Long story short, I have worked at a place that has made me miserable for years. I've had family members and friends telling me to quit and look for something new for years, and I never did because I felt like there was nothing I could get that paid better, and I was afraid of change. Well after like 4 months of stress and overtime, and literally everyone else at my job quitting, I finally put in some applications. First of all holy hell all here a ton of jobs right now, and suprisingly many were paying more for much less responsibility and require less overtime. I did get a new job, and its way better. I am now getting a 5 dollar pay raise for like 1 third of the stress and work. Tonight is my last night of my old job, and it feels awesome knowing after today I won't have to come to a place the makes me miserable lol.

So moral of the story is, don't let yourself get stuck doing something you hate. Don't be afraid of change. If your unhappy because of your job, make the move. Especially now, the job industry seems to be booming, at least where I live.

I was like that before I joined the military. They got a mindset distilled in me that makes me feel like a POS for not showing up to something sh1tty lol. It serves well in life for most things, being on time, having a clean space, etc, but maybe not in the scenario of quitting bad jobs lol

It's kinda stupid to have a job. I live in my mom's basement and she brings me pizza rolls every time I snap my fingers. I also have 3 internet girlfriends.
