hahaha, you're a tuff cookie :P I respect that :)

Ohh lol thank you ;)

literally, everyone said it... "you get paid for sitting here all day doing nothing?"

Uhmm that kind sounds like a dream part time job lol what's wrong with you?!?! I'm JK I guess I can see how that can get boring after a while but still!

and also, not to be rude or anything... but the guys who were a notch above me (my supervisors if you will) had been at it for 8 years... 8 years of that... I started envisioning my miserable future and said "nu-uh, not for me"

Look it might have been a crap job but it's nothing to be ashamed of, you're only twenty three remeber that. Most of us are struggling, some of us are jobless and some of us have jobs that were probably just as bad as yours or worse even!

You got scared because you felt time was running out right? like you should've been out of there by now and that's an okay feeling to have, it just means you're ready to move on to something better.

It doesn't mean you were going to be stuck there if you didn't get out ASAP, because guess what?...now you're stuck looking for jobs. When your previous job probably wasn't all that bad. So depending on how much money you have saved up and how much your parents still support you, plus bills if you have any. You're probably counting down how much money you have in your account day by day until you find something new. So that's another added unnesscary stress into your life.

Your job might have sucked, it might have been the worst job ever! but it kept you stable and that's what I'm getting at. You keep a job as an adult not because you like it but because it makes you money and it's the responsible thing to do.
