Have any of you felt so tired coming off from work? I never felt so tired this past week coming off from work, I'm not sure why and maybe because I'm losing interest on what I am currently doing. I'm trying to convince myself to like it but it's not seem to work out. I have requested for another type of work but still not hearing response from my team lead. Have you experienced this?

Yes all the time but last week was very intense at my full time job and then I worked a 12 hour shift yesterday at my part time weekend job. I am thoroughly exhausted now. It really takes a toll on you.

I agree, there are really times when we work so hard that our body becomes exhausted.

I work at a water park as a supervisor and I ended up working two doubles followed by a morning shift. On top of that I was doing Coolers for 3 of the 5 shifts....we store peoples coolers and then carry the coolers out to them when they are hungry. Some of those coolers weigh over 50 lbs and its hard work that Im not used to anymore. I was exhausted and told my department that I wont do any more doubles for the rest of the season, lol.

And what did they say? That must be draining physically. But still good for us people who have work since not all of us do.

Tired enough that I was damn near admitted to the hospital, to be followed by a visit to a shrink... the job was not only physically draining, it was emotionally draining as well.

Sorry to hear that. Have you thought of changing careers or find another job?

Yes, I sometimes fel very stressed at work. Maybe because I am on my new job and I am still trying to familiarize myself with how things work on my work environment.

I think every new employees feel that way. I felt that way also when I was still new. I'm not sure what's going on around and still not familiar with the regulations, making it stressful at times thinking.

I think we're in the same situation. I can't afford to leave the company since i have no other means of living. And before we were told that after 2 years we can choose to be with other teams wherein there is our interest, but that's not happening since they said that i'm now the senior guy in our group and they can't afford to have me out of the group.

yes since i am working with pre school children it was a tiring work, we should see to it that everybody are in good health before they go home, need to dress them up, help fixing things with them, teach them some practical life activities like shoe lacing, tying, folding , buttoning, very tiring work, but since I love my work its been an inspiration to me seeing some children that are learning how to do practical life activities, even reading and counting and also singing. Such wonderful children i love them very much so even though i am tired it will easily vanish since that my love.
