What I Intend To Have From A Job

(okay this is because of my therapist, she said that it might help me focus better on what i want for a job, so here goes)

by the way the reason that i am doing this is because my job right now is intolerable and i cant stand it. i am looking for another one right now, and have an interview on tuesday morning. which is great. the bad thing is that to go to this interview i am going to probably be about 2.5 hours late to the job that i have. and they are already mad at me about my attendance which is unfair because going by their attendance policy i am okay, but they are deciding that my attendance has a pattern and that is what they are upset about. (and mind you of course, most of the days i missed were due to illness which i can prove, then 2 were due to a car accident, and then others were because my apartment got condemned because of damage from the hurricane.) so anyway they told me that if i missed a day this month that i was going to be written up and most likely that it would be my final notice. so i guess we will see what happens if i am late there. because i have to get out of this job, it is stressing me out so much that with everything else that i am always stressed about, it is unmanagable, and then on top of that they are really treated me (and some other people too) badly. i just hope that i dont get fired from this job without having another one. that wouldnt be good. especially considering that my "husband" just called me and told me that where he is working gave him 4 days off next week, so basically he is not on the schedule for 2 days that he should be, and considering that he is hourly that isnt good. and then he told me that apparently the boss was going to fire him (which he claims that he doesnt know why, cause he said that he doesnt do anything wrong) but that he had decided not to, and that is why he had only given him the 3 days to work. i dont know what to do anymore. this is the only job that he has, and he is barely paying his share of the bills with it. i am making myself completely broke, and taking money out of my savings just to buy groceries and things we need for the house. because he claims that he cant help me like he originally said that he would. and now this job is cutting his hours. i really dont know how much more of this i can take. i do know that if we get evicted because of him, we are done and i will be filing for divorce this is like his third, fourth, or fifth (i dont know i lost count) chance. this is it.

anyway, enough ranting again, my things i would like at a job:

a kind and understanding boss.

leniance with attendance

able to request time off and most of the time get it

privacy while working, not having everyone in your business

a view, able to look outside

NOT VERY BUSY OR STRESSFUL (very important)

at least 2.50 or 3 dollars an hour more then what i am making now

good location, close to where i need to bring my kids in the morning


that is what i can think of right now.
