Out of control

Does anyone else feel like they are out of control at work?  Like everything everyone does is very annoying and you just want to tell them off?  I know its the hormones, but at times it feels like moments of clarity - like NO, I shouldn't be putting up with this, or NO you shouldn't be interrupting me whenever YOU feel the need.  Even before I get up for work in the morning, I feel defeated, like I just can't deal with the rest of day unless its at home with my dog and hubby, watching movies and eating.......LOL

  • I hear ya. I kinda feel that way too, but I work with kindergarteners. My patience is running low, but I'm sucking it up as best I can. It's hard. I really just want to stay home too.

  • Yeah, I got surprisingly feisty yesterday when someone was making a dumb argument to me that didn't make sense. Normally I am a push over and just agree to things that don't really matter to avoid drama. But, yesterday I was like no, that just isn't right. It was fun, actually.

    I also feel generally pretty worthless, though. I just don't have a lot of concern for work right now. I felt the same when I was pregnant with my son. You just realize how unimportant some things really are by comparison...

     

  • Every day!!!! I even marched up to HR yesterday to discuss a special someone that is beyond lazy and won't do their job and sets it on my desk telling me they didn't get to it. Grrrr... So ready to just up and quit!

    Not so much at work, but I tend to be more like this in my personal life.  I have so many crazies, egotists and *ssholes in my family and among people I know socially (many that I have to endure) that usually I just let sleeping dogs lie...the whole "don't argue with a fool because people won't know the difference."  But since I have been pregnant, I have felt a lot less like putting up with people's ish. 

    I even recently deleted my brother from facebook because he would not stop posting hundreds (literally hundreds) of posts (some of them really disrespectful) on my facebook profile that he knew went against my personal beliefs.  I asked him repeatedly to stop and he just kept on.  My DH's response was, "You know how your brother is..."  So he gets a pass for being an asshole just because he is always an asshole?  I don't think so. 

    And, last night, I actually got in a huge argument with a couple of people because they were posting things that were just factually incorrect about the ACA.  Someone had made an inquisition about the ACA (or, at least, that was my view of the post) and people were just blatantly giving her incorrect information.  Then I got blasted and called names because I was trying to help someone.

  • I actually think that is the whole thing - just can't let things slide anymore.  Most of the time I'm a pushover too, and I agree to things my hubby says I shouldn't, but I like to make people happy.  Lately its just not happening.

  • Yeah, I feel the same way. I think it's a combination of my pregnancy hormones and things are just getting more stressful for everyone at my work (big deadline looming, project not ready). It's like some people are just being so difficult to work with lately (it's not just me, non-pregnant people feel the same way around here) and combined with my lack of patience due to baby, I am like a dragon-lady sometimes.

    At this point not only am I anxious for Christmas because I love it, and I will be definitely showing, etc. by then, I really NEED the 2 weeks off!

  • ALL THE TIME.

    my department currently has nine people in it.

    five of them are now managers. FIVE. guess who does all the work while they go to meeting after meeting about who knows what? the four of us left behind.

    they spend meeting after meeting coming up with diffrerent ways to be up our asses monitoring how we do our jobs, while they can't even DO our jobs themselves.

    can't wait to be done with this place forever.

  • I'm such a pushover when it comes to my mom. I love her...but she's a bitch. Has no filter whatsoever, and I usually just brush off her constant nasty attitude or comments. Now that I'm pregnant. I'm not taking that shit! I don't care if I don't speak to her for weeks and weeks. I don't want to hear it. She was bitching about my husband not coming to a family party a few weeks ago (he had homework!) and I just hung up. Haha.

  • I definitely feel like I've lost what little patience I had to begin with. Then there are weird days where nothing bothers me and I'm able to tune out almost everything. Kinda like when Peter Gibbons get hypnotized in Office Space. I want that all day everyday.

  • About a month ago, I was an irritable mess for a couple weeks. Like road ragey, everything was annoying me, and I couldn't really stand to be around most people without aggravation. Now, I've graduated to a more composed version of it, which is a blunt/don't f with me attitude. I like this better.

  • I feel the same exact way! I'm almost in tears every morning over stupid things like not finding my socks. Then when I get to work I just want to sit and be left alone. Of course as a teacher it's absolutely impossible for that to happen. I think I'll be taking a day off in the near future!
  • omg YES. I cannot put up with anyone's crap anymore. One of my planners comes in late, is so lazy, I catch her taking 2 hour lunches. Normally I'm a pretty lax boss and will let things slide from time to time, but last week I had to put my foot down and basically put her in her place.

    Yes, but it was like this BEFORE I got pregnant. I seriously work with the biggest idiots and liars in the world.

    But now if I give people attitude for being an idiot it's because I'm "pregnant and hormonal"

    No, bitch, it's because you're stupid.

  • I'm right there with you. This morning has been especially bad since it started with my 2 yr old getting up at 5 and not wanting to go back to sleep! My husband was annoying me from the second he opened his mouth and I'm just all around irritable. It's a crappy weather here and I can't get motivated to do anything at work or tolerate any of my coworkers. I hate being like this cause I feel like an awful wife and mother. Hoping it passes soon cause I was NOT like this last pregnancy.
  • Yep, I am a SAHM but I watch a 20 mo old boy in addition to 17 mo old DD. I have zero patience for this boy. I am constantly frustrated and upset and feel like I'm yelling all the time. We had a nightmare trip to Target yesterday and I felt like I was going to have a nervous breakdown. I can't stand it! Arrrg!
  • Yup as soon as I'm done with my shower I just wanna curl up on the couch or in bed with the doggy and catch up on walking dead all day. Ugh work sucks!! Some girl left early (and I stayed late to cover her shift) because she was upset that her and the only other girl who don't know how to dispatch yet, were put on the schedule to train on the weekends to learn how to dispatch. We've all done out time taking shifts and working on our own... Don't expect to get babied! I hate whiny people who complain when they actually have to do their job. So waiting for the drama to fly in the office today!! Here's to hoping I don't say something that gets me fired!! Haha

    What is really pissing me off is that when you suddenly quit putting up with people's shit/bad behavior, then they are like, "Whoa!  Pregnant hormonal lady!"  or "Who peed in your cheerios?"  and act like the problem is with you!  Nope.  When you are an inconsiderate, asshat, douchebag as usual and I just finally qot sick of putting up with it. That is on YOU not me.

    Edit: Oops! Saw someone else just had the exact same sentiment. It must be going around...
