    after being a little excited about the possibility of being unemployed and spending the summer at the beach and lounging I got the job offer I wanted today and start in a month after I finish my degree. It's for our rival company managing inclusion programs and licensed daycares for san diego and imperial counties and over seeing research and progress of the kids attending...it's a bit uhm intimidating to say the least...and a longer commute, but a really good job and a 35 percent pay increase, better benefits and I get to travel again...so I should be happy and not daunted but I'm kinda overwhelmed and in self-doubt and wondering if I really am capable or even deserve a position like this at 24. Also, my friend went for the same job and never got a call back and she works for the company all ready so I am wonderig how to tell her, how to reseign from my current position just so much arghhhhhhh.

    that seems like my only choice...I just wasn't expecting to get it so it's a really big shock. I wanted it so bad that now that I have it i don't quite know what to do

    Do you have multiple personalities?

    It seems every other day you have some more drama and bullshit to post about.

    Ever heard of stelazine?


    Stelazine is used for the treatment of schizophrenia (severe disruptions in thought and perception). It is also prescribed for anxiety that does not respond to ordinary tranquilizers. [size=-2]

    yea it is okay if you find you don't like it. its just something you learn about yourself, either you'll like it or not. and if you don't, you can always do something else and focus more on your Masters :)

    muaaaaaah

    or uhm go to the beach lots and focus more on my tan d: I was really hoping it might work out where I didn't get the job and I can still get benefits through my mom until I'm 25 so I wouldn't have to worry about working until august and I could just chill for a few months but this will be better in the long run it's just realizing that I'll never have another summer doing nothing that sucks ):

    muaaaaaaaaaah

    For starters, you are a man. 'Muaaaaaaah', should not even be in your vocabulary. Also, congratulations on the new job. I do not like quitting jobs or starting new jobs, but I like money more than I dislike the first two. I'm sure you'll be fine. Especially after you see your paychecks.

    just look to the left...
    then the right...
    which ever trail, is without the trees in your way...

    that is the trail... the other is the woods.

    hater d:

    but is the stress really worth money? I mean I know it's a whole lot for working at a non-profit and I know that if I don't do well at this job that I would for sure not find one working at non-profits that paid as well until I have a masters so it just feels like soooooooooooo much pressure. This is one of the few times in my life I have feared failing. I'm usually way over confident. I'm going to try it and see how it goes. I have nothing to lose. My boss at my job now is a total idiot and I can't stand it so I need to go work for somone competent.
