Welcome to Looslips, everyone, with Georgie Porter and me Sharon Carpenter.

This is X-Lipy and it's all about you guys.

So, listen to letter number one that's stopped there.

This one is from Alice. She's saying to Looslips, I am basically so ready to leave my job and I'm doing everything I can to do so, applying lots essentially.

I can't leave my job now as I need the money.

So, how do I get through the next few months or however long it takes absolutely hating where I am.

Need some support right now. Love to you both.

Who are you? What happened?

There was a company that I worked for, it was a network and I used to hate getting up in the morning because I did not want to go to work.

The main reason was because I care a lot about the product that I put out.

I'm like a super perfectionist and a lot of the people that I worked with at this particular company were inexperienced.

So, because of that, it was affecting my stories and the job that I was doing.

So, I thought to myself the same thing, okay, I'm going to look for something else while I keep this job.

But because the job took up so much of my time, I didn't really have time to go on the job search.

So, what I did when my contract was up, I ended up not going back to the company.

I realized that I was going to have to just make a clean cut to be able to find the time to find something else.

Now, that doesn't always work because they always say if you have a job, it's easier to find a job.
