RE: Its been a month!

in #rambling7 days ago

Well it is two months and two days now. Been really frugal, the runway is longer. Had stuff I wrote more recently with an update.

Congrats on your desertion of employment. It isn't the stupidest choice someone can make, not by a long shot. If you don't want to go get STRONK, just go for a walk in the morning and the evening, the endorphins will fight against whatever depression looms.

You don't need permission from anyone to start doing anything, you just go and do it. :)

The number is stable, for the time being, but it will go down the next time I need to put fuel in the car. With what is going on in the world today, I am anguishing for that moment... at around $2.2 / litre of fuel at the moment.

Don't worry, the Israel stuff should escalate to nuclear apocalypse long before you run outta cash ;-)

Yeah there's a lot more to my situation... if they cave and give me a bit of what I tried to negotiate, I might stay. Me not working means my wife has even more pressure to work which right now would be very selfish of me.

For context, Tuesday, Saturday & Sunday she was at work until 2-4am. Last night, home at midnight, then a phone meeting at 12:30 until 3am. She then woke up earlier than me me, around 6:30am, straight to home office to work. Work culture can be insane here.

So, me sitting around at home going 'I think I'll take a mental health walk' just doesn't... vibe lol. I gotta give her the window to quitting this whole grind.

High knees on the spot, then :P In another room. Crazy work culture.
