@Shadami:
I FEEL THIS
I don't have time for my life because of the job I have. I don't have children, but I can hardly do my crafts cause I'm gone 11 hours a day.
I die inside. It sucks.
I wish I could just be paid well to be an artist, but even then, I hardly have time to work on my audience building ;v;
I get so fatigued to draw as much as I'd need to, to stay relevant

@Jolly: That's tough. Is $15 just the starting wage with no exp? Maybe you would get paid more? Or maybe just work one day at the mattress place and work the full time government job?
Or save money now so that you can afford a few months working in an office instead? I'm not sure what your next steps should be. You could stay at the government job for a year and use that exp to move into the private sector with the exp?
Thanks. I hope it goes well for both of us.

@Atropa Belladonna:
It was! I've been trying to cut back our grocery bills while still being healthy. Its taking a lot of brain thinking but we did it <3
granted our dishes could always be more flavorful if I add more to them, but it was probably healthier because I didn't do that! and still taste good

@Totalanimefan:
Thing is, at my job I'm REQUIRED to work there full time. If they knew I was considering another career path, they'd probably find the nearest reason to fire or lay me off The company is in the mindset of "if you're not with us 100% then you're not with us at all". Its even in my script I have to memorize for "tests" that we take (to brainwash us).

1. Believe in the Customer
2. Believe in the Product
3. Believe in yourself
4. Believe in the Company
5. Believe that Sales is an honorable profession

WHICH I cant say I hate THIS part of the test, cause its a good mindset to be in to be a good and honest sales person~ It just gets turned around on you if you ever doubt the job itself.

But yeah I think the best thing is just keep saving like you say! I might end up relying on my husband's job. They're treating him so well <3
They already want to promote him as soon as he's been working there long enough to qualify. That will give me more wiggle room possibly ;;
(I'm just impatient in nature)
I'm blessed that he's good at customer service and he doesn't hate it, cause gosh darn it seems like its the only thing that pays aside from delivery drivers

@Jolly: yes exactly. But I'm stuck in a weird reverse in that I don't have a job at all because of life also getting in the way of life. xD
I am desperately working on making everything connect in a way that i can at least juggle everything less stressfully

@Jolly: That's so toxic. Maybe you should leave for an office job once he has that promotion. :)

@Totalanimefan: Going down to Portland to spend time with my boyfriend for his birthday. He's driving up today, and we're leaving tomorrow morning.
We're gonna stay with his parents tomorrow night and go see some friends I haven't seen for like 4-5 years (stupid pandemic), and then Friday morning meeting more friends for brunch, and then driving back to Portland!
It's gonna be a busy trip, we already have a concert and at least one movie planned XD

@Shadami:
Makes total sense. I hope you find that balance before long! Sometimes change takes time but sometimes opportunities can just... pop up outa nowhere very suddenly XD keep working hard and you'll get there!

@Totalanimefan:
Yes, depending how much the promotion is, I would 100% be looking for something else! His job also helps with moves, so we've been keeping all sorts of options open. Maybe we're addicted to change XD

@Alchemists Fire:
Safe travels!! Yay vacation :D

@Shadami: Thank you so much! I can't wait to see him tonight ♥

@Jolly: Thank you! Thankfully work is quiet so far today (working from home, doing remote support), so I've got time to do other things xD
