What do I do next? I feel so lost!

Hello serenity!!! Well such moments come up in life sometimes. The more we learn to cope with such situations the more experienced and strong you become in life. It seems that you really need the money and so you can't quit your job. It may be difficult thing to do to work hard in the office and again attend the schools regularly, plus you are attending the final semester of the college and so it seems to be very much important. I have not really been with such difficult situation myself. But the problem of lack of money has come up in my life several times. I am still dependent on my parents, and I know how hard it is for the parents to come up with the large education bills. Luckily I am getting scholarship and don't need to pay more as it needed. But still, we have to pay, its not the full scholarship...I am an engineering student and still I need 2 and half years to graduate. Sometimes, I feel like I find a job and work on. I know, how hazardous it would be for my study and so my family would also allow me to do some permanent jobs. And for this reason, I am here on mylot, at least trying to earn some pocket money... This seems to be even tough in your case. I can only suggest you to be patient under such difficult circumstances and wait for the time to graduate. I hope you can have nice job then. Patience is the greatest strength friend. You still have the happy life forward after this difficult moments... Wish you for the nice future...Happy mylotting...

Oh,it's really hard to you.You must be an excellent girl!In my opinion,it is more important to finish your college. I know the life is tough for you and your mom.But study is important for your future.All in all,whatever you decide,I think you are a good girl.I will support you. Hope you a good luck.

I'm so very sorry you're in this situation. How hard it must be for you. I wish I had the magical answer to make everything better for you and for your Mom, but I don't. The only thing I can suggest is that you look for another job while still employed at your current one. Hopefully you can find another job that you will enjoy that will also fit your school schedule. Good luck to you.

Hi and I am sorry you are going through this You need to give yourself the best opportunities you can. Getting burnt out at your young age does not seem to be the way forward. I think the other frustration is the feeling of being trapped by your current situation. What you need is a plan and to work towards it. Unfortunately, there is no overnight solution to your problem. You need to think about what your strengths are and how to best monetize them. You are currently in school. DOes this give you training for any job you could do when you graduate. Think along those lines Get yourself a 5 year plan and within that 5 year plan a 1 year plan. When the focus is on what you are going to achieve, the journey there seems a little easier

Hi serenity! I am into this situation now where i don't know what to do next. But i won't go into that and help you out of your problem. First of all you need to know whats the priority. Your priority is to support you and your mom till you graduate. You need the money and the job because it matches your schedule and pays you enough. Keep looking for new jobs through contacts,but remember,after your graduation you will surely land up a good full-time job. Hopefully till then you have to cope up with the job you are in right now. If you can afford to leave the current job without getting into a new one,it will be tough for you as you yourself stated. Its better to look at the bright side of things and know that you are able to support yourself with adequate finances with the job you have now. Talking of their not following labour codes ,you can try to get your way by making good relations with the management. Try to be nice so that they reward you in turn. Just be calm and carry on with it.Who knows you might land up a good part time job if u keep searching. Just don't give up and be disturbed by these little factors. I know its easy to say ,but when its the question of bread and butter ,you know what is to be done! So the word is'Fight your way and don't feel lost'. As long as you are earning ,consider it a boon and dont stop searching for a new job! Good day!

Hmm its bad to hear that, but dont loose hope. My suggestion is for you to have a break even for one day or two. If not even for a minute just be in a corner for you to think what you really wanted. Stay focused. You should not quit, don't be annoyed with what is happening right now. Breath then relax.Then that is the time that you have to think. Prioritize what is important for you, your mom, your studies, to earn extra. Dont bother yourself with the negative thoughts because you might fall down with your plans. Be brave and find something that will make you interested in whatever job you will get. Pray harder and do the leg for work. Because only those people who are worth it who are blessed. Good Luck and be safe.
