So, I let Kalin know today that I am 100% definitely quitting Appion as soon as I can find a new job or once the new year gets here... whichever comes first. As I expected, he was very understanding and accepting of my decision, which I'm obviously happy about. He's always tried to balance the whole friend/manager thing as best he can, and I'm pretty content with the effort and support he's put forth to me, as one of his underlings.
That being said, I am quitting simply because of the fact that I'm not interested in refrigerant recovery. Nor will I EVER be. I thought maybe I'd grow interested in it as I learned more about it and it's applications and the technology used to advance it... no. Haha. In all honesty, I don't even give a shit about it. Kinda hard to care about keeping your job when you have no interest in the job that you do. It's even harder to actually keep your job, when you don't care about it, yet you're expected to. Blah.
SO! I've decided can support myself however I damn well please, and I plan on getting a couple part-time jobs doing shit I actually like. What a concept! The main two places I'm thinking about getting jobs at is a head shop, and a music store. The part-timeness will break up any monotony that I might have to deal with, while still providing me with enough income. Obviously, I'd enjoy selling music and drug paraphernalia to people way more than something I barely understand and am not interested in learning more about. Plus, if and when I get hired on at a head shop, I can most likely convince whoever I'm working for to sell my hemp shit! The future may not be bright and luminescent right this second, but I'm definitely feeling good about whatever chain of events I just set in motion. I feel freer (is that a word?) already :D
