Well congratulations are in order if it was something that needed to be done, ie a bad enviornment at work. None the less, I hope you find another job soon.

--Guys!--
Thanks for the concern, but I'm still working. I have a night job.. Which is why I can't hold down this daytime shit.. I just plain can't do it anymore. Besides, I want more time to myself, to get things done --maybe some school-- work on the car, and if I need extra money, I'll detail cars on the side. Other than that, I'm doing okay.

Sounds like a good plan. Glad to hear the night job is still going good too.

No, it's really a shitty plan, and probably a setback, ultimately, but.. Sometimes things gotta get worse before they can get better.
I was once told by a wise friend of mine that I'm always looking to hit rock bottom so that I know then, the only way to go is up. Seems like a good interpretation of self-destructive behavior.

It's only a shitty plan if you aren't aware of the situation you're in. You've made a move that is for your personal benifit, if you aren't happy with life, you gotta make it so. You have an ultimate plan and that's why even this was still a 'net' good move.

Tristan, hang in there, doing stuff on the side that you enjoy is quite rewarding, I've found. I'm fixing computers in the area now (since no one wants to hire me
) and I'm making a decent bit of cash

Mark is now offering his professional transfercase and differential building and regearing services. Not to mention Lifting and lowering of all vehicles.
He goes on to say "I can lower a bus! Pass me that oxy/actelyne torch! NOW BITCH!"

Nah, I think it sounds like you made a good move. Sometimes you just have to move on. Being stuck in a miserable job is the worst. There's absolutely no reason to let yourself be miserable. I can relate because I absolutely hate my job right now. I'm also just about ready to quit and just get the hell out. Speaking on my own situation, I'll be going to Illinois in December to play music, maybe I'll stay... I don't know. But good luck to you Tristan, you'll do well and something will come out of it.
Edit: I swore
