@Mischief: I'm kinda surprised that the travel lobby hasn't forced the other indistries to change cause the would make way more money with people traveling more. I feel like whenever there is a 3 day weekend people go crazy for it and plan a trip. [/color][/size][/font]


Would be nice, unfortunately normally I work 6 days a week and only get one day off.

@Mischief: Oh my gosh that's so much. Just for one job or do you have two?

Was depression, money was alright but was always tired.
Pretty much work and bed, it's not a way to live.

@Mischief: Agreed. It's not a way to live at all. It was awful when I had 3 jobs. They were all part time. I wish I could have just had one with more hours. But it was 2009-2011 so of course I didn't have a lot of hours.

    Guhh, I couldn't imagine having to work three jobs at once. Just one full time with some side project obligations were enough for me. //holds up her hands in defense

Yeah, can be really hard getting a full time job, they're so few, and when one turns up so many people apply.

@Mischief: I totally agree. That’s one of the reasons why I left my home state of Florida the only opportunities for me there was retail even with a college degree unless I wanted to be a teacher or be a nurse I pretty much only had the options of working retail.

Can't blame you tbh, hope you found better work opportunities after moving?

@Mischief: yes I did. I’m about to start an office job at a transit agency and the pay is miles better than what I got paid in Florida. It’s poverty wages down there. What state are you in? I’m in DC now and I love it. Yes it’s more expensive (although the south is getting more expensive by the day) but the pay is much better and my husband and I live car-free. Plus there are a ton of free things to do here.

@Mischief: sorry for assuming. Just the way you knew about FL made me think you lived in the US.
I used to live in the UK. I went to Uni there. I was in Preston at University. (UCLan)
My husband is also British.

@Mischief: That's funny. I studied Japanese there. Ngl, it's not that organized of a school lol.
Did you happen to go to Uni? Is he from Preston? We would always call it De-Preston cause of the shitty weather.

@Totalanimefan:
Yeah it is, think he studied film and tv.
And no never went to uni, went to college that is about it.

Had parents who wanted me to get a job, and bring money in. So was discouraged from it.
And north west has shitty weather in general, and no he not from Preston.

We both live in the north west though.

@Mischief: yes the weather in that area sucks lol.
I dated a guy from Blackpool. And my now husband is from just outside of Liverpool but he also lived in Birmingham for 8 years and Preston for 2 (with me) so he doesn’t sound like his from Liverpool. Just more like general northern accent and how add a little bit of American to it lol
