Brenda,
So sorry to hear about that. It certainly sounds like you are doing more work than one person should bear, especially someone new. I hope things get better.

Brenda--new jobs can be very stressful as you're trying to learn the ropes and do everything. Four weeks isn't very long to have been at this job, and the postal service is notorious for stressing out its employees. It doesn't help that the time from Thanksgiving to Christmas is their busiest time of the year. Take a deep breath and give yourself a pat on the back for doing the best you can. Then let it go--all the tension, worry, frustration--just let it go. ask God if this job is really right for you. He'll give you an honest answer and you can take it from there. And you're right, having 13 puppies to care for is easier than working for the post office. Have a happy Thanksgiving.

Pretty Tacky taking off for vacation before the new person can have a day or two on her own. That's the way the P.O. works though. You will be doing it blindfolded before you know it. Hang in there. The perks are well worth the effort. Do you have any rural carriers delivering out of your office?

Lifes not about the breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away.

P.s. I've been playing around with the spelling of my name ( weird I know) and I've decided that I will stick with Hannah for good. Sorry I got you all confused. Hugs!! |

Praying for you to have the mind of Christ. He knows how everything works. Hang in there, they should have given you more training time before throwing you off the deep end. When I started as a paralegal where I am working now they thought they needed a bill collector. Wrong! I spend an entire year living in abject fear. I have worked here for over 20 years now.

Brenda, praying that you can find some peace and shake off that job when you get home. It is unreasonable of them to expect you to handle everything, even if you knew the ropes, it sounds like more than a one person job. I hope you have a nice relaxed Thanksgiving and recharge a llittle.

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Brenda, I am so sorry you're having so much trouble with this job. And it sure isn't worth making yourself sick over it. It seems like they need to make some changes in the PO or they will never get good help. Wed. you need to take a long time by yourself with a big ole cup of tea or good coffee and just RELAX! Poor gilr. I really hate that you had such a bad experience there. But don't worry, you just have a few more days there. You can do this. Just Farmgirl Up and Plow Through this!
Hugs, Kris
Happiness is simple. |

Brenda, Bless your heart! I will be praying for you in the next two days especially - The PO should have never done this to you - you have done your best, and the PO didn't treat you fairly!
Big hugs,

Hey Brenda. Just wondering how you made it the last few days. Are you ok? I bet you are just resting right now. Please let us know how you are.
