I'm actually a secondary school teacher.
I am also a weekend mother, seeing my son everyday after work at my mum's home and taking him back on Friday nights and weekends.
I'm not senior at work but my boss expected too much (corresponding to my rank). I have been very much devoted these years but it turned out i was not appreciated at all. i have been questioning my working ability and i am losing my confidence. i talked to my friends who also work at schools recently and realize that I have really suffered too much for what I am given (my rank). I'm kind of very frustrated and really wish to leave. My husband is okay with that and my parents said OK too. however, I am so much worried about my future, like the pressure we need to take if only my husband is working and whether I would be able to work again in the future when my son, anyway, grows up and i need to go back to my own life.
I think my body condition is telling me that my recent mode of life cannot sustain.
how am I really supposed to leave this place ? I don't know. I don't have the courage to make this change.
and afterall, I don't want to take ftm as a shelter from my work.
feel bad.
can't agree with ccchong anymore.
all u said is exactly what I feel.
I doubt myself a lot these days about whether I have problems in my ability since I see many ppl cant handle work so well.
I'm really losing my confidence as well :(
