If I could quit my job right now I would. I'm so unhappy and spend every minute thinking about what else I can do for a living.

Posted by Krusty (aka Krustylu) Jan 11 '22, 05:13

I've never been one to be depressed or sad about things. I just move on to the next thing.

But I feel so stuck and can't see any way to move to something better. I make myself sick to my stomach some days. This is all new to me and I hate every minute of it.

Really hoping things turn around for you! It's really tough to find yourself in this position -- nm - prayformojo Jan 11, 06:25
is there a Krusty Dental Fund we can send $ to? Should we set one up? Can it please have a non-paypal option? thx -- nm - mud Jan 11, 06:03 9
- ST was very generous last year and I was so very thankful. But that's not necessary, thank you! - Krusty Jan 11, 06:11 8
  - for $500, I will hit you in the mouth with a sledgehammer and hand you a box of Chicklets. -- nm - groiny Jan 11, 08:07
  - necessary or not, I would be happy to help. -- nm - mud Jan 11, 06:14 1
    - Thanks! :-) -- (edited) - Krusty Jan 11, 06:24
  - maybe we need a fund krusty to see a mexican dentist (is that still a thing, my former inlaws did that kind of trip back in the day). -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 11, 06:12 4
    - I've thought about it. :-( -- nm - Krusty Jan 11, 06:15 3
      - I mean, you would get to visit Texas. and see all the Texas things like, umm, hats and boots. -- nm - tRuMaN Jan 11, 06:16 2
        
        I think there are some European countries where it could be even better. I think Poland is actually cheaper than Mexico. - Krusty Jan 11, 06:23 1
        
        Poland or Hungry, but you have go to twice. still works out cheaper than all that work here. -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 11, 21:56
Hope a positive change happens soon, my man. -- nm - Shaun Jan 11, 05:58
Hang in there dude -- nm - eag Jan 11, 05:54
Big hugs. Keep looking for an avenue. We are here for you -- nm - Pippy Jan 11, 05:52
I've been there. Trust me, the other side exists, hang in there. (NM) - Marlowe Jan 11, 05:43
sorry, just know we are here for your rants, and not just about NY sports teams. - tRuMaN Jan 11, 05:22 1
- Thanks, buddy! -- nm - Krusty Jan 11, 05:36
That sucks. I’m sorry. -- nm - mafic Jan 11, 05:20
:( I'm so sorry man -- nm - ty97 Jan 11, 05:18
I'm so sorry. Do what you need to be happy and get out of this rut. -- nm - Inigo Jan 11, 05:14 10
- I need to get some new skills or education but also need to keep working to pay the bills. - Krusty Jan 11, 05:17 9
  - Just try to do one small thing each day to start a change. - Inigo Jan 11, 06:01 1
    - this is good advice, Inigo. nm -- nm - groiny Jan 11, 08:13
  - Can you take night classes? It might take a little while to finish something, but if you never start, you never finish. -- nm* - sycor Jan 11, 05:23 2
    - or even google certificates to get a foothold and feel momentum! -- nm - amanda jeans Jan 11, 05:26 1
      - I downloaded some Comp TIA+ study books thinking I could do something in IT. - Krusty Jan 11, 05:33
  - maybe the play is a new job, a change of pace that will allow you a new perspective. you could work retail or foodservice for a while to reset? - amanda jeans Jan 11, 05:22 3
    - Because of my ongoing dental issues I'm unable to work certain jobs. I'm not presentable and don't look trustworthy. - Krusty Jan 11, 05:27 2
      - Do you have a dental school close to you? Maybe you could get some work done on the cheap by letting students practice for classes. - sycor Jan 11, 05:39 1
        
        I went to the NYU Dental School and had some work done. It's very, very slow and not really all that much cheaper. - Krusty Jan 11, 05:47
