I dreamed that I had been missing work because I wasn’t feeling well. I could tell work was trying to be patient with me, but they were getting tired of it. i kept forgetting my schedule and the table numbers. I asked my manger what my schedule was. I wanted to work part time. She had scheduled me for more shifts that I wanted, but it wasn’t too bad, just a few more. She said to rest today, and start back tomorrow. I feel like her patience was running a little then because I’d been sick so much, but she wasn’t upset with me.
This dream could be reflecting feelings of guilt or anxiety about perceived shortcomings in your professional life or responsibilities. Feeling unwell in the dream and being unable to keep up with your work schedule may symbolize a sense of being overwhelmed or falling behind in your waking life. The fact that your manager appears patient but also slightly impatient could suggest a fear of disappointing others or feeling like a burden, even if you are trying your best.
The desire to work part-time in the dream may indicate a need for more balance or flexibility in your real-life work schedule. It's possible that you are feeling the need to slow down or take a break due to stress or burnout.
Overall, this dream may be urging you to pay attention to your own well-being and needs, and to communicate openly with others about your limitations and boundaries. It may also be a reminder to prioritize self-care and avoid pushing yourself too hard in order to maintain a healthy work-life balance.
