Despite all of the uncertainty of being unemployed in this job market, on Wednesday I realized that I was very happy that I never had to see any of those people again. I am less stressed out, less annoyed, and more sociable-feeling than I've been in a long time. I joked a lot about my job being soul-sucking, but the longer I'm out of there, the more I realize that I may have been on to something.
So, my soul is slowly recovering, but my bank account needs some work. Now that I have some time to do things, I am not doing much of anything due to money worries. I have some savings in the bank, and I have over a week of temping under my belt, but I know that I have to think about it, because if I don't have a job in Feb I will most likely have to give up the apartment and move back in with the 'rents. Which would be dire, but it does have the advantage of being...You know, free. In the meantime I can pay rent for the next 3 months unless I need to go to the hospital after my insurance runs out Sunday, so life is pretty damn good. I wish I'd had more in savings, I had 6 months rent behind me when I moved, but the last couple of months have been hectic and I had taken some money out to cover stuff. So, there you are: if you are worried about losing your job, or eager to move on to another one, you MIGHT want to be careful how you spends the monies.
I have been trying to think of someone at the old job I would be interested in talking to, but I find that there is no one I care to talk to. The one person who might be a bit interesting is in danger of being fired herself and has health troubles, so I don't want to go asking her to do anything for me. The rest of them, I could care less.
