Jobs and identities

[(Anonymous)]

I'm one of those people who sort of defines themselves around and with the jobs they take. For me, I love working, and I want what I do to be a part of who I am. I've built up lots of peripheral skills over the years to contribute toward the field I want to get into.

I realize this isn't for everyone, but I'd like to ask, does anyone else out there do this? And if you've ever had a crisis moment, asking yourself, "Oh God am I really right in doing this?" What do you say to yourself/how do you deal with that crisis?

Push it out of my mind.

It happens quite frequently for me, and I just try not to think about it.


Yeah...that's probably not the advice you were looking for. Sorry :(

Re: Jobs and identities

I started the "working in your field" thread. I've been trying to get over the feeling that my job is the biggest part of my identity because I know it just makes me MORE frustrated and anxious when things go wrong at work. I try to focus on the other things that are important in my life--my friends, my family, my hobbies, my pets--none of which depend on my job. It's not that my job isn't important, but it isn't the only thing that matters about me. That usually helps, although it doesn't totally stop the fear that maybe I'm doing everything wrong.

I am absolutely like this, and this week has been hella crisis-y. Technically I'm in the right field, in that I'm working in theater and I want to be in theater but... the truth is I fell into a job on wardrobe and I have literally no formal design training and I'm constantly afraid I'm gonna be "found out". Most of the time I'm doing a huge pile of necessary repairs, and it's just soul-numbing. I'm really scared I've made my hobby into my job and I'm growing to hate my hobby. Besides which I'm constantly secretly jealous of the actors I'm dressing because I would be so much more comfortable on the stage than behind it.
