Want to run.
I'm getting powerful 'get the hell out of here' pulses again/more. I definitely need to find a better job, and probably just need to get clear of the computer business, because I can't take the sanity damage. Unfortunately it's really the only thing anyone has ever paid me very much (still not very much, but the most) to do or that I seem to be able to fake being good at (so far).
I did okay at Radio Shack when they let us actually fix things. running around to different stores every month or so for various missions was pretty cool. The money was crap then and is .. worse now by all accounts, not to mention that I'd have to get into a manager trainee program .. and I know better than to take responsibility for a store (even i sleep sometimes).
I really enjoyed teaching, and it's possible I'm good at it. I lack paperwork to do that in most common venues, and the prospect of striking out of my own is another essay (while an obvious solution to some problems ... there are obstacles). I'm pretty sure I would not be able to work within the education system as is, even if I had the paperwork.
As ever, any suggestions or ideas about fields of jobs from people who I have worked with or who just read this drivel are greatly welcome.
Job or work is a big part of it but the dissatisfaction and friction (etc) are bigger than that. It just affects everything since I have phone bills, car payment and kibble to buy every month. The things I signed up for to keep me Here a while longer are also keeping me here, which may not be so helpful to the greater goal.
