Not as easy as it sounds

posted August 17th, 2023 at 3:53 AM

I confess that when people tell others that they should just quit their job because it’s making them unhappy, it bothers me. It’s not always so easy. Some people have employment barriers like disabilities or age that make finding a job at all much harder than it is for others. Financial realities mean that having a job is a necessity for the majority of people, so maybe instead of saying “just quit!”, they should just listen and try to be supportive. Sometimes people just need to vent and they’re not asking for advice.

Never quit your job unless you have another one if you want to pay your bills. If you want to actually quit to take time off you'd better have some cash saved. Otherwise you might end up 'camping' under a freeway overpass. Good luck.

I recommend reading the book, ‘The Mountain is You’ by Brianna Wiest. It’s kicking my ass in a good way these days.

Civilization is going to end soon for everyone. Just focus some happy thoughts on God and maybe you'll turn out alright.
