We'll be Right Back...(Blog Style Post About my Current Humdrum Affairs)

 

Hey y’all. Sorry I’ve been away. It started in September as I was trying to file a lengthy complaint about some serious stuff that happened a long time ago. It took weeks to research and gather evidence and make the arguments. Unbelievable amount of emotional  turmoil for me. I cannot get into it here. I don’t have the outcome yet, but for me it is really just one step in a series of steps of a long ordeal. This I will do one step at a time since I can’t focus my entire life around this, but I, as everyone else, have to live mine. That led into needing some time off, which led into me trying to figure out what I’ll do in the near future in terms of job and living. I need a more balanced life in the interim of now and planning on going to Europe to study (and to permanently move to) next year. However, this is tough right now, especially given that we have the COVID thing going on and many places are just not hiring anymore. Getting my own apartment here, even far from downtown is expensive. Due to the current economic conditions, I can’t change my somewhat crappy job too easily. 

What was supposed to be temporary has now set in as one of my only options, and honestly, I’m suffocating a bit. I don’t like it, nor the pay, nor the rent, nor the living conditions, nor the lack of a good place, and so forth. As I said I plan on doing a Master’s degree in Engineering next year (not a guarantee) but until then I still have almost a year of this to put up with, and I have to save money. Need to cut down on the champagne and smoked salmon (XD well not really, I don’t have it every day XD).

                                                             I can enjoy myself a little can't I?

Aside from that I’ve been brushing up on and doing computer coding, which might become a job for me someday as a Software Developer. The nice thing about that job is that in many cases you can do it from anywhere in the world, as long as you have a laptop and an internet connection, and there is always lots of demand.

My job/living situation is so bad relatively speaking I don’t even see how I can go out and start dating…LMAO…it really starts to get to you over time. This place I’m living in has a terrible landlord, and roommates; it is starting to get to me. Crazy drama escalating - totally unnecessary. I have to get my own apartment, but I’m just trying to save money as I said. Anyway, those are my problems lots of people have their own versions of these, nothing too special about them.

When I complain and try to change jobs I tend to get the “a lot of people don’t even have jobs right now” which is true; the unemployment rate is very high in this city now, a lot of industries have almost no jobs available, and there is a lot of competition for what is. I really don’t have to work hard at my job though, though due to lack of sleep and general lack of enthusiasm, I have been slacking. Damn COVID-19 has me stuck. I can’t wait until I resolve these things, hopefully in the next month. I won’t be able to live and work where I currently am for another year, it would be like a house arrest sentence. This isn’t exactly what I call a life. Thinking about just doing some college program in computer programming to bolster my resume to have better chance at developer jobs, anyway it’s a long story why would I bore you with the details of these pathetic struggles? It’s a great backup plan if my other plan falls through. Software developers are in high demand, and can work from home 😊 or just about anywhere and I love to travel…Doing lots of other stuff too but I’d prefer not to talk here about that…

   Anyway, I’m sure everyone has their own problems and they don’t want to hear about mine. On the other hand, I’ve gotten a lot of stuff done, for this I’m happy. I’m moving in the right direction, albeit slowly.

  The damn BLM riots and all of this social justice BS is really coming to a head in the US, no? The world is slowly going to Hell and I’ve been watching on the sidelines; fighting my own battles. Honestly, I’m busy with stuff and don’t have much to post anyway (Well I do have some interesting and provocative ideas), but I will try my best to post a few times a month at least, and respond to everyone!

 

TL;DR

Sorry for being away if anyone cares, I got some long-term important stuff finally out of the way. Lots of drama that I still need to deal with. Need to save money to move away to Europe to study and live next year. In the interim I want to find a better job, but COVID-19 makes that difficult. Too much drama where I live now, have to find my own apartment but it can be expensive.  Getting better at coding. Yada, yada, yada, regular humdrum stuff that most people have to do. Sorry I’ve been away, will post at least a few times a month from now on. I will eventually get back if anyone posted some comments here. And hey if anyone wants to post anything, or for me to write anything shoot me a message!
