Face my job, I feel very dry. Every day repeat the same work, that's a torment. I can't bear it, but change job is difficulty now. First, my family can't agree with me, this is a big difficulty. I love my family. I don't want my parents for me to worry about. So, how can I do? dear friends, please help me, send me some suggest.

That is what we call ROUTINARY WORKS, whether we like it or not we do tasks repeatedly everyday because that's the nature of the job we have. Before making a conclusion of what possible action would you do to escape from this repetitions weigh things first & know what job you really want. Fix your mind now & learn to accept the repetitions in your life...That is how things going to be...:)

If you don't like your job, retrain as something else! Life is too short to be stuck in a job that you don't like. As for your family, communication is key. You need to chat to them about how you feel, and allow them to chat to you about how they feel. That way, you will both know how each of you feel.

Life becomes boring and a routine when we don't add any spice and variety into it. Why don't you try other activities that you can fit into your routines. You may add some variety in your daily activities by trying a new hobby for example. You can choose an activity that you are interested with like enrolling to a Gym or yoga class. You may also schedule some fun activities with friends and families during your common free time and rest days. Life at work is really boring sometimes. I feel the same way. I feel exhausted and so drained at times. When I'm already feeling that way I take a break for at least 15 - 30 minutes and have a coffee break with my very close friends at work. A nice conversation with them over a cup of coffee rejuvenates me at work.

I change my mind by thinking of things that are better. Or think of questions that would make me change my mind. Or ask someone what i could do other than the thing i am going to do.

If you're tired of what you are doing then I think what you do is not what you really want or what you love most.. you should know first what you really want for you to decide.. Yah , it's really hard to find a job now but I think as long as your not happy of what you are doing then you will not also be contented of what you have so think twice ..

if your concern is the repetition of work everyday then even if you resigned and choose other company to work with, same things will happened, as whatever position you will have you will still have the same job nor work everyday again and again. even if you say here in mylot, everyday is the same thing like responding post again and again. thats what work is, if its your first time job then you might think that way but once youve been working many years nor keep on transferring to other company its still the same. unless the problem is low salary nor if you have problem with your boss then perhaps that could be an excuse.

Hi, That is true.We should not hurt our parents.But as a practical solution of your problem i.e. you are not having job satisfaction,you should explain to your family about.And try to make them agree for a new job.But if in any way they are not agree with you then you might compromise with the situation and accept it.Try to relax your self with your liking activities after the job.

Maybe you just needed a break or a well-deserved vacation away from your job. and if you came back to work feeling the same way before you took the vacation then that's the time to look for another job. It's natural for your family not to agree with you right away, maybe they are just worried. So maybe it's best to look for another job and don't quit your present job until you've found a new/replacement. ^_^

i had the same situation sveral days ago,i understand how you are feeling now.i worked as a secretary.the work is boring.you have to do the same job everyday,and you can't get much respects from others.so i was thinking why should i have to bear those.i told my family that i want to change my job.most of them supported me and helped to find a new job. now i quitted my job and found a better job.i think you should tell your parents the truth.they will understand and help you try their best.
