Today was an awful day for me, although no boss complaints so far, no clients...
I don't know why but I'm feeling deeply low and sad, only desire to cry and desperate feeling like I am a failure.
Maybe distant location of this office has an impact on me, not sure...
One thing more...near my workplace there is an aggressive dog, it is always barking and trying to bite. I really don't know what to do when it runs after me, especially when I leave the place. And clients have complained... I've told boss but she said that ' people are stronger and always can hurt and win in battle with animal'. But for me it's not a joke...

You sound like you need a break from work. Have you any holiday leave left for this year, maybe you could take one or two days over the weekend and make it a long weekend for you.
I don't know what you can do about the dog. Here if a dog bites even only once, they have to be put down. Is this dog behind a barrier or restrained in any way? Certain dogs here must be kept under control in public places at all times.

That's a load of rubbish about the dog! I came off worse against a dog last year! Multiple puncture wounds to both hands and arms, a fractured wrist and a general anaesthetic as it all needed to be cleaned up! I still have very visible scars now! If it's aggressive then the owner should be taking steps to get it under control. Might be worth speaking to the dog warden? (bear)

Yes, I need more free days, not only Sunday, because I should also work a half-day on Saturday, although it doesn't have any sense as all offices are closed and there are no clients at all.
Jaquaia, I'm really sorry to hear about your terrible incident.
The dog is female and it probably has puppies. She is not restrained and works even on nearby streets. Apparently there is no specific owner and the director of little shop who has probably taken the dog doesn't care, so nothing has been confirmed so far. Sometimes there is an old worker who calms the dog but he is not present all time. I've spoken to him but he hasn't taken it seriously. Someone suggested that I could give the dog some food.
-
Is there an animal charity you can contact? The dog is probably hungry and frightened.
-
I could search for one and get some information.
In the morning the dog was eating greedily. I asked this man if it is maybe hungry, but he has not confirmed this.
-
Be careful with regard to feeding the dog. Can you call the local pound or the local animal warden and report the dog?
-
I will be careful for sure, I really don't know how to proceed. I can get some information.

hope you are feeling a bit better selena. you could try call local dog rescue centre to get some advice, or to see if they could take it in, as it sounds like a stray dog? and so is probably v. hungry, especially she has puppies; not sure i trust the local authority pounds.

Thank you all. Today I've tried to talk about the owner of the dog and someone tried to say that he adopted the dog, although I really doubt it. I've got some food and dog immediately stopped barking, she is probably hungry.
I've been to the dentist, and everything was right.
I've done 3 translations, the last one bigger than others, I've finished some time ago. I've send it but I'm obsessed with idea that I did something wrong in office or about translation.
During working process I forget about my moods, but now I'm feeling alone and anxious again...
