Feeling burnt out...ALREADY!?

Is this normal? I haven't even experienced a whole week of classes and work and I am already feeling like I wont be able to handle it. This is scary because I currently have one job and 15 hours of classes with minimal homework assignments since semester just started, but it is only going to get more hectic. Second job will start on sept 6th. NEXT WEEK! eek!


I wish people would stop calling with such dumb questions. I must have heard the "there is no such thing as a dumb question.." phrase 10 times in the past week. In my line of work... (job numero 1) there are such things as dumb questions. I feel for the elders who call and can't navigate through the online portals. Those people im glad to help out, unless of course they frustrated and taking it out on me. The yelling doesn't help.. all they make me do is want to hang up on them.. TEE HEE HEE. lol I must admit tough that it feels good to be as snobby as they are. I do it in a professional matter and yes.. at times i belittle them but ugh.. its so annoying when your only true intentions are to help and they just snap at you!

OMG Don't even get me started on parents who call and inquire about their son's or daughters info. These people are only making their kids handicap individuals. NEWS FLASH- they are adults now... have them call and figure out what classes to register for, Have them call about their financial aid status... and Have them know what placement test they need to take. The real world is NOT THAT scary. They will be okay. Have a little faith in them. This really urks me especially because there are students out there who fend for themselves and some are international students.. countries away from any parental unit and they are able to manage.

As far as my classes go.. I'm feeling a little blah! I don't specifically have a class that I can say I will enjoy this semester.. although I do have a tues-night class that I have yet to attend...so keeping my fingers crossed. I don't know what it is. I guess im still a little down about not being at my old university. Or maybe its just something I need to get used to.

Any who.. that is all . I am off. to answer more calls and later class!
