? Also, all right, I trust you. Where would I hide my wallet when I'm driving, though? My glove compartment? I want that so badly. I really do. I'm just overly cautious...
