Think I read on a post here somewhere that this is your inner self or whatever telling you things are wrong, you're in the wrong situation etc when you feel uncomfortable and unhappy.
I'm in a work situation where I'm theoretically redundant in early February. Whilst I don't want to be out of work and would happily stay until I got the right job, things happen that make me feel uncomfortable.
For example my colleagues are overly giddy and chatty to the detriment of getting on with work and the manager is the worst of all for it. She likes to hold court. We had her telling us how late in she will be tomorrow because of how pissed she's going to be tonight and she's always swearing. It's impossible for me to work, focus and concentrate in this environment. They're always fooling around and I can't cope with it. My nerves get shredded and I often go out of the room to escape the cacophony.
I'm outgoing and friendly normally and socialise with my friends a great deal, and also in my book group, history group, sewing club and gym, but at work I'm private and beyond friendly chat I'll go no further.
I want to work with sensible people who get on and do a good job whilst being friendly and professional.
I also have ADD and this environment is useless for me to work in productively.
So then, is this serendipity telling me I don't belong there and there's somewhere better for me to work?

You should go with your gut instinct

I'd say that the feelings are telling you that something needs to change. I"m sure it doesn't help to put focus on being annoyed by them

No I agree. Just wanted to talk about it.
I don't focus on it when I'm not there but when it's in your face it's hard so I try to remove myself from the situation.

Yes,Β same here.Β I have to catch myself sometimes. I try to pay attention to things at work that aren't annoying.

Bad feelings always mean that you are heading in the wrong direction, but not necessarily with your actions/situation, but with your thoughts. Can you find better feeling thoughts about the same situation?
You decide how the people around you act. If you want them to change, you have to shift your focus first. See them as sensible and if you are persistent, they will reflect it back to you.

I have a guy at my job that is annoying.Β I text my friend about it AND I tell my family about it when I get home.Β I've noticed that it only tends to get worse.Β It is at a point to where he follows me into the break room, during my lunch about work matters.Β But,Β I create that mood. Ya know?

Why is it me that creates it though? There are others there as well as me. Why am I the one creating the silly stuff and not them?

Of course you can choose to believe that there are others that create in your reality. But does that feel good to you? What would be the point of LoA, if others could create in your reality?

I'm in a similar situation, only my co-workers are great, its the job I dislike. And you know what, I've been looking for a new job for over a year now. I know why I haven't obtained my dream job -- its because I keep telling myself and others how miserable I am there. The universe is giving me exactly what I'm giving out.
I'm working on it, but I know how you feel.
