I recently was "released" from my job not too long ago (friday) and I feel great.
Not that I didn't like my job, but there's a certain joy to be felt when something ends. Mostly the joy (for me) comes from knowing that something new is on the horizon. Also, I like to think about where I'll be 3 months from now. I get excited thinking about how I may or may not make my rent, How I'm going to put gas in my car to get to the interviews and what kind of crappy job interviews I'll have to endure until I'm found "suitable" to be hired. I can't even wait to see what kind of neurotic boss and backstabbing employees I'll be working with months from now! Indeed, I can't wait to leave the comforts of my home to re-join the 9-5 world. The half hour lunches and the 15 minute breaks, the stale smell of the lunch room, the glazed eyes of the work force holding their cup of coffee and going over the "how was your weekend" conversations.
Yes, being unemployed is quite interesting indeed. Since I've become unemployed (3 days now and counting) I've found out new things.
1. Daytime T.V. is still just as horrible as when I was a kid staying at grandmas during summer vacation.
2. Is becoming a nurse or medical assistant really that fast and easy?
3. The day seems to go on turbo and end much faster when you have no job.
4. Lastly, I'd like to switch places with my cat, Mingus, because that fucker gets to lie around, eat and sleep all for free.
dammit.
Anyway. Yes, being unemployed...It's great. and if you should find yourself unemployed too, well come on over and lets have a drink!
Of course, you'd have to pay, cause you know...I'm broke.
over and out.
