    I Quit My Daytime Job Of 18 Years

    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

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

                          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.

                                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.

                                  I think it is self explanatory.

                                          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

                                                perhaps he used his ALT + 0160 skills to create blank spaces

                                                I'll test it upon next post.

                                                  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!

                                                          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..

                                                                                no fucking bosses yelling at you and no being late for work

                                                                                the webmaster life is stressfull but nice at the same time

                                                                                Often times I wonder why
                                                                                There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                                                                                When sickness comes I must decide:
                                                                                When feelings go, theres suicide.
