Work has consumed my life.

Being a manager of a restaurant is no fun at all. I don’t know how much longer I can keep going. Just when things are going well, I get blind sided with someone quitting on a week’s notice or we get slammed with online and over the counter orders. They talk about having a work life balance, but for me it’s all work. I want to take time off, but I know things are just going to go to shit because I have people on my team who don’t get along and they all too stubborn to see the bigger picture. I know I’m too soft and too nice. I assume that people know what to do, but I see why people stopped coming to my store. It’s like no one knows what they’re doing and no one is taking a lead. I should be a leader, but I don’t feel like one. I don’t think I’m the right person for this. I really wish I had a desk job. I would kill to have a 9-5 and not be working 6am to 6pm Monday through Friday. I’m writing this right now because I don’t want to think about what orders I should get a courier for. I want to be able to leave work at work. That would be nice.
