Leave me alone
Today, I was taking phone calls. In my dreams. That's just how horrible my job is. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was working a phone call in a call center when I suddenly began to faint while at it. It turned out to be a bad dream I'd woken up from, because it's been three months since I've worked at that call center. FML
Today, I was so bored at my job as a receptionist that I actually got excited when the phone rang. FML
Today, the phone kept ringing so I picked it up and answered. When there was no response, it took a minute to realize that I was still in bed and talking to my hand. FML
Today, I had a conversation about how my day was, while dreaming. That’s how lonely I am. FML
Today, I was woken up from a phone call from my boss. He asked if I had been asleep. I told him I wasn't, that I was in my car on the way to work. Then my alarm went off. FML
Today, I was having a beautiful lucid dream when a telemarketer called at 5AM, waking me up. I silenced my phone and went back to sleep, and was somehow able to resume my lucid dream. Then my phone vibrated me awake. It was the same telemarketer, this time calling at 7AM. FML
Today, my phone randomly stopped working and I have three phone interviews. FML
Today, I'm so sick, I'm even sick in my dreams. Orientation for my new job starts tomorrow. FML
Today, I found out that the dream in which I drunkenly phoned my boss and called him a "fat useless piece of shit" actually did happen. I woke up to 10 missed calls and 5 angry texts stating I was fired. FML
Today, I started dreaming about being at work. I already work more hours a week than I requested, and I live right across from my work and can see it out my window. I can never leave. FML

I take it you're a telemarketer, which is why you didn't tell us your job. If we knew that, you'd get a collective YDI. If your job was sewer repair, dreaming about taking calls might feel like a vacation.

I second guess myself often. Though I've never wondered if quiting the call center and going to college was a good idea. Also I make 6x what that old job paid, dead-end jobs are a trap not an opportunity.
