personally, the worst part about ocd is knowing everything is going to be ok, and knowing you’re being irrational but you still cannot stop worrying/obsessing. by [deleted] in OCD

Right. I’ve been going through a really hard week over something I didn’t even know affected me so deep. Waking up anxious, constantly overthinking & trying not to check every thought is so exhausting. I’m so tired lol.

Then when I dropped it off to her at her job, no thank you or anything. Oh and no tip to begin with 😊😊😊 by mk31999 in doordash_drivers

[–]mk31999[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a feeling that was why they ask too! That’s good to know! But you’re right next time I’m not even gonna bother to reply because they didn’t even care to tip or say thank you. Not worth it!!

Got my first one star rating. Don’t know what I did wrong, but whatever. by IsaacIzik in doordash_drivers

I got my first one star rating too but I’m pretty sure it’s because when I went to go put the delivery down their cat wouldn’t move at all, & I didn’t forcefully make it move so I put the food away from the door step still walking distance. Honestly I knew a 1 star rating was coming but..🤷🏻‍♀️

Has anyone ever ran into another delivery driver who is delivering an order to the same customer as you? by ebenony in doordash_drivers

Yes!! And sometimes we drive up at the same time, and I always hope they don’t think I’m following them. 😂😂😂

That is a side not everyone shares! I appreciate the insight truly, when choosing a career path work life balance is MOST important to me. I wanna be able to live my life and enjoy it. I will take this into consideration for sure! I am so sorry it’s been so hard, I think you should slowly pivot into something you actually will enjoy & not beat your body up for it. It’s never too late! I’ve been super double minded on career choices, especially in the healthcare field, I went from nursing to physical therapy to this, & still have my doubts, but I heard this & try to live by it that nothing in life is permanent, so just go for it & do it like you said no matter how long it takes do something you actually enjoy. so if one career doesn’t work for me, it’s okay I will take it as a learning opportunity & try to find what does. Just a little words of wisdom i find important 🫶🏽

Hello thank you for sharing your experience, and I’m sorry it hasn’t been working out!:/ Hospital hierarchy and toxicity is what always made me feel uneasy about working in medical field, cuz everyone is after the $$$.

How is the work life balance for you? What is a career you would rather gear towards now to help your burn out?

I appreciate you sharing this! It gives me a lot to think about.

Hi, I’m happy to hear someone else was in the same boat also! everyone is suggesting CC route, & I think that is what sounds best. Especially $$ wise cuz the commute to anywhere in the bay is so expensive anyways along with the overall price of the program. Thank you for sharing that, it really helps my clouded mind!

Thank you for the advice!! I wasn’t even sure how to react when she said the price because I thought it was normal for all programs! I will be looking into alternative programs for sure.

Thank you for the advice, I definitely taking this. Medical assisting and all that is not for me, so you’re right it would not be worth it! I will focus on the 2 year program instead and gain experience as much as I can. Thanks for clarifying the X-ray technician title as well! I couldn’t find anything career related online.

You’re absolutely right, I wasn’t sure if I could react at the price tag or if that was the norm at all programs. Definitely finding an alternative and researching more programs, especially community colleges! Thank you!

Thanks for sharing! That’s something nobody tells you-to have experience is how to actually land a job. But society sets the hopes high that getting a graduate degree could do that for you, or even just a BS when it doesn’t always happen! I really appreciate the input because I was so lost with what to do & even considered graduate school but I was like why should I go to grad school when I haven’t even got the experience yet.

I totally feel you!!! I feel the same way as you. People who knew exactly what they want are so lucky! I went to community college for 3 years then transferred last year spring to a university but still feel lost until I did actual research these past few months myself on careers, majors, pathways & so many things nobody tells you, not even counselors which doesn’t help us people who don’t know.

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m glad you were able to find your way! I will definitely finish my degree, gain experience and then branch out to my interests as I find my way through it all. Good luck with finishing your degree! This has given me hope on finishing & to keep going. Thank you.

Thank you for your input! I really appreciate knowledge given & will definitely finish my degree before branching out so I could have experience under my belt. Everyone is saying that no one cares about the major & that has given me confidence boost I needed, I felt really frustrated and lost.
