Decisions and Concequences

You know the worst part about having someone mad at you? Every time they say something your eyes light up just long enough for you to be let down again when you realize it wasn't you they were talking to. It sucks but its life. Now on to another topic.

I quit my job. The job that has given me less than 8 hours a week for the past month. The job whose last Biweekly check was 80 bucks. The job that paid minimum wage and got me nothing but headaches. Yeah, that job. Dairy Queen. While the facts remain that 160 dollars a month for the bullshit I was putting up with was not worth it... I quit a job in this economy. Stupid, right? So its natural for others not to agree with my decision, but I made my decision. And now that all the criticism is coming through I have to stand up for myself and that dreaded decision less I be crushed by all the comments and opinions of those who have nice, stable, well paying jobs.

What else can I do? I have talked about my problems at work with these people for a good while now. I have told them what was done in each situation and they agreed with me that it was unfair and it needed to be reported and that it was something that shouldn't be left unsaid. While the problems persisted and I hung on, these people still agreed with my opinion on the entire situation. After a series of incidences came and gone I was growing tired of dealing with it. I talked about different options and I talked about quitting. I asked advise and took the info into consideration. I told myself and them... I will deal with it now but if they give me one more reason to quit, I'm gone. They gave me another reason... and I stayed. Not even a week later, they gave me another one. THEN I left. It wasn't sudden. It wasn't random. It wasn't out of laziness and it wasn't because I was to weak to push through it. I don't deserve to be treated like shit and singled out while working less than 8 hours a week at minimum wage in a fast food joint. I'm sorry disappointed followers. I feel I am better than that.
