Your local loco.
How close are you to quitting your job?
I think I'm very close.
Long rant incoming, friends.
Perhaps this question isn't as relevant to older folk established in careers of their choice.
The question is relevant to me. I'm a cook.
I got no impulse control really. So I spend my money poorly. I live in a ****e trailer literally held together by tape, and then money sometimes goes to substances, hookers, fast food, and junk food. Those things together add up more than my bills. So, logically, if I didn't have the money for these negative things, then I wouldn't get these things I don't want in my life.
That's just one thought.
I'm a literal god
And I'm frying chicken / washing dishes for a living
I'm a LITERAL GOD ok?! You know how degrading this is? When I'm clocked in as a dishwasher and some old lady takes a crap on the dining room floor, you know who cleans it up? ME! A GOD!
So that's another thought that's been bouncing around my head recently.
I just wanna spend all my time reading and studying. Man, I tried reading some Plato and that stuff was a grade level above my understanding. I got a lot to learn, especially when it comes to philosophy, which is critical to my understanding. I am way behind. I got 60+ books but I need to read most of em.
I just amp myself up on legal pills which are killing me slowly everyday so I can perform at work. Substance abuse in the restaurant industry is a rampant problem. Especially on the clock usage. The amount of people I've seen snort, smoke, drink, etc. while clocked in is unreasonable. This industry turned me into a junkie. At my first cooking job my managers and others would either give me pills so I could move faster or they'd come to me asking where they could get some for themselves. Been an addict since. I hate this industry when I'm sober but god do I love it when I'm high...
If I didn't have a family I didn't want to disappoint I'd just be homeless with my books. Maybe save up like 2gs first or something then just get food stamps. I've been homeless before only for a short while but I did enjoy being free from the everyday life that I was so accustomed to. It's so hot where I live though, being homeless here must suck.
My career choice is philosopher. And I'm far from it. So it seems my only other option is to be a cook indefinitely. Which i don't like. But I have no other skills. And with social anxiety disorder, I can't work in the public.
But I'm impulsive now. I decide on a day to day basis whether I quit or not. I want to pay a music producer some money for some work so I think I'll be working for a couple weeks at least. But after that, I think I'm liable to quit at any moment
I already alerted my bosses lol I'm real with them.
What about you? How close are you to quitting? The reason I ask is because if I ask my coworkers that, half of them will laugh and put their fingers togsther and say "this close". The other half will grumble they can't afford to quit. I wonder if it's the same for you guys, or if you have found actual satisfaction in your day job.
Rant over.
