Is This Healthy?

Is this common? I think so...

I had been hearing so much about this so I think it is a very common problem going on now.

What I am talking about is about work. I remember there was a time that someone asked me what happened to me after I came back from my medical leave? My answer to her is that I am sick... sick of work. During that time, I was ultra stressed with work so the answer was as truthful as I felt then.

Since then, I have been hearing a lot of people telling me that they are sick... sick of work. What is wrong? Why are so many of us feeling like this? Is it really work or is it just us?

Personally, I have my up and down days at work.

On my up days, I am happy that I am working in this company, A. I am happy that I have nice colleague which I can get along with. I am glad that I have understanding colleague who will help share my burden and complains at work. These are the days that I can't wait to come to work.

On my down days, it can be a hair-pulling exprience for me. The severity of the down days can go from complaining -> cursing -> almost crying -> the urge to just throw in my resignation letter. On these days, I can't wait to get off work of even throw everything down and just leave. Then again, I do not have the luxury to do that cos' neither am I rich nor have a rich father / boyfriend who can support me.

Solution for me and people like me:
1) Are you really sick of your work or are you just complaining cos everyone is doing that?
2) If you are really sick of your work, what is the reason behind it?
3) Are you the cause of it or is your company the cause of it?
4) If you are the cause of it, then I guess it's soul-searching time.
5) If the company is the cause of it, then you have to decide if the problem can be rectify internally?
6) If there is no rectification, then I guess it's about time you look for a new job. There is no point working in a place that you will be unhappy about.

For myself, I know really well what is the problem (but I can't put it into my blog lest I got sued ;-))
