Anyone else feel really bad about how shit they are at their job?
>Work at a gardening store
>We sell gardening equipment
>I have worked here for 4 months
>Still bad at it
>can't remember the names of things
>can't remember where things are
>bad at customer service
>slow at stocking
Just one example from today, probably one of the worst yet
>Stocking some watering cans
>Some old man approaches me
>'excuse me nice young man, could you please point me in the direction of the Power Tools?
>want to help him
>quickly realise I can't remember what a power tool is
>know it is a tool but not sure if it means like drills and stuff, or whether it means watering cans
>for some reason I blank and start to think a power tool is a watering can
>hold up one of the watering cans I am stocking
>'here you are sir, please browse our range'
>he looks at me
>'no young man, I am looking for power tools!'
>can't think, don't see why he is still asking
>nod and point at the watering cans
>he gets confused
>mutters something under his breath and walks away
>saw him leaving empty handed
>next hour spent stocking the actual power tool
Jesus I am a fucking idiot. I hate myself.

Systems admin. It's fine but I just can't handle the workload, there's so much to do.
The worst thing is the social interaction. I feel so much fear going into a demo room if there's an issue. I'm stood there mumbling while fucking about with whatever the issue is, wishing the ground would swallow me up. Can't wait to find out what I actually want in life and just go for it and leave this bullshit behind

Wew lad. I want to do sys admin when I graduate but that right there made me anxious.
