I got a factory job and got hooked on pills. Was already in the process of studying for certs. But yeah I forgot about the IT thing after I got into pills heavy and was working **** jobs.

In a job you've said multiple times you can't physically maintain. What's your plan after you quit the job that you've said you're gonna quit? Get your certs?
long term, yeah, I don't plan on making it a career.

I can maintain it for long enough to stack up a decent sum though

The COVID-19 death toll in the United States has surpassed 350,000

Spanish Flu: 675,000 American deaths (source CDC)

US Civil War: 618,222 (conservative estimate- NYTimes)

2020 US Gun Violence Deaths (including suicide) 43,000

If gun violence deaths were only 20,000 per year since 1970 it’s still 1,000,000 people

About 655,000 Americans die from heart disease each year - CDC

About 600,000 Americans die from cancer each year - American Cancer Association

I couldn't believe it when I heard. I was sure he was already dead.

Yeah. He's one of those people I could've sworn I heard died several years ago.

you make it through all that now you're like damn near 30 and if you're lucky there's still a job for you that you'll hate
I don't even know if I'm still gonna go the IT route but if I wanted to I feel I could get a cert while holding down a job. It doesn't require actual schooling. Also, I can very easily quit this job and get one with less hours if need be. After I left the dog pound it took me less than a week to get this job. That's how temp agencies are.

Either way point is I'm gonna keep trying to make more money or die trying. If I had the same mindset you guys do I might as well just go back to being an addict or better yet just put a gun in my mouth. I'm not afraid of trying something and failing. But if I'm not going to try anything at all then why bother even continuing to punch a clock or keep doing the basic **** to stay alive?
