So, its been a little over a year since I walked out of the car dealership without a job lined up or a clue as to what my next move would be. Since that time, I have seen a huge improvement in my overall level of happiness and a much decreased level of suicidal thought. Seriously, try selling cars. Youll see what I mean. I am definitely making less money now, but I have much more free time to enjoy the world, hang out with friends, and make fun of all of you on facebook. ;) I just received my first pay raise from FedEx, and Im not totally bored of the job yet. However, Im still pretty sure that I am destined for more. I want to make a difference in this world somehow, but first I must find the means that enable me to do so. I still believe I want to teach high school algebra and work as a caddy during the summers. Its tough knowing that I never had that person in my life who encouraged me to follow my dreams when I was younger, or supported me in the quest thereof. I feel that in a few years I will be able to follow my new dream of becoming a teacher, and eventually find that true happiness. Until then, I will basically be going through the motions of life one day at a time, but Im beginning to see that light at the end of the tunnel. Quitting a job without another lined up is something that totally goes against my intuitions, but doing so has paid off in a major way. Sometimes doing something that you would never do can help you gain a new perspective. If it only worked in fantasy football, thatd be great. So, regardless of what one may think from reading my facebook news feed, I am not totally angry at the world, only the morons who run it and the sheeple who allow them to do so. And no, I will not apologize for being a red-blooded American man who loves science, reality, beautiful women, fast cars, and rock n roll, not necessarily in that order. If my news feed offends you, stop following me. I love all of you, regardless of your quirky flaws. I have them too. Mine are just more brilliant. ;) This sounds like a post one would most likely write on New Years, but October kind of marks the beginning of my fiscal year, as it was the beginning of my new lease on life and an exit from the car bizz. I learned a lot in that business, and I dont have any regrets. It paid the bills for a good few years and I made many friends because of it. That being said, I wouldnt wish it upon my worst enemy. Wait, yes I would, but I only have one enemy, and its a dog, and Im not even sure he knows I hate him. So, yeah. Enjoy your weekends everyone, and know that its never too late to make a change for the better.
