Where to go from here? I got laid off…

I got bad news yesterday my job will be elimitating my position and my last day is Feb 9th. It sucks and I was so upset yesterday people arguing with me didn’t help. I wound up drinking some to deal with the bs and I was so upset it wasn’t even funny. I’ve written 20+ books but haven’t sold enough to quit my day job. This is the second time I’ve been laid off and it sucks since now I’ll be revamping my resume and applying to other places. It also means more articles will be written and more time to work on my books. I plan on even cleaning my place, filming Youtube videos and even more streams. It is a blow knowing they let me go without me having another job. But i’ll be using this time to write more books, articles and film more Youtube videos and stream on Twitch. 

I just moved so it came at such a shit timing. But I hated getting up early and dealing some of the people there made me want to scream I was stressed beyond belief at the job. This is such a hard time and not alot of people understand either. Yes, I know it means looking for another job I’m not stupid. People telling me what to do is one of my pet peeves. It just shows how tired I am of doing a resume, finding a job, and being let go or fired and working for others suck so I’ll still be working on my side hustle on the side. I’ve also noticed people will only comment to criticize when it is easier to just scroll on. Not all of us need a lecture on what things are and since this is my page i’m not going back and forth wasting my energy anymore on people who argue or criticze either. Also, just goes to show people aren’t prepared to lose a job either. And it will make me feel awful enough. I am pretty sure it is burnout and that is the worst. I do get a break which is nice I’ll try to post a few articles a day since I do want to write books and articles full time. Means I gotta take what people say with a grain of salt too. Also, it gives me a new perspective about what I want in a job, and one of the things I’ll be doing is tweaking my resume. I’ve been told to apply to other insurance places but I’m tired of day jobs. The whole working for others is tiring and it is a never ending loop. I know it will take a while so in the meantime I can focus on my books, articles, and videos. Expect more content!
