there's always heroin...
Choose Life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a fucking big television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on Sunday night. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats you spawned to replace yourselves. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?

piperboytoyno worries pal. good luck with whatever you decide! One more thing I did to numb the pain of boring work (no, not drugs), was taking on a personal design project, which i enjoyed doing, no money, but passed the time by better!

oh yes, room5 has the ticket, my absolute win win way to clear the design and creative blues is to collaborate with other designers.
search them out and just ask, you may find new juices spewing out all over you [pun intented]

thanks room five.
i do a lot of art projects on my own and help friends do design work too. so i'm happy sometimes.

v4, the incorporation is coming along, haha.
Yea, I mean it would kind of be stupid to walk away, maybe I'll just try and get fired.
I'm fully vested in 401K, however, since I always think I'm going to be dead soon I've invested nothing but like whatever they put in, haha.

i came to the conclusion there's no such thing as a perfect job.
every job i had, either it starts out really nice and fun or it sucks from the beginning, it all ends at the same place. i think i need a new hobby.

that is so depressing. I did freelancing for 3 years and i loved it. i did so much personal work and paid the bills with a few long term boring projects. i didn't make that much but was so much happier.

happiness at work?

freelance sounds best for what you want, it seems.

try an occupational hypnotherapist. Maybe he can make you think you were fishing all day, instead of being at work.

yeah i guess so.

Just rub one out in a bathroom stall whenever this wave of frustration sets in - you'll be free of worry for about 1 1/2 hours if you're like most guys.

my ideal would be a fine artist that is actually selling work. all day in the studio creating...
but i know i'd end up being a drunk.
