Brave, or foolhardy?
Jan. 10th, 2007 11:23 amPRO quitting job on Monday:
+Hate job. Job drives me batty. Have become very dull person who does nothing else but talk about how much she hates job.
+Would get to go to Peg2, see wonderful friends, see London again, do something for self for once as should have done right after college, instead of going straight into job.
+Would have time to regroup, work on novel, find new job.
+Honestly do not think I would have too much trouble finding new job (if not necessarily comparable job). ETA: I've been looking at what else is out there for about two months. There's stuff, freelance work at the very least.
+Have enough saved to last six months or so, so money not an immediate issue.
+Am 22 years old. Perfect time to take risks.
CON quitting job on Monday:
-Job = money coming in. No job = no money coming in.
-Have been at job six months. Too soon to quit?
-Two weeks post-giving notice will be intensely unpleasant.
-Have to have more dental work (starting tomorrow, ugh). Insurance ends when job ends.
-May not be able to find as good job. (In terms of pay, position; environment would almost certainly have to be better.)
-No more swag, or opportunities to mail stuff for free. (WHAT?)
-Am 22 years old. Oh, what a perfect time to fuck things up for yourself!
I keep completely convincing myself of one choice, then turning around and convincing myself of the other. I feel like I'm standing at a precipice. Do I take that leap of faith? What do I do?
Y'all can pretend this is like a 'Choose Your Own Adventure' or something. "If you think Trin should quit, go to page 42. If you think Trin should stick it out, go to page 13." *weak laughter*
Seriously, I almost made a poll for this, but then I realized that if I actually made a life decision based on an LJ poll, I would have to have my limited adult credentials revoked.
