Getting Fired, The Worlds Best Stress Reliever
I mentioned a while back that I was let go from my job. The funny thing is I am a lot better for it. I feel more relaxed and I enjoy my hobbies a hell of a lot more now. Not saying I am cured there are still some skeletons eating at me and the feeling of being let go is gnawing at me a bit but I feel more alive now. I can actually sit sill and enjoy myself versus being so strung up
I want to die. Video games were all but dead to me not because I didn’t have time to play them but more because I couldn’t sit still. I’d get to bored or my depression, which might be to harsh a word, would get to me or I’d remember that I’d have to get up and go to work in the morning. At first I enjoyed working but as the years went on and nothing seemed to change nothing seemed to be getting any easier I realized I might have picked the wrong field. I don’t grasp things off the bat I need time to let them sink in and at the pace we were going I’ll admit it was hard for me to keep up. Self bashing aside there were just as many flaws with my employers. I loved my coworkers to death and I will miss them all dearly but my bosses I am not as sold on. I mean the head of the shop was an okay guy but very lazy and looking forward for retirement and it seemed like he “was” hoping I’d take his place with little to no effort on his part. It explains a lot why my first boss quit and I now can see why he tried to stick the business where the sun don’t shine. The corporate guy is a different shade of gray entirely. He was alright with me and we never had much to argue about but he was a little pushy when his true colors would show. All in all this mix led up to you guessed me being left at the door step. Again I hold no direct animosity to anyone individual. I could have tried a lot harder then I did but I wasn’t going to kill myself if they two weren’t going to help either. So I am where I am, a happy jobless bum who is really hoping they are excepted into GVSU this fall :3. Tomorrow I am going to head down to the college and transfer my transcript to them and hope to hear from them soon, and spend some quality time with a special someone, you know who you are ;3. Hope this means things are looking up for me and here’s to a much brighter future. I like this new me I’ll have another please XD.
The fact that Robert Downey Jr. is threatening to leave Marvel unless Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett basically all his Marvel buddies get a pay raise really shows you that he is a great man, a human being, and never thinks of himself above others even if he jokes that he is above everyone else all the time.
Not only that, but he’s also trying to negotiate having his pay LOWERED so that they could get more.
Jobless Bum
So the title really sums it up quite nicely. As of the 6th of May I have joined the world of the unemployed after one year nine months and 23 days of being a working stiff. I was hoping making it to that two year mark but alas it wasn’t in the cards. I am not to broken up though. I liked my coworkers enough but the pay was crap. Not to mention the hours. Working loads of over time and barely making $350 a week really started wearing on me. So long story short I am now free and unfortunately broke or will be after this next two months of bills ( ran through all my bills today and its not pretty ) but I think its all for the better. Working as a designer really helped me put my life in perspective and allowed me to see that I don’t see myself as an engineer nor a quality/maintenance person. It was fun playing with computers all day and designing neat things with CAD but it left me really bored and extremely drained at the end of the day. It helped me realize that I had been doing exactly what I blamed others of doing; growing up to damn fast. I threw myself into a career I wasn’t ready for both intellectually and maturity wise. I kinda wish I had seen it sooner seeing as I turn twenty three in June and have an unfinished associates and no job to show for it. My main priority should have been school and I kind of blew it with trying to balance it and a full time position. So here is to new horizons and a chance to buckle down and hit the books, and for real this time.

This kinda sums up how I feel about life right now. So many things pulling on me in every direction and all I can do it fade to feel at peace.
Sticking Up For Myself Scares Me
I have always been the silent type. Never the one for conflict, but about a week ago I had my review at work. It was an ass chewing of sorts but in a good way. With school, work and home life I was falling a little in all areas. My mind wasn’t in anything that I as doing. It helped awaken me a bit. During the review I kept my thoughts mostly to myself, I am not good with confrontation at all. Long story short they felt I wasn’t pushing myself enough. Like I said at first I agreed with them for the most part and the parts I felt differently on I kept my mouth shut on. The next week however was a different tale all together. Things seemed unnaturally tense around the office and it brought a bit of a demon out of me. I like the feeling of defending my ground but I feel like I might be coming off as a bit harsh and I don’t want that at all. Reason in point why I never want to lead. I am to nice to lead they’d eat me alive. Just wanted to get that off my chest. Not that I feel like I have done anything wrong just that I feel uneasy expressing myself this way.
