It's all piling up.
13 years ago
I really don't like to be a downer, but I really just wanted to rant a little here.
Work lately has been treacherous. I got a "promotion" a couple weeks ago which basically was double/triple the work(untrained for position), and massive responsibility thrown onto my shoulders. The whole thing has taxed on me greatly, and somewhere along the way I tried to stop caring about it, but it's all piling up on me, and just maintaining the status quoe is difficult, let alone actually trying to turn my project up from the burning wreck it is becoming. Not to mention I heard Im probably going to be demoted soon(though that might come with some very needed help to tackle the work).
This got me thinking that my time working here is coming near an end. Either from me leaving, or finally being fired from my job. So, I'm 25, never gone to college, and have no idea what I want to learn or start a career in. With financial uncertainty, and no gut feeling of what I want to do with my life. I feel like I've painted myself into a corner by not going to school, and I still don't know what I want to do with schooling.
I could potentially move back up to the Yukon to live with my parents for financial security, working in a shitty low paying job with next to 0 social life again. I could try to go back to school, take out a student load, become helplessly sunk in debt living in the lower mainland still, or I could maybe try to just.. stay the course working in nondescript no training required sort of jobs like I fell into this one.
Im sure things will turn out alright, I got good friends, my parents would help me out in dire circumstances, but it's kind of all accumulated into a giant ball of stress just today.

College isn't always the true way to go honestly, but I could just be saying this because I'm a drop out.
