I Quit My Daytime Job Of 18 Years - GoFuckYourself.com

Spunky · 04-02-2005, 07:42 PM

Was a great union job.I was in the petroleum industry.Basically a pump mechanic and worked on aviation equipment.The money was good..3 bucks an hour for pension and all the benefits.It sucks working for the man..I hated it but it was reliable and stable income..It comes a time for a man to make serious decisions in life and I hope I did the right thing..wish me luck

jonpotz · 04-02-2005, 07:43 PM

best of luck to you.

fuck the man.

do your thing

sonofsam · 04-02-2005, 07:43 PM

good luck, but usually if someone quits their dayjob.. they are pretty confident in what they are doing... so you'll do fine

bringer · 04-02-2005, 07:46 PM

we can have day jobs? crazy
congrats on sticking it to the man

Shoehorn! · 04-02-2005, 07:46 PM

Congratulations and good luck man.

DateDoc · 04-02-2005, 07:47 PM

Best of luck to you!

Spunky · 04-02-2005, 07:48 PM

True enough..I always basically considered adult as a hobby and a good income suppliment..I've been offered another job with better money and 5 minutes away from my house..not sure if I want to jump right back in the rat race

OzMan · 04-02-2005, 07:48 PM

I'm sure you will do just fine

Mr Pheer · 04-02-2005, 07:49 PM

3 bucks an hour? I would have quit 18 years ago

Good luck in what ever career path you chose

AlienQ - BANNED FOR LIFE · 04-02-2005, 08:13 PM

Liberating isnt it?

MetaMan · 04-02-2005, 08:13 PM

ya fuck those kind of jobs, before i went fully online i was working in a freezer for a couple of years, make you realise what real work is like and how you dont want to do it.

good luck.

What's a "daytime job"?

tony286 · 04-02-2005, 08:30 PM

Why didnt you stay another 2 yrs so you could retire with a pension? If you havent kept up with current events. This isnt the most stable industry in the world. I wish all the best and good luck.

In a union you get vested after a certian amount of time.In my case 7 years.If you leave the union you can take out your pension and reinvest it in your own retirement RRSP.Depending on years of service the amount varies..if I stayed longer it could maybe rise another 500 bucks per month

Congrats. At least you are out of the union now. Unions are organized thievery/extortion rackets. So hard as it is to believe that you can be moving to a MORE respectable career by becoming a fulltime pornographer, you actually have.

So you still get your pension?? And staying another 2 years would have given you an extra $500/mth when you retire??
Of course, your pension probably isn't adjusting towards inflation either..
eitherway, good luck!

flashfire · 04-02-2005, 08:55 PM

good luck man, I'm sure it will work out

Thanks..I just run a few sites TGP/MGP and a bunch on MSN and yahoo..not really cutting it,so that's why I didn't pursue it full time.Trying with a localized mainstream site catering to executives..

Thanks
Well I have an option of taking out what was invested and placing it in a locked in RRSP..I still have another 20 years to work and that's where the 500 came from..The monthly payment only goes up a small fraction

Doc911 · 04-03-2005, 12:11 AM

those were the days.

no one here remembers that line.
