I've recently lost the job which was meant to be a brand new start after stress related sick leave and a troubled work history. I wasn't there long enough to appeal via HR or an industrial tribunal. So I wrote a letter to the manager asking him to reconsider.

In the meantime I've applied for jobs in a couple of other stores within the chain so then I can do a cover story of a transfer. I'm too ashamed to admit yet another failed job to my family and to the friends who know more of my chequered work back story.

I had my first Universal Credit meeting today, which brought home the situation's reality. It just feels like my life's one big circle of raised hopes, dashed hopes and going nowhere.

@sarajamor0811 I am so sorry to hear of all of these serious and life changing events happening but you should be proud of yourself for being an advocate for yourself and not giving up! I hope things go smoothly for you and I have no doubt that you will you will find your way since you are stronger than you think! If you ever want to talk, I'm here for you. :)

Sorry you are going through this. I feel the same way about my life and 7cups taking my listener accout away from me 2 weeks due to some idiot not understanding my comment about SH that 7cups think a need a break. My therapist does not agree with 7cups but I can't talk them into giving me access yet.
