I’ve been working for three months for an international business based in Europe. The job involves frequent travel, which I hadn’t done before and has been more difficult than I expected. What happened was I just missed a flight for the third time since I started. I just seem to have a hard time being up at odd hours for flights and changing time zones. I don’t know why alarms aren’t working, because I’ve never had that much trouble being on time before. I already had a conversation with my boss about this a few weeks ago, and just had to put an extra flight on the company because I couldn’t wake up for a flight. I could be fired, and at this point in my career I will be completely fucked if I lose this job. I’m trying to mentally prepare myself for the consequences but I’m not ready yet to actually come clean to the people who need to know about it.
