Keeping it short. Maybe.

I have had to cover for my coworkers way more than I like. They are not stupid but they are ignoring their duties and I am fucking pissed about it and too fucking tired. It is impacting my life in ways I don't want to talk about and it is bullshit.

If I have to deal with one fucking more thing this weekend that they were supposed to deal with I am going to fucking go off. This has been going on for months and I am done with it. I am done doing it for them.

Rant over (maybe). Kind of pissed off since I keep having my life fucked up because some jerk wont do their fucking job.

Why the FUCK do I keep ending up with people like this. At one point I had a damn good team I worked with and we kicked ass and things were awesome. Took care of each other and when shit hit the fan it was a war room and we moved on.

I am Tired, I am so fucking tired.

Even then. I am doing your job for you because people rely on that job getting done. Have some fucking self respect and respect for those that need the job done.

Fucking damn it.

[Edit] Maybe this should be in rant. I don't know. I am just having a not so great week. Thanks for anyone listening. Fucking damn it.

I’m sorry you’re having a tough week. I’ve been in your place except no one’s life was depending on the work, but it was important and so I was very frustrated. Another difference was that not everyone on my team was competent and capable, so I blamed management for their continued employment.

I don’t know what else you can do if you’ve already brought this up to management and the team. But the stress and frustration you’re experiencing is not worth a job. If you continue you could ruin your health and sanity. I’d start an exit plan. Make sure everyone knows you’re done, but that you’re willing to train someone new who cares about the life or death situation. Your deadline should be reasonable, but contract to stay on additional months with exponentially increasing compensation. At some point management will be so squeezed by the finances that they’ll either compel the remainder of the team to do their jobs or find someone who will.

Good luck, and thank you for caring so much about strangers that you are doing everyone else’s job. I hope that you are able to take a hike or have a barbecue today and have some enjoyment before you start your week again.
