I quit my job. Dumbest thing I ever did. Even if they did merge with another company and completely ruin my 401, all the benefits I earned in the 10 years I was there. Even though I went from a Supervisor to basically cleaning out cubicles. I thought my skills would get me a better or atleast a decent job, quick. I should have known better. Man (or Woman, in my case) plans. God Laughs. God is laughing hysterically right now. I was living paycheck to paycheck before but what I have now is far worse. I have to pay a $365.00 school loan, that is under MY mother's name and in DEFAULT because she never tried to talk to the lenders when I asked---no make that---begged her to! She figured it was my problem since she took them out for me. So, I have to pay them. I have to pay my rent. Actually, I haven't even paid it yet. I have electricity to pay too. But the worst thing is I had to borrow money to do my laundry and I can't even afford deodorant and soap. Have I learned my lesson? You bet! I am hoping the universe knows this because I am trying so hard to find a job. I am a hardworker and I've never had to sit around the house like this, feeling like a loser for trying to take a chance and do better. If I could punch the crap out of myself I would. I just wish that for all the years I put into that company I could have had a cushion. Unemployment insurance or something. I guess I am not looking for help so much as a miracle. Let this be a lesson to people. Don't be stupid like me. A bad job is better than NO job.
