Today was officially my last day at the shop. We're losing money and need to cut costs and without a doubt, I'm the biggest expense we have. I'm pretty okay with it. It sucks that my parents are losing their investment, but that's really my only concern. I'm pretty good at bouncing back. In the meantime, I've got some cash saved up so I'm gonna bum around for a bit. It's been a stressful 18 months or so. I haven't quite made up my mind on what to do yet. My passport is expired, so international travel is out, but I haven't ruled out driving out to Colorado or New Mexico and camping out just yet. Frankly, I don't really know what to do without a job. I've only really had joe-jobs, but still, I've had them pretty much non-stop since I was 16. I've never really been without a job and not have something to go to. I could go back to Shuttle to tide me over until I find something, but quite frankly that part of my life is over. The next job I get I want to keep for a good 5 or 10 years and have it be one that's good enough to do the things I want with it. Buy a house, have time for travel and the ability to see things that I've wanted to see for a long time, maybe be able to support a family should that time arise. Mostly, I just want something that makes me happy. No job is perfect, but I like working. It makes me feel good. Lots to think about in the next few weeks.
