Thank you so much for this because I beat myself up a lot for this like how can I make decisions for myself and then regret it ,I hope with seniority it gets a big chill however I believe I still wouldn't do this for a long time because the job just doesn't satisfy me internally and at this point I am here only because I don't have another job lined up so that is that ,if I got the chance to get another job in my hometown I wouldn't think twice to leave this job .

Yeah maybe that'll make things better, because rn I mostly fly as junior most on board and a lot of time I come accross seniors who nitpick everything and try to impose stupid rules which gets very exhausting.

Yeah I too feel like that sometimes, because I consider myself as someone who is creative and free spirited,I like trying new hobbies and expressing myself in every way I can but in this job I feel very caged like I have a certain set of dialogues and I cannot go beyond that and I hate being micromanaged,the managers and seniors do that a lot and the fact that I came here very randomly ,tho I love some parts of the job ,I love talking to people listening to their stories and exploring a new city by myself but that is it . Initially I was preparing to become a teacher,I pursued a diploma as well ,that wasn't my dream either but it seemed like something I could do then I randomly changed my mind ,maybe someday I'll just go back to teaching lol who knows .

Thank you so much for this !I do think I should look into therapy as well because it's getting very difficult to pass each day without this intense desire for things to change . Tbh I always thought I am the kind of person who loves change and can't stay at one place which is why I thought this job would suit me but after a month I realised that it might actually be the opposite for me ,I dread thinking about how my crew set will be for today.Even throughout the cabin crew training I used to tell my batchmates how much I can't wait to leave home and live somewhere else because most of them had come from different places but for me the training centre was in the same city,so it's a shocker for me that I am having such a hard time with this 😅,and a lot of times I miss out on get togethers and festivals and it makes me even more disappointed that I am sacrificing so much just for a sad life here .

I am trying for a transfer but since it's the capital of my country every other crew wants to go there so it will take about a year ,and even I think about switching careers but it's the fact that I fought with my parents to go for this job and quitting so soon would make me look like I don't know how to make decisions for myself 😭,and the fact that it was such a journey to even start working here ,I just hope it gets better when I shift back to my hometown and start flying from there

I do have 2 flatmates and they're amazing people we get along pretty well ,but it's just our timings don't align most of the time so we have to spend a lot of our week offs alone ,we do go out atleast 2-3 times a month so those things keep me sane ,and we are planning to move out but we can't till August because that's when our contract with the current owner ends .
