>>508555103I just got fired too anon, since February. I trained my replacement. I was hired to be a foreman and I just couldn’t hack it; plus they paid me $22/hr which may be low but relatively it was high as other field employees were getting $15-$17/hr. At 80-100 hr weeks, I took home $2,000 a week on average. In 2024 I made $113,000. And I pissed it away by getting lazy. Job sucked anyway. I’ve been living back with my parents and gained 20 lbs. I’m already morbidly obese. I’ve paid for the the deposit to go to crane school twice, and missed class both times due to anxiety/laziness because I don’t want to get a job. I cried myself to sleep at 34 because I disappointed my parents again. I’ve been a bum at home for over a decade now except for the year and a half I had a job and lived out of hotels. I really want to go to university but I know I don’t have the discipline and fortitude. It’s my biggest regret. I now have to confront my psychiatrist on how to convince him to keep giving me ADD meds without a job. My room is a mess.
But I still keep going every day. I need and plan, and so do you anon. We’ll never get out of this if we don’t take charge of our lives and confront our flaws.
