Damn, man.. so now what?
Got a week of vacation to think it all over
Either apply elsewhere or maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Maybe that wasn’t my path. Gotta figure stuff out.

Keep me up to date!
OP I would try to find a place where I could do construction and learn how to become an Electrician if i were you
theyll have to cut my head off before i stop sucking on that money teet at my job
finding 'something that you love and making it your income' is neoliberal bourgeois fantasy. my job is there to put food on my table, have me a night out every other week, get me an occasional vinyl record or two, and rent. errythung else is noise
deadass
i work from home and i relish in it as much as i can. I do my job to the best of my ability and nothing more. I don’t make friends with my coworkers. I don’t care for the parties or brunches outside of work. ive seen ppl putting their everything 24/7 dedicating YEARS to a company get laid off without anyone even wincing.
Im gonna make this s*** of barely doing anything and getting paid very well while having autonomy over my day as looooong as i can
op seek what you’re looking for outside of your job. unless it’s super time consuming, WFH is literally a cheat code in life
August 2023 I walked into my principal’s office and told him our lack of resources was unacceptable and I would bounce if things didn’t change. He told me things were not likely to change but to sleep on it before making any rash decisions.
10 days later, I got an offer from my current school and I’m in a much better situation making 15-20k more a year. You’ve gotta bet on yourself, fam.

I walked out of an ezpz office job to study recording arts and now I work as production labor for concerts, festivals, corporate gigs and do freelance sound every now and then too. Still figuring out how to keep earning consistently through the winter months, but it's been totally worth it so far
ngl it sounds like you need a hobby that can achieve that, like seriously there are skilled manual activities you can learn outside of work lmao
yeah and i kinda regret it tbh.
my only advice would be to make sure that you have lots of money saved before taking the leap.
I started Amazon after being laid off (Covid) and sent back to a prior factory. I think that was a big risk because I needed part time and they said I "should" be able to get it, but found out that was a lie
I was going back to college and interviewed at psych related entry level companies but the work scared the s*** out of me, I didn't feel competent to be a therapist like that
After being written up or whatever for pissing too much (after I showed my meds that make me piss) I walked the f*** out of Amazon and took the other job after calling to find out if it was even available
5 years later I'm still in the field and it led me to crazy developments I never thought I'd be capable of. Literally saved my life.
Take a chance, worst that happens is you get to take another chance if it doesn't work out
Sure change jobs. Have bread saved up and go for it. Worse that can happen is you go broke.
I went from making $100k in hospitality to $14/hr to start my job in finance. Best move of my life.
Not even change. I straight up quit without a job lined up I got so mentally tired of it (on a serious level, not no bs)
Kinda backed myself into a corner but it's motivated me to want something better. I don't recommend it but sometimes you gotta put yourself first

Always recommend putting yourself first. The mental release is way more worth it than the worry of what’s next. Obviously not to misuse to this ideology, but don’t let people walk all over you, play you, or manipulate you cause the pay is great
