I did something that sometimes I question myself on; I quit my steady job.
Two years working as a Casino Auditor, paid well, good benefits, good people, but the schedule changed on any whim, boss' favoured too few but too much also, and I was once again denied my one weekend day (singular) off every few months. *sigh.
Was it pride? Had my patiance finally came to an end? Fished around a bit and a professional temp agency nibbled and finally bit. Got a temp position as a switchboard operator, but hell it is for the same pay, with less stress! Why the hell not?
Now I am looking down the schedule for Nocturne, much like looking down a cannon barrel as you watch the giant cannonball being loaded. Part of you wants to look directly at it, so you know what is coming; while another part wants to just run!!
I know there will be work, and I pray to the Gods that hopefully I'll be offered a permanant position doing something I enjoy. Hopefully. Not as a switchboard operator though. My first day and I was zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. BIG TIME!
So I made this bed and I must lay in it, but Hell, I have weekends I can snuggle with my Beloved guaranteed and won't be taken away....ever.
