Going to explode

It’s been months… I am without a maid.

On the work front, it is not so good as well. There are tonnes of things to do and I am the only person doing it. Why won’t they hire another person, or take the hardware related tasks away from me and give it to some guy in the office?

I did not sign up for this when I came to work here. I was suppose to manage at the most 3 websites and I now have more than 10. Salary did not increase 2 fold even after 5 years. With this kind of work load, I hardly have time to be creative to be honest.

It kills my interest to come into work totally. I applied for jobs and was called for interviews but have withdraw all of them in the past month. WHY? Having a sick parent at home means I need my leave to accompany my old folks to hospital almost every month. How am I going to do that in a new job?

I’m trapped. I’m doomed. I wish for a kind soul who can lend a hand. Give me a job which allows me to take care of my family? I cannot stop working because I need money.

Holiday?

Who does not want a holiday? We all work hard and of course we want to reward ourselves by taking a break, going away somewhere.

Do you know that not everyone take leave for their own pleasure? How many people out there actually need to sacrifice their leave for the family? Whether it is for taking care of a sick child or helping out with aged parents.

I have never gotten an offer from my own siblings to relieve our mother and myself from taking care of our dad and doing all the household chores. I only got offer to accompany someone to her holiday which I cannot go obviously.

It’s been a very tough time for me, now that we have to be without a maid. My bf gets to travel for work and I cannot go along even if I am able to pay for my own share. I am not asking him to pay but can he just try to find out more from the organizers.

I want to go away too you know? I am like the only child, don’t you think so? Since I am doing this alone most of the time. But I do not have all the privilege and love showered on the only child since young since I have 2 other siblings who are also grown adults and earning much more than me.
