5 Ways to Deal With the Worst Job Youve Ever Had
5 Ways to Deal With the Worst Job Youve Ever Had So you woke up this morning and came to the conclusion that you hate your job. In fact, while you dragged yourself to work, you came to the realization that itââ¬â¢s the worst job youââ¬â¢ve ever had. Maybe itââ¬â¢s your boss, or maybe you simply donââ¬â¢t like your actualà job responsibilities- but even so, unless youââ¬â¢re rolling in the dough or you donââ¬â¢t have any bills to pay, you need money and likely have to stay. So how do you deal with the worst job youââ¬â¢ve ever had? Here are 5 steps to help you keep your job and your sanity.1. Buy a Punching Bag If you have space in your house or apartment, definitely invest in a punching bag. It will be a great way to unleash your frustration at the end of the day. As an added bonus, if you hate your boss, feel free to tape a picture of his or her face to the punching bag and go to town. Donââ¬â¢t worry, your secret is safe with us.2. Visit Your Local GymIf you donââ¬â¢t already have one, get a membershi p at your local gym. Whether itââ¬â¢s lifting weights or running on the treadmill, exercise can be a great way to detox and rid yourself of all the extra tension and angst built up during the day. When you exercise, your body releases chemicals known as endorphins that trigger a positive feeling in yourà body. The production of endorphins also helps combat depression.3. Go Out For Happy HourNothing takes your mind off from your crappy job like half-priced drinks and impaired judgement. Go out with your co-workers or friends and just forget your problems for a little while.4. Imagine Your Bossââ¬â¢s Demiseà à Assuming you donââ¬â¢t like your boss, envision his or her demise. Whether itââ¬â¢s strapping them onto a missile and shooting them into the sun, or DESTROYING them in a game of ping pong, the point is, have fun with it. As long as you do not act on your impulses (except destroying them in ping pong that would be awesome), such daydreaming might put your mind a t ease and release some stress and anger. It might seem unorthodox, but letââ¬â¢s be real, weââ¬â¢ve all imagined our bossââ¬â¢s demise at one point or another.5. Plan Aheadà It sounds clichà ©, but itââ¬â¢s necessary- all of the previousà steps will only help you temporarily cope with the stress and anxiety of a job you hate, so itââ¬â¢s imperative that you plan for the future. No one wants to work foreverà at a job they hate. Itââ¬â¢s crucial that you dust off your resume and begin applying to new jobs. The sooner you start, the better it will be for your overall health.
