I need help changing my attitude towards life in general but especially my work. I am trying to do the work of several people and have asked for help but don't get much if any. Jobs are constantly late because while I am trying to print one or fix the printer, more keep piling up I can't even set up. Not only that, I am responsible for supply ordering, designing jobs (which is what I want to do but rarely get much chance - and wouldn't have time with all the other responsibilities anyway). Nobody really complains much to me about the jobs being late because they seem to know the workload I am under, but yet I hate it. I feel like I am drowning in work and have gotten to the point that I don't even care about quality - just getting the jobs done. Then the printer breaks or starts spitting toner and gunking up the print job and I have to waste 2 or 3 hours trying to get the machine to cooperate and print good again - while even more work stacks up. I guess my biggest problem is that even though I say I don't care about quality or the lateness of jobs - I really do but there is nothing I can do about it. I have one printer and one operator (me). I am thankful to have the job and I do get paid extra (though not time and half) but sometimes I just want a life. Some days I do better than others when I just focus on one job and ignore the fact there is so much piling up around me - but it is stressful. because I feel like I am in a dark tunnel with no light in sight. So my prayer is for a better attitude, for someone to see I need help and provide some and if that can't happen - a different job where I can focus on doing one thing well instead of several things half-heartedly.
