I couldn’t finish watching Taxi Driver. I don’t think I even got halfway through.
But yes, this is the same job I've had since September of '06 and I'm finally reaching the point where walking through the door every day is something I dread, just because I hate being here so much. I don't know what I'd do, but this is the last place I want to be every day. I hope for traffic in the mornings, because it means I have less time to be here. I hope for a flat tire, or an accident, because it means I won't be here.
I almost had a door slammed against my head on Tuesday and I was wishing it was so I didn't have to be here.
I hope you are actively getting and submitting job applications for a new job, right?
No.
Part of the problem is my only lack of drive. I get all uppity about shit, then get home and just sit down and play games until I go to bed. I just stop caring when I leave here.
Part of it is also that I have a stable job here. This company is in no danger of going under, and I have little to 0 chance of being laid off. As much as I hate being here, I know that I'm better off staying that joining some fly by night company that might fail.

This is what happens when we become adults and have to accept that outside of a lucky few, we'll work jobs that we hate because they pay the bills.
I hear ya boyo.

I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

There are other possibilities. Like a job with a good company that you don't dread going to every day.

These are not the only two options.
In this economy? I'd say stable employment at a job you hate is better than unemployment. I dunno about the job market where Justin is, but I'm sure quite a few people are eating shit sandwhiches at work because its just not that easy to get another job.
I was speaking for myself Variable...
For me I have obligations, mortgage, credit card bill, lifestyle I've become accustomed to. I'd rather just keep on keeping on. Besides I at least get to post on the boards with you mooks.

It's possible good taste doesn't suit you
It’s possible. He was too creepy for me to tolerate.

doesn't sound all that bad, then.
That's more of a problem with my whole life and not just this job, though. I'm like that about everything. As soon as I'm removed from the situation, I stop caring about it. And when I get back to the situation, say like this job, I care again. I have no desire to follow through on things. I have no idea what's up with that, whether or not it's a product of my ADHD or just a personality quirk but it's something I'd like to get over.
Except when I get home, I won't follow through.

EDIT: Dammit, guys.
Finding one of those is the tough part, Bogart. There are many ads up on Craigs List and Career Builder and such for basic entry level tech jobs, all stuff I can do with my eyes closed. Hell, one of my friends has changed job 4 times in the past 6 months because the jobs are out there. But at the same time, the reason is because she thought they'd be great jobs but she realizes she hates the place, so she goes somewhere else. I'm not sure I want to be doing that either.
Besides any job would be better than working fast food, that was a job of hell. I was peter gibbons when I worked fast food.
I feel the same about the steel factory i worked at for a month during the summer. Damn that place was shitty. I heard the owner had a boat crash with his speedboat and the speedboat of his brother in law. He also got his children and the children of his sister in hospital with that stunt. Sums up nicely how they valued safety regulations on the factory floor.

Switching jobs like that does not do one's resume much good.

I was mostly teasing you, sorry.
I don't know, maybe write down during the day what you hate about your job and then reread it when you get home. Maybe that brings back some of your anger and that'll motivate you to look up some other jobs?

False dichotomy olol.

Taxi Driver is great if you watch it as a comedy.
I hear ya Dyna I had a stretch for about month once, and yeah I burned money to entertain myself and was still bored out of my mind.
Taxi Driver is a great movie, about a murderous pedophile. It's like Roman Polanksi if he killed people.

Where the fuck would I find a pen?

Did I say anything about Obo, me thinks the lady doth protest too much.
pleasepaypreacher.net
I've got a book backlog, a netflix subscription, and valve games to keep me from slitting my wrists.
I know but Oboro is the stereotype for someone asking for help and then not following through, or yelling at people, with the advice.
Also, I can change my avatar, location and sig whenever I want. Neener neener neener.
Yeah, I really liked it. It made me want to go watch The Conversation again for the fifth or so time.
