Solid Sonic 08/09/21 12:13:51 PM #1:	I took today off for my birthday but my job dominates my mind because of how unpleasant it makes me that I just spend all my time thinking about it. I haven't done anything fun today at all. If I wasn't going to get a COVID test later I probably would have just canceled my day off and gone into work. At least that way I wouldn't spend all day speculating what's waiting for me when I return (in a weird way work is a distraction for how unpleasant my job makes me, even though it's doing that job that's driving me up the wall). I really want to quit... --- It is more important to use your anonymity to upset other people than it is to do anything productive. <cite>Solid Sonic posted [p:956921057] in My day off...

Solid Sonic 08/09/21 12:19:14 PM #6:	I work as a tier I helpdesk jockey. I can't quit because I need stable income and this job is overpaying me (I think).

Solid Sonic 08/09/21 12:25:51 PM #11:	I bring home around $950 a week and my monthly bills add up to around...$600, I guess? Ish (I calculated this before but things changed since then). Electricity is the most dominant of my bills but it shifts around (sometimes it's my Internet/cable bill that is more expensive, it depends on the month). I don't have to pay for housing itself, just maintaining the monthly expenses, I own the house outright. --- It is more important to use your anonymity to upset other people than it is to do anything productive. <cite>Solid Sonic posted [p:956921392] in My day off...

Protopet 08/09/21 12:28:17 PM #12:	Just play some games or do something to clear your mind for a bit. A day not working is an off day well spent. Tbh I find myself doing the same thing every Sunday.
