This is important, so please listen:

NO JOB, NO MATTER WHAT THE PAY, IS WORTH YOUR HAPPINESS.

I walked away from 79K a year (in 2001 dollars that was a lot) to be an artist and now my friends like me again. I was becoming a wreck, withdrawn, mean to even my fiance... it was ugly.

Take the money and run. Your sanity will thank you for it.

I think part of me was hoping for a reply like this :] Thanks, youre right.

I feel like such a zombie at work and when I go home all I do is complain when talking about my day, because nothing good happens while Im here. And I hate complaining because I know how anoying it is, but work invades my mind >_<

I dont really think its worth it.

Incidentally, I was going to avoid getting into my beatnik philosophy since talking about the current economy is so beaten to death. However, since Richard chimed in with something along that vein, forgive me ( ... )

This is the artists struggle, sweetie. Humdrum of life can be a grounding benefit but I am less likely to see it cuz I just wanna do art, dammit. Let me follow my bliss. Its just that bliss and something so greed-induced like money are a hard mix to create.

Sorry that your boss is being a douche. When I had a job, I had to put up with stuff like that and I tried to look at it as a way of building character and getting me bristled up to deal with life better and better as I go from douchebag boss to sucky rat race and back again.

*hugs you tight*

Aww, thanks ^_^

lol Wayne wants me to look at it like that, that Im just building character... and it kinda worked last week until the dude blew up at me and I saw his true colors :P I think Im just gonna wait until my pay check next week then give him my notice, so then Ill have a bit of money to keep me going until I find another way to make monies.
