What Did I Do?!

So I have been wanting to quit my job for some while because

1. It is not anywhere close to what I want to be doing
2. I work only 20 hours a week and with a 45 minute commute it's not worth it anymore
3. Work was making me feel so down! I won't go into it because it is a LONGGG story but it was.

Anyway, T and I talked about it and before he was telling me that I need to work because we are broke. But the other day he said I can quit. SOOOOOO,  I did it! I put in my 2 month? notice. I am quitting in the end of October. I am so excited but scared at the same time. I am going to be unemployed... but I am excited that I get to focus on school. I am also going to find a VERY part time job down here. Something that is 10 hours a week, preferably in a preschool or classroom setting.

I am super excited yet mortified at the same time.

We will see how it goes!

this is so exciting! maybe a little scary but it sounds like you have a plan and now you won't feel down because of your job :)

Good for you! It's never a good idea to stay with a job that just makes you down. I would be scared too! But, I think you'll be just fine! :) Good luck with school and finding that part time job! :)

Oh don't feel too bad. If it was literally bringing you down that much then I would look for a new job. :) Think of the new possibilities! Part time jobs are everywhere.

Know the feeling!! I have worked full time since I was 17... I'm 25 now. I got into dental hygiene school and had to cut my hours to 12 per week. Yikes!! I make nothing now... But it's okay. I can focus on school and I'm not stressed to the Max anymore! Sure, I miss the cash but not stressing and loving life more... Is so worth letting that go!
