Just to update everyone here, due to medical reasons from severe stress I had a doctors note and am receiving some unemployment Income for 6 months from the state. I am looking for jobs but I am over qualified for all of them, I plan on changing industries and going into civil service. I'll be 40 in December however I have enjoyed my 2 month break so far, I am slowly healing from the corporate America bullshit.

"Wait till you see the collection of Parasites working Civil Service."
All ya gotta do is go to the Post Office, stand in line for 5 or 10 minutes, and observe the employees, then go to Fedex and do the same. Or (and this is much harder for the average person to do), hang around at some government office regularly. I worked on a lot of Fed projects for many years, in multiple facilities, and you would not believe the slackin' time that goes on. Yet, the rest of us pay their retirement pension and life-long health insurance.
I'm way ahead of President Trump on this point: He said we could cut the Federal workforce by ten percent, and it would still function just fine. Heck, I said that 30 years ago!
And, it's not limited to the Federal Govt., either. Local, county and state is just as bad. A lot of these people are just putting in their time, waiting for that 25 years of "service" to kick in so they can keep getting that paycheck and health insurance while they go on vacations for the rest of their life!
Anyway, BulletHead, whatever you do, don't go work for UPS or Fedex - talk about bustin' your butt! And, don't go work for a "huge industry" computer job, like banking, airlines, stock brokerage, etc. You could not pay me enough to work on those computer systems - I need to sleep, too!

If you are a REAL Work-A-Holic, I'd recommend going into business for yourself. Work next 10 years on something killer than sell whole thing for 500 million or whatever than retire somewhere under an assumed name.
NOBODY gets rich working for someone else.
I had an idea at my company. I just went ahead and DID it in tune with the maintenance guy who knew how do do what I suggested. We saved a LOT of product which would have otherwise gotten scratched. In semiconductors, scratches are a 'killer defect'.
AFter getting grilled for a while, (edge of hostile) I was FINALLY given a 50$ (FIFTY DOLLAR) gift Certificate to a local mall. Process changes are always approached gingerly, but I didn't consider what I did a process change (it wasn't) but rather making a machine work properly.
Too much is never enough
Years ago, when my brother-in-law lost his job working in a paint store, I suggested he become a mail carrier. Perfect fit for him and a pension.
Today he works in a paint store in the Bronx, commuting from CT.
All these years later, I wish I'd become a mail carrier.
As they say, hindsight is 20-20.
I hope you find something that suits you, makes you happy and... man that pie looks good !

someone with your skills and experience when you are ready.Good luck. I made the switch from the private sector over a decade ago.

I've been saving this .gif for months, just waiting for your next pizza post.
Meanwhile, I hope your plan comes together, bullet. I wish you good luck.

oh man, just as I was about to go on a no carb diet :)
thanks, I had some pretty boring pizza for quite awhile. This one was photo worthy. Next time I get another good one which is also photo worthy I'll post it.
I hope you know that is not mozzarella cheese it is provolone.
I can tell by looking.
...my guess is its Cheddar.

I saw this morning a Pizza place on 2nd Ave at 22nd street where they make Pizzas on wood fire. I thought you would be interested. Did not try it. Must be good. Will note down the phone number.

Civil service is where it's at. Government is the only place where health care, holidays, benefits, and retirement pensions reign supreme for employees. Says something about government doesn't it. ;-)Hope you land that dream civil service job. My Mom and Dad did and they now have incredibly obscene pensions unmatched in the private sector.
There's truth to the saying that the beltway is out of touch with the rest of the nation.

Civil servants are people to and most make valuable contributions to our lives.
I'm just saying that Government jobs are where the benefits and pensions are, and far better than what is generally available in the private sector.
My Dad served in Korea and twice in Vietnam, then worked civil service. A double-dipper. My Mother also worked civil service. Good for them, they did well for themselves and can now afford their assisted living and health care.
In comparison, it's pretty scary out there for the average Joe in the private sector in terms of retirement.
The beltway takes care of the beltway?
Retirement under the current system looks a lot like the private sector. The post separation health plan is good.
What kind of work did you do? Was it IT?
After working for a company, I went out on my own, best work related decision I ever made. The stress was much less, similar work, much more job satisfaction. All that mattered was getting the job done.
I was in data visualization, so basically ripping data out of databases and making sense of them.
I'll figure it out, need a few more months of a break.
OK, similar work. I accept e-mails, if I can be of any help relating setting up S corp, finding projects etc., feel free to contact me. I did it for 27 years, much better experience than working for a single company.
Thanks for the offer, I still need some rest. Had symptoms to PTSD, and was on medication Ativan, the same thing Chris Cornell of Soundgarden fame was on when he hung himself.
some people call it nervous breakdown, some shell shock...
They've been trying to kill me but I'm still here.
It's an open offer, I'm not going anywhere.
For a lot of people exercise is good for stress. A gym doesn't hold any appeal. I do things I like to do, bike, swim...
I appreciate the warm regards.
For two months I've been in a dark apartment, no exercise except mowing the lawn.
I have to start walking more, start off slowly. I gained about 20 pounds in two months, just from sitting here in the dark. Thanks.
Hum, no exercise, alcohol and a very high fat and sodium diet and likely low blood levels of Vitamin D along with likely not enough potassium or magnesium. Maybe you should be a spokesperson for the drug company that produces the BP drug you take? Your new, low stress career. I think I'll buy their stock. Then I could be rich enough to buy a house in a place with drug addicts and losers of every sort, a place I hate so I could live happily ever after. Sound like a plan??

