I got one of the few jobs where practically paid not to work, or when don't work and not the fault of the employee.
Is why I stay with this job for as long as I have, for although really have no love for what I do anymore, it's the schedule that keeps me around.
Gone are the days where I work a job that works you silly every day of the week, yet still to poor and broke to get ahead in life.
Going forward I refuse to ever work physically harder to prove any stupid point to anyone.
Working physically harder means nothing as you age, unless there's a pay increase to go with it...and most times there's not, especially if a hourly worker.
That work harder crap is for teenagers just starting off in life who probably need the discipline.
I don't need anymore discipline, what I need now is money and lots of it, but if can't get it through job, than next best thing is to work as few days a week as possible while still basically getting a full time check.
That way I have time to relax, explore other options, maybe get some passive income coming and and ect.

I've eaten more today than I have in days, something about working 'out there', when you're driving around delis, food is everywhere, it's hard to resist buying junk food when it's all in your face.
It's good, costly, but I don't need it.
But it's no fun working while feeling hungry.
But I think it's mostly in the head, although when working you do tend to burn more calories, thus are more hungry vs laying around all day doing nothing at home.

I think one of the worst feelings in all the world is like partying way to hard and long on a night where have to work the next day, and then getting up to go to work with only 2 hours of hard sleep, if that, and still kind of buzzing from the night before.
If a desk job that would be bad enough, but imagine if a blue collar worker, with the noise, the precision you need to do your job, or driving.
It's why it's never good to party or drink hard, if have to work the next day.
That's kind of a 'no duh' post.

I'm so not interested in just a 'job' anymore
I was scowering the employment adds just out of boredom, and nothing peeked my interest, nothing.
I'm so not interested in just a 'job' anymore.
Maybe cause a bit older now, and see the vanity in it all?
Just the idea of first shrinking yourself by proving you're worth getting hired.
Then being trained by someone who's no where near creative or ambitious as you are.
And then like just knowing no matter what you do, how hard you work, that you're only getting paid 12-17 or so an hour, yuk.
what a waste of time, strictly speaking of energy spent.
It's one thing younger, in school, doing so to gain experience yadda yadda yadda, but it's another thing if older, and get up out of place to go get paid like a 3rd world servant?
Especially now days with all the non labor ways to earn money.
I don't think traditional employers realize how many ways younger people can earn money online, through social media, sponsors, sales, online stores ect, 100's of ways...grants, ect.
I mean unless really young, and just thrilled to be out of house for a few hours, away from parents, to just go work for Mr Smith at the hardware store, unless fit that profile, that just doesn't appeal to many older types anymore.
I mean if so poor, that need a second job, not sure that second job going to matter all that much.
Not to mention the energy required to work two jobs and the toll it'll have on your health.
I don't know, I don't know what I'm going to do as I get older..
Cause work just seems 'yuk' to me now, unless that work actually builds wealth.

I have the weirdest work schedule, work one day, than off the next, then work the next two...it just kind of screws up my vibe.
Don't get me wrong, I like having tomorrow off, but I didn't know I'd have tomorrow off until the very last minute.
It just throws off my vibe, cause you get in that rigid work mode, even after work, when you know you have to work several days in a row, you kind of get in a rigid work mode mentality, and it can take a minute to get out of it and just relax, once you find out you don't have to work.

Ever just wake up for work, after being off for a while, and the prior day was on such a 'high' of life, engaging in stuff you enjoy, and then suddenly you realize you have zero use for the day before you?
That's how I feel now.
I'm so not mentally into this job I have to go to here soon. It just feels like such an interference to my life right now, but hey, one has to pay bills...darn.

I also know this, the pain I was in has something to do with the work environment.
And work environment for me is just being 'out there and about'.
I drive, so work environment can include me pulling over to eat food.
In other words it's in the food, processed snack type of food and or drinks...
Cause I feel better now, and right when body feeling better, complete and whole, sucks how then I get thrust back out into the environment that made me ill to begin with.
Work can kill you, not activity, but I do believe certain work environments can really make people ill.
It's why going forward, will do my best not to eat anything out there on the road, and only drink water.
(ye right)

I've even realized that bad toxic chemicals 'man' or industry puts into foods, as in flavoring, preservatives, coloring ect, can have more of a harmful effect on your body than a few beers do.

I was like on cloud 9, until saw schedule, and have to work tomorrow, yuk!!
I was on cloud 9, thought I had tomorrow off, feeling high, free, liberated, then suddenly I look at work schedule, and oh my gosh, have to become a mindless slave tomorrow, wow....wow.
Just glad I looked at schedule early enough to still get good sleep.
So glad I looked at schedule, otherwise may of stayed up super late drinking and caught off guard tomorrow.
Oh well, so goes life.
Just submitted second book...I so need a passive income stream, cause this wake up and go to work stuff is getting so very old.
It's an insult actually, and rich people know that to be true, they laugh at us still stuck in the 9-5 labor class...they laugh at us.
Oh well...time to stuff belly, get fat, since I know have to work tomorrow.

I know I need another job, I really do, but as I scan c/l for adds, none excite me in the least bit, none.
It all just seems like mindless work to me.
The older you get, the more work just seems mindless...especially lower end semi skilled type of jobs.
When younger, you're always h-rny, and so the fun part of showing up to work is the flirting aspect.
But if a male, and work jobs where no females are around, nothing fun to go to work for, unless maybe some of the guys are 'fem' looking and acting.
But ye, at my age, work just bores me.
I need to get a paid media job, that might excite me, maybe i just need to look in unusual places for the job I really want, like maybe working at a radio station or something...that might be fun, but I doubt such a job would pay very well at all.

I think I'd make a fun tour guide, and may actually look into doing so.
I just need a break from what I do now, I need to work in an environment where people are happy, and receptive to laughing, and or interesting story telling and all.
I think it would be a fun job, I may actually give it some thought.

I just want a job where I actually come home feeling happy, like i actually changed people moods for the better.
This current job I have, I get home and just feel so dry and emotionally empty on the inside.
Just working around or hauling stuff and things, just doesn't do it for me anymore.

I don't have issues with employment other than I hate being employed right now.
I like the pay check that I earn with my labor, but that's it.
I also like my boss, it's just the job I don't enjoy at all anymore.

Not really an employment issue, but today, my boss, or late tonight, they were playing, airing, my 'show' over their SUV stereo system, and my music videos.
I was embarrassed cause that stuff, the stuff I do away from work, isn't really meant for his consumption.
But they seem to dig it.
Regardless, I was still embarrassed.

I'll have like one hour to self, before having to hit the bed, cause had to move equipment to new yard, so that ate into my off time, but now new yard is closer to where I live, so now commute will be less than 10 minutes...means I can sleep in a bit later now...
