I really only have one thing on my mind today and that could be cuz i have massive headache and can only think of one way to get rid of it ;)

I feel like I complain a lot about my job. And the answer is: Yes, I complain a lot about my job.  But that's because I think I have good reasons to hate my job. In fact, these are the major reasons why I hate my job :)

1. I feel like I am constantly being micro-managed. I get asked at least one a day, if I'm logging my calls, if I was on time, if I am taking my breaks correctly, if its a slow day or a busy day. Frankly, I am a GREAT employee. I get to work on time, I do my work, I mind my own business, and I log everything. I think its very unnecessary to check up me. Newsflash: I AM RESPONSIBLE
2. My direct manager does not know anything about my job. Im sure this can happen at many job positions. But how frustrating would it be to have to teach your manager, whom gets paid more than you, how to do his own job?! Ya, welcome to my life.
3. Because I am sucha great worker, I am taken advantage of. Well, why not ask the hard working person to do more than she can. Train her to learn more, so she can do more. Its really not fair that the workers who dont know anything, wont do anything, and asked repeatedly to do their work, get away with a mickey mouse job (as my dad would say lol). Because they arent capable, they dont bother learning, and they suck at life, those of us who are great workers, get stuck with more to do
4. My job consists of helping partners get discounted pricing, and occasionally I help when partners cant access the partner site. I am the first level of support. I do not have access to all the tools. When things arent working properly, I have to escalate to my second level of support. BIG PROBLEM. They have no idea what they do. They make constant mistakes.  They dont ever respond back to follow ups. And, they also suck at life. But when partners call in to complain, who gets all the bullshit? The first level of support. Me. My team. It is so irritating and frustrating because I CANT DO ANYTHING. I didnt make the mistake. I cant fix the problem. And I feel so helpless. So worthless.

I do not want to continue working in this position for the rest of my life. And I have realized that if I dont do something about it, then it will be my only option. So I have decided to go back to school, get my degree in teaching because I want to be a math teacher :) Call me crazy, but I honestly feel like thats my calling in life. I'm good at math. I get it. And I can teach others how to get it :) 

Wish me luck. It's gonna be a hard and long journey. But I've finally found what I want. And I'm not gonna stop til I've got it :D I'm excited!!