that would be anywhere in New York City. You'll need a couple of million to start with. Then piss the rest of it away on taxes as the toxic atmosphere slowly destroys you.
If California is getting to you, I would recommend the Carolinas. Either South or North Carolina. I'm considering it myself. I inquired about what they would think about Yankees, was told they would be tolerated.
Tolerated my ass!!! We do have very good pizza.

Sell the house before the crash. It's probably going to be Florida or stay here and go broke eventually. Since I want the ocean and no real winter I don't really see any advantage to the Carolinas for me. Moving anywhere down there will be a huge weird change. Politically opposite from me for the most part. Something has to give cause the housing situation here is untenable for much longer. The question is if I can tolerate them. I already know they won't tolerate me if I open my mouth. They just a love left wing atheist Jews in the Carolinas. What bathroom would I use?? The air quality in Florida is among, if not the best in the country. There are low crime areas. The coastal area where I live is stunning and the weather is very mild. Excellent air. Great jazz scene. Very hard to give up. T456

I agree there is a huge crash coming.
Florida sounds great then if you like the ocean. Consider becoming an ex-patriot and moving to South America as well. You can choose to renounce citizenship or keep it so they don't mess with you in terms of penalties.
Atheist Jew? Ok, that's the first I heard of that. Comon man I'm a damn 0.2% Mongolian and 98.8% European. Am I Chinese then? I tend to follow the works of Crowley "Do as thou Wilt". It is all astronomy in my mind. What planet did I come from? I have no idea all I know is I get abducted every night by aliens because they are interested in my progress.
I wish they were more interested in all of humanities progress. They sure could do more to help us out of this mess. I don't speak Spanish and most of S. America is in pretty bad shape. On paper Uruguay is the place to be. Safe, stable and improving so I have read. Kind of flat and boring from photos near the ocean. Very little English spoken there. I do agree that an escape route is not a bad idea. If I were wealthy it would be New Zealand. Big if. Things are getting real weird. Somethings gotta give soon. T456

keep your head up.
Here in Texas, there are two kinds of Yankees: Yankees and damn Yankees.Yankees are the ones that come down to visit and then go back home.
Damn Yankees are the ones that come down, and stay. I'm a damn Yankee.
You should consider the far north Dallas area. (Frisco, McKinney, The Colony, etc.) Growing like a weed. Lots of hot women, both single and married. ;) 'Course, the summers are hot, too.

You did not gain 20 2pounds because you quit work. You gained it because what you ate and drank putweighed what you shit, pissed and sweated. Ylou are boprn ike eight or ten pounds and EVERYTHING after that is what you ate, minus what you shitted, pissed or sweat out. There is no fucking logic on this planet that can even start to refute that. If you think so, you tell me where the weight came from. You got it from the air or some shit ? They are all on it about calories but that is a bunch of shit as well. But it does support their business. (notice that ?)
You are what you eat in fact you are what you ate since the day you were born. You did not go from eight pounds to 100 on air.
If your job was that active, cut down intake, especially carbs. Now I don't want to post my spaghetti sauce recipe. You might kill yourself on it.
yes, I was on Atkins diet for about a year and lost a serious amount of weight about a decade ago, then gained it all back. I'll take your advice about the carbs and start on a similar diet to the Atkins. It is always a pleasure talking with you.

Rumor has it you appeared this morning in a YouTube video posted to Critics forum (of all places), sitting in the smoldering heat of your NYC apartment showing off your jellyrolls and ranting on incoherently!
... just in case you're unaware ;)
I know, I was verbally assaulted by an inmate for gaining 20 pounds, and told I needed help.
From where?
Lol!
"I plan on changing industries and going into civil service."
I've worked both state and federal and those crews will teach you what real stress is. It's never the job, it's your coworkers that will drive you nuts and try to take the wheels off your wagon. Good luck on that.
I hear that, not sure what to do.
Corporate America nearly killed me, I'm still taking a break for a year.
I had a good 22 year run, as I stated later down this chain there's always the illegal drug game. Growing Coca plants and cannabis (while their still outlawed).
Big fan of a cheese burger pizza
Will
yes, this one was a special today from Papa Johns. The pickles really add a nice flavor note to the experience.
I question civil service producing less stress. I have been to the DMV.
bigshow
There's a federal job freeze. But all the city and state workers here in NY seem fat and happy.
I'm not sure what I'll do. Maybe still going to take the year off I planned.
I was destroyed and shellshocked from my corporate job. I feel like going back to mopping floors that's how bad it was.
I could always grow coca plants in my basement for income.
