Author Topic: work is isolating  (Read 516 times)

sorry forums i'm a bitch with my issues but you guys are the peps that are around my age level you know.

work is extremely isolating. I work on the weekends from 12-6 at a restaurant that faces out towards the food court in a mall. I don’t have much job experience, and I have only been working at China Max (the restaurant) for 4 months now. It’s not a challenging job, just a extremely boring and isolating job. My coworkers are these grown asian people who don’t speak english very well it because of this it turns into many mis-communications. I’m a cashier, and the boredom and isolation has really started to make me not focus in work. school is actually much better because you get to interact and feel like you're making progress. I see a friend occasionally but almost all communication is between me, the customer, and my coworkers. I can’t relate or be social with my coworkers and I’m way younger them most people i serve so i don’t normally talk to them either. It’s 6 long hours of standing in the same area and getting demoralized when your boss picks on you because of this or that. You can’t check your phone, sit down, or have a break. And your freedom of privacy is extremely limited because you're facing a food court

please help forums I like having the money and having a job on the outside but inside it becomes so bad that my behavior breaks into relationships with others. I know having a job is supposed to suck but this feels really unhealthy and bad for me.

what should i dooooooooooooooo



Work somewhere else in the mall like maybe a clothing store or whatever place you think you would like. Odds are you'll work with more people, have more freedom to interact with others, and walk around more.

problem is I'm 15 and finding another job ain't to easy for me or atleast when I first tried finding a job

but yea your right I'll try to find a more free job


read up on memes before you leave so you have funny memes to think about all day

well first we need to establish a class consciousness, so jot that one down

Yeah, same thing here. I've had coworkers that were decent guys, but I couldn't even speak to them.
There's literally no reason for America to not have a national language.

take time to ponder the meaning of life

Are you being pressured to have a job at 15?
