Some bone broth and a couple pineapple Popsicles the last 24 hours.
I think I'm starting to feel better. Going to push it as long as I can tomorrow and then start with like yogurt.
Thinking I'm going to use this as a reset. Try to really get my gut biom working right. Been feeling like shit for a while and it's been driving me mad.
Thankfully the weather has been great the last couple days and I've been able to walk more.
Neighbors have chicken wire for fence and have a car seat leaning up against it. Last week his dog fell in between our fences on the opposite side of the fence and I had to go tell them. Didn’t do anything about it. Well yesterday one of their dogs jumped our fence off the car seat(which honestly I was waiting for it) while our dog was outside. Thank god they didn’t do anything to each other. So I go back over to our neighbors and this time I wasn’t as nice and told them how they got over the Fucking fence. Pointed out the car seat to the lady I was like this is how it happened. I go back out today after I saw the husband out on the deck yesterday. The Fucking car seat is still leaning up against his fucking chicken wire fuck off dude.
werent you working all kinds of crazy hours at your old job? Nothing beats first shift. Once your body gets used to it, its king.
As far as your job goes, is there potential to make any more money if you manage a certain size book or anything? any bonus opportunities?
My base is only like 38k per year, which makes my non commission checks like 1300 after taxes. Second check of the month has the commissions on it. The lowest i usually hit is 2k commission + base. but most months ill hit 60 items sold at 12% commission. That brings the commission anywhere from like 5-10k.
if i were you, i would do anything i could to get out of claims and into sales. If you can sell good, most of these agents will just leave you alone and let you do your thang. The last 2 years its hardly felt like ive had a boss lol
If you hustle and work hard from 9-5 ( with an hour lunch) you can make anywhere from 150k-200k in sales. That's probably not going to happen your first year unless you hit the honey pot at an office. But that year can be used to sharpen your skills.
I am not a salesman, and do not like it. There's opportunity for growth within the company, but its going to take me a couple years. My salary is $53k, paycheck is $1289 after they took out for taxes and insurance. My last job was paying $1378 per paycheck, but my salary was $46k. The tax math is retarded.
Either way, its less than I was expecting. And my new part time pay from my old job is less too. I dont have enough to pay my bills this month, need to pull from my savings... again
Im so sick of being poor and living paycheck to paycheck and not being able to save.
I wish I could provide for myself the life my parents were able to provide for me. I cant even consider having kids knowing full well I cant give them a good life. And that clock is ticking. Im 31. My girlfriend turns 30 this year. We only have a couple more years where we can safely have kids, and I dont think its possible with where we are financially.
techinally you aren't living paycheck to paycheck. people who do that dont have a savings to pull from.
But yeah, its hard to make it on one income these days.
You should seriously get out of claims though. People who do that are absolutely dead inside and most of them have zero personality. The only way you are going to be happy is with sales. 53k or even 60-70k is not going to cut it for what you do.

I was single for a long time and it was hilarious. I also take a joke pretty well which makes talking shit fun.
A big part of why that group of friends bonded so well was because we would endlessly talk shit to each other.
I'll always look back on that time of my life fondly.
We did taco night so I tried part of a burrito and man it just made me feel like shit.
Going to go for a 48 hour fast.
Inshallah
Probably fucked long term. It's what caused all my dad's issues, but he also was an alcoholholic and waited way to long to go to the hospital.

I told my pharmacist I cant afford it. Basically nothing can be done.
Guess I'm going back to shitting myself every day.
