depressed and lonely i have not had a human conversation since Wednesday am starting to be tempted to try to go out to get something to eat just to try and talk to someone for 2 minutes at the checkout

What do you do for a job if you haven't spoken to anyone since Wednesday? You ever thought about getting a job where you're around people?

Yeah that does sound depressing not gonna lie. Does it pay well? Cause I genuinely think you might be better off with a different job if it affects you that much? Like the balance of quality of life is more important than a few extra quid surely?

It pays almost 30k a year, I can't really afford to take a pay cut within it my life getting a lot worse financially
View on Reddit #25354669

Comfortable_Dish5983@reddit

Almost 30, like 28, 29? I'm in hospitality on 26k doing 42-45 hours a week, which is bottom end of the wage, if you've got management experience you could get an easy 32-36k, more if you're down south. So wouldn't even be a pay cut. Obviously if you were on line 50k then yeah it wouldn't be viable but honestly if you're only just above minimum wage for full time then I'd genuinely consider a career change
View on Reddit #25355137

Yatsu-ink@reddit

Closer to 29 and do have some experience currently using the job as a chance to try and get more but ehhh confidence
View on Reddit #25357057

Comfortable_Dish5983@reddit

Confidence is key my friend. If you tell yourself you can't do something, you won't be able to do it. Flip the script, tell yourself how good you are at doing your job. Dont brag, just remind yourself of what you do. Skills can be extrapolated into other careers very easily. It doesn't happen over night but you've clearly got to be good at something to be in the administration role. Management, organisation, planning etc. All very similar to being a restaurant manager. You can be a day manager and make plenty of money and have unlimited human interaction! Believe in yourself. It pays off more than you think. I was getting slammed today at work, almost to the realm of me struggling but I just took a minute to look over the orders and said "yeah this is easy" and I just carried on, next thing you know id done 60 covers without even realising

I was pretty terrified of it at first, thought that I would feel like a loser, but going out and doing things solo is actually very freeing! I’ve travelled a few places now by myself and once you realise that literally no one gives a shit if you’re at a table for 1 in a restaurant, or wandering round a museum by yourself instead of with a friend/partner, it becomes very enjoyable. No one else to fit your day around, can interact with people as much or as little as you like, and allows you to do things that you may have been missing out on before due to the image in your head of doing it solo. Going to a museum/gallery and asking someone that works there for a bit more information on a work or painting is a great way to get some conversation in, and it doesn’t feel forced or awkward because most of the time they’re interested in what it is you want to talk about and are gassed that someone wants to find out more about it. Plus a lot of those places are cheap/free.

Peppa Pig is the worse. I tell my son it doesn't work on our TV, he's young enough he believes me for now, phew. He's majorly into Grizzly and the Lemmings just now, I quite enjoy it too. I hope she finds something else she likes to watch. Being a single parent is so rough. It's hard to not have an adult to talk to. And it must be so hard for you, having lost your wife. Have some hugs from a Reddit stranger and fellow Peppa Pig hater.

I have about 5.5k photos since late 2017, I think I’ll eventually move them to my external hard drive but a lot of them are basically duplicates and screenshots of random things I no longer need.

Female, 43. Been single a long time now so learned to enjoy and savour the single life. Had a productive day, went to the gym first thing with a friend, then we went for breakfast after. Got home and spent the rest of the day pottering round the house, doing a bit of food prep and housework, and spent a fair bit of time chilling on the sofa. Watched the TLC documentary on Netflix, nice bit of 90s nostalgia, played with my cat, listened to some music, did a bit of practice on my ukulele. Now drinking tea and eating Maltesers and minstrels. Probably be in bed by 11. And I’m perfectly content 😌
