Well, I went and did it.....
Well, I went and did it.....
I quit my job. Gave my resignation last week and final day is the 20th. It
was a great job but it was costing me my health. I was waking up every
morning dry heaving adn spending the day in a state of total almost nervous
breakdown. I had to completely give up anything guitar related. Family
related. It wasnt worth my health. They were paying me 58,000 per year. But
I had to decide, was the money worth the health issues. I think not. Some of
you here helped me decide as well.

Re: Well, I went and did it.....
$58,000 a year isnt a big money deal Jeff. I dont know what the cost of
living is in Mississippi? In California you would have been in the same
pay scale as a construction job laborer. You would be very hard pressed to
make ends meet with a wife and children.

Jeff, You did the right thing. I know I'm a lot older than you. I had a
ton of jobs, some good, some not so good. Near the end of my career I was
finding myself more and more in a position where I could turn some stuff
down, before I didn't do that....and it took it's toll, way too much so.
When I got sick, really sick, it was clear I would never be able to return
to doing what I was at that time. What amazed me was when I, and everybody
else, figured I was dieing (I had last rites three times) I never thought
about jobs, accomplishments or any of that crap. All I thought of was the
people who I had known, and I mean everybody. I wanted to say important
things to family and friends but I also wanted to be sure and make some kind
of contact with old friends and stuff. Your family, and your mental well
being are all that matter. Making money for some company, really for
someone else just doesn't make it. They pay you what seems like a good
salary at the time....but believe me, they are making way more out of your
had work. Go live life, it is way too short. Good Luck, PapaCarl

I'm not in the same boat, but I can understand your situation. Sounds like
the best thing for you and those close to you.
Best wishes. :)

Hears how I look at jobs ( being in construction my whole life) it probably
applies to most jobs. They have no problem sending you down the road when
things get slow or there cutting back. That's the way it is, it will never
change, so learn where the "JOB" really sits on the ladder of importance. Me
it's right between putting strings on a guitar and yard work. I think it's
time to sit down and really figure out what you want to do. You just got a
small lesson in life a bump in the road. I changed careers at & 40 change
is good. What kind of hours were you working ? if I recall you were doing
hell hours. Sounds like you made a good choice, now just regroup and attack
from a deferent direction

No regrets. I stayed in a job like that for way too long. All the
concerns about security flew out the window the day I quit. Happiness
& health is way more important than security and a nervous breakdown.
Well done!

I was a bookkeeper for over 10 years until i decided i hated it. I came to
the conclusion it was going to cost me more in therapy then it was worth
(bookkeepers don't make much)
I've been retired for about 3 years now and never regreted leaving that job.
If i did go back to work it would be in landscaping or house remodeling.
Something working with my hands and rewarding.
