Bitch about your job here

[bignothing]

I've pretty much given up on trying to really connect with people. I'm glad I can have intelligent conversation with most people who are close to me, but I'm pretty sure I'll never find real friendship again. You know, the kind where you really feel like you can find solace in one another. Not for me.

[hnibos]

Yeah, it's impossible for some people. I feel your pain.

[ilikeplanets]

I want to find a real job. I must find a real job. Without my husband working and me getting only $600/month to support us both, I am gonna drown. How the fuck do I find a real job??

[Eulogy]

Start with not doing drugs all the time

[slunken]

that's what's up

[ilikeplanets]

not really. you can't really make a ton of cash profit unless you have a nice amount of cash to contribute. decent way to make free/cheap drugs but i actually need money.

[ilikeplanets]

unless i guess if you have a prescription you get for cheap(ish) and resell at their highest value.

Ignoring my advice then, huh

[Bread Regal]

you have to start small, ilp. take out a cash advance if you have to. consider it investment capital.

[reprise85]

you can make money fast pushing if you have a good network. start with an oz of weed for $300 or whatever. if you can sell it for $400 you make $100. if you sell 2 oz a day make $200 a day. not too shabby. you'll only have to reinvest all the money about 10 times right away. then you'll be able to get a QP for $900 or so and you'll have the original $300 + $100 profit. Every QP you will make at $700 profit, less if you cut some people deals for larger amounts or pay more than $900 per QP. So that's $350 a day, let's say you smoke some and give some breaks. Easy $250 a day. More if you can sell more. Sell some people some oz for $300 and make $100 on each one, easy peasy. Be reliable and people will love you.

If I did my math right, within a 2 weeks you could make $200 a day easy, probably more like $300 and have your initial investment back. Just don't get caught.

Not even. I just don't see myself being able to get into a company that I can actually support myself (and my husband?)working for. Mostly because I've only ever worked at restaurants and grocery stores. My first job out of college was at Hardees. I think I'm terrified of professionalism.

[Eulogy]

Are you gonna stop doing drugs?

[Eulogy]

And... Why did you get married?

[ilikeplanets]

I can't imagine how I would ever feel less shitty without any drugs at all. Being high is the most pleasurable thing for me, it's a pretty big void to fill and usually it just fills with (worse) mental illness if I'm not blasted. Maybe a job in Colorado where I didn't have to give up weed, too. I don't know how it works over there, I hope it works like that.

There's not really a neat answer to why I got married. I mostly like it.

[reprise85]

The idea of quitting drugs is that you work on why you have that void in the first place. Yes it sucks. Well, at first it's sort of awesome but then yes, your mental illnesses come out but that's when you can work on them. You can't do that while you're getting high all day. You'll never grow emotionally and you will never deal with your problems. That wasn't okay for me.

I mean you're basically getting that fulfillment every time you get high by flipping your dopamine switch on. And that is happiness, I'm not saying it's not... chemicals are chemicals. It's just that happiness you've actually worked hard to get is much more rewarding and a whole lot cheaper, too.

And no one is saying you can never smoke weed again... just not constantly.

DHR is taking the old bat away so I am out of income! Maybe I'll go and teach English in South Korea...I am qualified and I love KPop!

[Trotskilicious]

That would probably be good for you

also a divorce would help

and rehab

then some therapy

[ilikeplanets]

Everyone I've run it by seems to think it's just what I need. I could be out there within six months...think I'll start applying at Green Heart. I dress like a hobo though so I really need to go clothes shopping...yuck.

[Order 66]

i called in "sick" for the first time in my life. i'm kind of disgusted with myself

good idea

[Trotskilicious]

Also divorce or hey, just leave him.

[Gossamer]

working full-time fucking sucks. it's such a grind.
sometimes I wish I could just collect SSI and just chill.

5 day work week sucks.

[Gossamer]

and I actually sorta like my job most of the time.

except when patients have tried to jump off the roof.

then I hate my job.

[Future Boy]

how often does that happen

[Bread Regal]

Never, because Gossamer doesn't even work in a profession where he has patients.

[Eulogy]

My job is so entirely dependent on how other people act that I can't even handle it. Give me predictability or give me death.

do you really understand how little money SSI would give you

[Eulogy]

Don't engage him
