There are a few new people at my job and they already put in there two weeks because of better job opportunities they have been offered. I've worked there for 8.5 years and they have been there less than a year. I am so sick of it.
Just hang in there. Your blessings are coming soon!!

That's not the job of someone else to do? So, perhaps a change of attitude and perspective is needed here. What you need do is accept that 'you' are the only person that can change 'your' life. That only "you' become responsible for 'choosing' what path your life goes on. There will be a ton of job opportunbities out there where you might not be able to get. If that's the case, then do something about it. Educate yourself..upgrade...do things for you that will help a would be employer want to give you that chance. This is life. We keep looking for ways to attain the ability to continue the upward climb and continue finding new friends, new career and educational opportunities and generally, accepting that life is a positive challenge and there is so much out there.
If you feel you don't have the energy or strength to do the above, it could mean you are in a rut, because of depression. Do you feel depressed and like giving up? Sometimes that is the cause of staying stuck. And you might need a doctor's advice. I would look into that, if this continues, dear. Good luck and do things to help you. Take care.

Everyone feels like this at some point. What you need to realise is that everybody moves through life at their own pace. Stop comparing your position to the position of those around you. Maybe you've not had as many opportunities as they have, or are just taking your time going through the paces.
There's nothing wrong with this.
If you stop worrying about how far behind everyone else you are and start focusing on where you are now and where you want to go, things always seem less bad. And jobs are strange. You won't have one for a really long time and then you'll find you have opportunities coming out of your ears. You just have to keep looking, keep trying - don't give up.
So yes, lol, i have felt this way and i'm sure other people have to.
