I have reached a major low in my career. At least, in the selections of odd jobs I've been doing to sustain myself. Yesterday morning, I had to create food that made me want to gag. I made breakfast and lunch at a retirement/nursing home. It was 'okay' pay, so I thought, "What the hell. Why not?" I had to be there at 6AM, an hour I have not seen in ( Read more... )

Ironically, it was about 7 miles past your place of work! I had to drive by moonlight down Miles road into Chagrin Falls. And yes, I got lost :) At least this time I found Miles. I had to read the BP guy's chicken scratch in the dark.

Fear works for me. When I bring my knive briefcase to jobs everybody thinks I'm toting a bomb. It's a powerful good feeling.

I can't do it again. I'm not being picky, it really sucked ass. It was really awful and too far... Chagrin Falls. I'd maybe do it temporarily if it was in Cleveland, but it's not worth the drive or headache. Gas out there is $2.30/gal.!

I understand. For me, the job that I just couldn't take was a retail job I had in high school. I worked for 3 weeks and then had to quit or else lose my mind. You shouldn't dread going into work, and it definately shouldn't be more of a burden than a benefit! Anyway, here's hoping that you find something much better really soon! :D
