    A little bit too far NW for them.
    My former employer. They pull a lot of pods.

    Me too. Almost quit Friday, really stressful bullshit day, I'm tired of it. I'm to the Point where I just think I need to try something different anywhere even if it's for a little less money. My mentail sanity and happiness is more important than the convenience of where I work. The only way I'm making any money now is with overtime and I hate the hours I work so I could work for a little less and have a life and be happy. I get no respect where I'm at, just give them more but I don't get any more, time to go. But it's scary to make a financial change in these times but I'm tired of being fucked with and treated like shit.

    But I did sleep in and wake up to my girl bringing me a big cup of coffee in bed. But my mind quickly went to my job situation and worry about what to do.

    Just remember it will all work out in the end, might not be how you want it to but it will work out.

    Yeah it sucks, but you’re not doing yourself any good by putting up with this bs, day in and day out. Time to go, you’ll find something better, and it will all work out in the end. Just hang in there, get on that computer and start searching for another job, Indeed, Glassdoor are just a couple to check out. Hard to believe in this day and age when everyone is screaming and hollering for drivers that you get treated that way, they are in for a rude awakening when ya tell them to kiss your ass for the last time !!

    Yeah thanks guys, I appreciate the kind words. I'm gonna upload my resume to indeed tomorrow and I found a place nearby that I'm going to apply to. Pays better than what I'm making. Probably a lot of drop and hook but I'm OK with that. I think it's 5 days a week too. Fingers crossed on this one. It's for a box company so light loads too.

    Time to pull the plug on that job. Everything happens for a reason. You’re getting hints so stop being stubborn. Something else awaits you behind door number 2. Open that mo’fucka and go in. :thumbsup:

    I'm dreading going into work today. Fucking hate the place. Just so tired of the bs. I uploaded my resume to indeed yesterday and already applied to one place. Well see what happens. Still looking. It's hard to bite my tongue but my day of reckoning is coming. Can't wait to drop my keys on the bitches desk and say I quit!
