I can only assume that things worked out in the end.<br /><br />@Margaret, I agree, getting all worked up doesn't solve things.

A lot of reflection and really understanding life.<br /><br />@Sharp Little Pencil, good for you. I'm glad you saw it was unacceptable and was able to walk away. Some people would have stayed in the job.<br /><br />@Brian Miller, yes life goes on, it's hard when everything can be so overwhelming. Still learning to embrace the moment and learn the lesson.<br /><br />Thanks everyone for the comments.

That freedom from a job you hate can be a good thing.<br /><br />I was fired from a restaurant once and I shouted, "Hooray! I win!" on my way out. (Problem: I would not have sexual relations with the boss, and he was a hairy old... yeacccch!)

That ...All I knew and cared<br />To know was this moment<br />That will flow effortlessly<br />Into the next <br /><br />The moment one gives to reflect on some irritants can be a powerful force.
