My job is so stressful - any tips for relaxing?

Question

I sit in front of two computer screens 5 days a week from 9-5 (so generic!) And I scream at around three employees and at least 1 subcontractor a day! I was in tears today because we have a huge event on this weekend and 5 of the guys who were doing the security dropped out (typical!) Any relaxation tips....PLEASE? (I think I'm going grey)

Answer 1

Join an evening yoga class at your local school/college. It will change your life, for the better.

Answer 2

To relieve my stress I just take a nice warm bath. It actually feels pretty good...nice and relaxing :P

Meditate. Collect yourself. Concentrate. Do some Yoga. Spend time with your pet.

s*x

Answer 6

smoke weed

Answer 7

Having lived through one near death experience and fought addictions of various kinds, it gives you some decent perspective.

Nothing lasts. Today may be bad, but it will always end. Jobs are what you make them. My job pays the bills, nothing more, nothing less. Yes, it is what you'd call a stressful job but working life really isn't worth worrying about.

If you're feeling bad about your job, imagine yourself without one. Oh, and screaming at your employees is just passing the stress on. There are better ways of dealing with people.
