lmfao at that turn. i thought it was a good post. perspective is important. and the entire time i was a debt slave i would always remind myself i could be starving or being shot at. i still do and the fact that my life is different puts a smile on my face and a peace in my soul.

i am a caregiver in both senses. my dad owns an adult family home and takes care of the elders, now that the real estate market went to complete shit. he sold homes incredibility successfully for 27 years and thanks to the system he was suddenly out of luck and now has to wipe the shit from mean people's butts. fuck. ftl.

i run my garden for several cardholders but am qualified to help dad too.

i have always been very anti system... bills were only a problem when i was strung out on oxy. i dont have a cell phone and i do have solar panels. both of these things help with bills. "...bills? what bills?" that will be something i can say in the future.

self reliant, sustainably, and with autonomy.
that's how i try to live my life. that is the mantra.

and delivering pizzas is a great job. the tips are awesome, you get to listen to sit down, listen to music, and drive for half the time. to top that off if you are broke as fuck it is nice to come to work and get a change pouch with 40$ in it which you can spend part of and then replace with tips as you get them.

for a debt slave job pizza delivery is the luxury edition. leather seats and sunroof.

i want everyone to have more information, more viewpoints and thought for themselves. i am not going to spur this in as many people if i put ads on my videos.

though some people who really need the money and do a good service on YT, i can understand that. a nice lady in canada who i sub to, mfromcanada1 she has morgellons and no work so she reads the news that the main stream does not and she generates some money for her self with adsense and i could care less. shes a real person, legit, and needs the $. justified easy.

so if it was a necessity i might consider it but that is a last resort as that is not the reason i made that channel.

work is work.

my job has gotten really intense lately, the guy who worked over me just left for a much higher paying job in the private sector and I got stuck with his ongoing projects. So to put it in perspective I (with a whopping bachelors degree and one year of experience at this job) am doing the job of a guy who has phd and about 20 years of biotech industry experience. Its a fucked up situation becasue the new boss at my job has zero fermentation experience (and yet he was made head of a FERMENTATION facility, which is really fucked up in my opinion but is typical of the university system because its not what you know but who you know). My job description/pay grade is for a lab tech but now all of a sudden I have to have conference calls with clients and make up and execute experimental plans, which is intensely stressful....

that's the problem with working hard and doing a good job, if you work too hard and do good work, the people in management just expect more of you.

i make 13.50 an hour an live pretty comfortably independantly. i found an amazing deal on a mobile home type deal (its basically a 700sqft 1bd/1ba hosue) in the good part of town. its all newly renovated with new appliances and shit for 400$ a month with water and trash included. before i found this place i was actually minutes away from signing a lease to share a crummy 2br1ba with an undergraduate for 400$ a month, i got the call about this place, went to see it and moved in that night. feels good to have my own place...

thats what i love about the south, i actually feel relatively successful here because the cost of living is so low (but thats not saying much when you live in a county where ~40% of people live below the poverty line)

if you want your career to go places, this is exactly want you want.

this happened to me, and as a result, I just got a promotion, plus a stellar review (annual performance reviews)

i got a 6% raise for the promotion, 4% raise for the review (culminating in over a 10% raise!). this coupled with my xmas bonus, my next paycheck is going to be JUICY

I currently make 12 and that extra 1.5/hr would make all the difference in the world.

I had the worst night at work last night, it was one of those nights where you're thinking of walking out every hour, the only reason I'm working is to keep my girlfriend and family happy, I dont want to let them down. It sucks working your arse off when you dont give a shit about the money. 11pm til 8am, and I have to do the same shit tonight and the night after............... ..
