I'm a dog groomer and I hate this job so much.
I just need to vent I guess. I started being dog groomer two years ago and at the beggining I really enjoyed it! I loved dogs, working with them, bathing and trimming them brought me so much satisfaction! I worked part time for one and half year and then opened my own place. Over time my satisfaction from grooming dogs faded and dogs really started to get on my nerves. All those whining, barking, biting, wriggling around. It's pissing me off so much and I can't stand it anymore. Even though at the beginning of this job all those things wasn't a problem. But now it became so frustrating. I mean I've never expected that I'll always be all excited and happy about working. I knew that there's gonna be difficult dogs but I didn't expect it'll be this bad and so fast. I mean two years in this job and being already so sick of it? WTF. I don't know what's wrong with me. If I knew it'll be like this I would never get into this.
I want to quit but I don't really know what else I could do in my life. I'll be talking to my therapist about it. Maybe we'll find a solution or at least she'll help me deal with this frustration. I mean she already did help me providing healthy ways for my really huge frustration and it works but only for a moment because then I have to go back to those annoing dogs behaving like crazy and all my frustration is back. I also don't really understand why those dog's behavior started to make me so frustrated. I really don't understand and I don't know what to do. I also can't take break from this job because I need money. It all just sucks so much.
