Big deal. There's 180 school days a year, plus about 6-8 teacher's inservice days, plus games and dance work, so you work over 200 days a year. I do 182 days a year and make 3 times as much as you do.
Oil refinery, technically. My schedule is based on a rotating 28 day cycle, of which I work 7 days and 7 nights, or half of each cycle. I do work some overtime, but I have enough vacation and sick time to balance the overtime so that I work about half the days of the year.
Eh. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I <B>should</B> feel optimistic because I'm taking very well to the counseling and she would tell me if she wasn't interested anymore or if she was interested in someone else. But when you spend this much time apart, I think it's understandable that I'd also think of the possible negative ways this could turn out. I'm just sick of the constant roller coaster emotional ride I'm on. One second I'm 110% positive it's going to work out, the next, I'm 110% sure she won't want to get back together. It's very wearing. In the end, I'd be extremely surprised if she didn't want to at least see what progress I've made in dealing with my emotional problems.
Dude, broham, what is going on? Are you going to counseling alone at her request? Correct me if I'm wrong, did this all start after you argued with some cop about a jaywalking ticket and got arrested? I don't know, seeing a pysc can make you feel sh!tty about a lot of things that I don't think people should feel sh!tty about. Just make sure you are going through all of this for the right reasons.
Oh, I am. The jaywalking/disorderly conduct thing was just the last straw...I've needed to do this for a long time. Everything we've discussed and pinpointed about my emotions/attitude has been right on. My only regret is that I didn't do this sooner. This has made me such a better and calmer person (you'll notice you haven't seen me participate in any "controversial" threads lately). My only hope is that I get to share with her the successes.
Well, I don't really know you. In here though, it always seemed to me that you were a calm dude. I guess I should have seen all the stuff you did here back in the day. Well good luck with that and I hope things work out with your lady.
Well, I've had my bad moments here, but I'd like to think I've become calmer as time's gone by. I'd say that I'm that way in life, and the problems in my attitude isn't all anger. It includes poutiness, sadness, etc. The sources of which make total sense to me. Thanks for the kind words, I hope it works out too.
