Maybe not so much a rant as a call for support.

I love my job. I want to preface everything with that. But lately I've been feeling so unmotivated. Not frustrated, just feeling a bit down. And I can't really put my finger on why.

It's not the customers. Yeah, we can sometimes get the occasional irritating one, but nowhere near like some of the stories we see here everyday.

It's not my manager. She's great, for the most part. There are some things she can do that irk me a little, but for the most part she's very supportive and hard working. She's always concerned about us, and I truly feel it's genuine. And she's on the floor a lot and not one of those "always in the back" managers.

And my partners...they're the greatest. I already knew I had a great team. But recently, I did an observation with another SSV at their store, and after seeing and hearing some of the issues they have with some of their partners, I gained an even higher level of appreciation for the great staff we have.

I truly don't know why I'm feeling the way I am. I guess I'm hoping someone can give me a kick in the ass or something. Again, I do love my job and pretty much everything about it. I just want to get back my enthusiasm and drive.

Thanks for letting me vent.
