My husband is sooooooooooo unhappy at work. he has become VERY VERY depressed. It is just so sad to see him like that
They treat him HORRIBLE. He would from 7-5 with no lunch break! They won't let him take a day off (he works monday -saturday) because if he isn't there they have to work instead of just watching him work. I feel sooooooooo bad. I know the only reason he is still there is for me and the kitties.
I found a job for him to apply for but it will be for less pay, less hours, further away and second shift. We would see each other less and he would make less but I think he would be happier here. A friend of a friend works there and really likes it.
I'm willing to make life style changes just for a chance to see him happy. I need all the board magic you can muster that he will get this job (or another job) very soon. I am so worried about him
He came to my work today and I swear It just didn't even look like him. He just lays in bed and snuggles the cats when he cats home. He is so sad
And I just want him to be happy again.

I SO understand what Rich is going through! I was in a job situation where I was so miserable, under-appreciated, and over-worked. Although it isn't the same since he does more physical labor than I, it just wears you down until there is no thought beyond "I have to do this" or "How can I get out of going to work today? Oh wait, I can't"


I hope Rich gets this job. I lost mine, and even though I was out of work for 3 months, it was such a blessing! I never imagined that not having a job could be less stressful than being stuck in a bad one, but it was. I ended up with a lower paying job to begin with, but since then I am now making more than I was before (because they APPRECIATE my hard work!), and I really like going to work. A change to a better company will make all the difference in the world!

Many positive vibes for him to get this job!!!!!

Rich has a job interview tomorrow!!!!!
My bosses wife knows a place that is hiring and she got him an interview! I really really hope he gets the job! This would be alittle closer to home, 40 hours a week, full benefits, alittle less money but we will have to make due
I just want to see him happy again! Thanks for all the vibes guys, I'll let you know how it goes tomorrow!
