Through no fault of my own I've lost my second job this year. Ok, so the first one was my fault because my boss asked me to do something I wasn't hired or qualified to do and I said no. I made it clear on my interview that I
didn't want to do this particular work and my boss said "This is your new job" and I said "Nope". Well, I guess I was qualified to do the work (I've done it for 15 years), but I spent years (YEARS!) going to school to learn something new. So now I'm supposed to go and do
what I don't want to do anymore? I don't think so.This last job was ok, but it was for a small company. I
was hired on with the expectation that the company would
grow faster than it did and my position would be in
demand. Well, you can guess the rest. Everyone was really cool and at the 12th hour my bosses boss was on
the phone to HR trying to find me a place. That felt
pretty good. But, the bottom line is there was no place
and I am among the unemployed - again.I started drinking again. Which I'm not too proud of. I
spouted off to Lisa Simpson about the power of the
BEAST and he's got me by the cajones. My SO says it's
because of the stress and my SO rarely drinks and is
so al-anon it's scary. Still it weighs heavy on my
frazzled mind.I'm still on 75mg/day of Effexor XR. I tried some of
the Ondonsetron(sp?) that AndrewB had success on. I
added 5mg of Depreny that I get from a place in the
U.K. as a memory and 'anti-brain fog' drug to see how
that works. And I'll see what happens.Anywho, that's my trip lately.
