Well, I'm sure I'd feel much worse if I weren't under such heavy sedation.

As long as there's sex and drugs, I can do without the Rock 'n' Roll....

I may have alzheimers but atleast I don't have alzheimers - ?

I empathise with your problem, though as previous posters have said it may be a little too early to judge things just yet… I always think it takes at least six months to sus a new job out.

Until things improve, however, you need to transform yourself from victim to aggressor… Here’s 3 easy steps:

1) Wake up in the morning. Shout “I’M THE F88KING GREATEST!!!” in the mirror, followed by your most aggressive war cry: RAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

2) Arrive at work, barge into managers office pin him to the wall, threaten to cut his thimbs off/kill his children/rape his parents until he’s a quivering broken mess …

3) Calmly return to desk. Start work

As the others have said:

Give it more time (3 months min)
Try and be assertive rather than moany (easier said than done, I know).
If it hasn't picked up after 3 months carry on but start looking for a new job. There's thousands of 'em out there.

But whatever you do, don't chuck it all in to become a poker player.

agree with most of this pol.

hang in there a few more weeks and see how you feel.

cheers guys. i really appreciate the messages. after another horrible day, i've now managed to whip myself into a 'they're definintely going to fire me' frenzy, which isn't really very helpful.

i think perhaps i just need to chill. not easy, but i've a pot noodle in the kitchen and 'i'm a celebrity' is on later, so there's hope!

thanks again though peeps, and if i manage to make it to the gig tomorrow, i'll treat y'all to a bag of pork scratchings and a wedgie. x
