I'd usually post this on /r9k/ but since that board is good as dead at this point, i'll post here
who here's just recently had a big happening in their life? I just walked out of a job, ragequit really. Literally two hours ago. I've been working this fucking sandblasting job for 10 months, and the past 3-4 months my boss has been blowing smoke up my ass about moving me to a different dept because i'm smart and good with mechanical stuff and electronics and pretty much anyone can do sandblasting. He hired on a guy to replace me, had me train him for literally 3 hours, then moved HIM to the electrical department. I shouldve quit then, but i kept blasting for him, suffering every fucking day for another month, until they FINALLY hired a real replacement. I train up the replacement, work for two hours in my new dept, then my boss has me cover for a forklift operator who had to leave temporarily for personal reasons. I covered that motherfucker for three days. Then, yesterday, I finally got back to my "proper" posistion in the new dept, and not 5 minutes later I get called down for blasting. New guy is sick. Today he's even sicker apperently, puking up blood in the fucking hospital. I worked all day but then on my last two hours of my shift i fucking snapped. Started swearing profusely and banging on the wall with my fists. Then I realized i could just walk out. I packed up my shit, clocked out, and told my boss I was leaving. Felt like i was on autopilot.
it's been two hours later and I feel like i've made a horrible fucking mistake. At the same time I've been at this point 3 times in the past few months, just never actually went through with quitting. I feel like maybe I've fucked myself over and i really was going to get to work in the better department tomorrow, but at the same time thoughts like that are why i havent quit at times like when they put my trainee where I was supposed to go.
Anyone else make big questionable decisions lately? also vent thread.
