No more later
My tentative plan is to quit my job tomorrow. I will feel like such a loser, but I need to do this.
First of all, my sales are practically at zero percent. No, really. They are. I sold exactly NO Video Professor CDs last week, so I'm due for a memo - which will a.) almost fire me or b.) fire me. I was planning on taking a "medical release" beginning Dec. 16 anyway, but now seems to be looking like a better opportunity.
PLUS, and here's the really important reason for my decision, I need to work on my NYU application. I have until NEXT FRIDAY (Dec. 9), to write an incredible personal statement and a 12- to 15-page research paper on something, read: anything worthwhile. And let's not forget the "professional resume." What? I've been procrastinating on everything for weeks now. I'm a procrastinator by nature, but add to that exhaustion and frustration from work, the inability to write a well-researched paper due to lack of practice, and an intense fear of rejection and you've got ... me.
