Have some major news

Ok everyone, time to gather around for Manga to rant. I haven’t been posting much lately because a lot has occurred and this week alone has been pretty rough on me in multiple ways.

First thing is that this week, my family and I had no choice but to put to sleep a cat I had ever since I was a kid. I knew this cat since we both were children and his passing was sudden, and is also hard on me since he’s been in my life for over 15 years. I have 3 other cats besides him, but it still feels like a major void had been opened in my house knowing he isn’t there.

Second, work has hit an all time low and I’ve literally had it. I had an entire week off and I decided to call yesterday to receive some pretty messed up news: I am not getting a single hour this month or for a while. I spoke with one of my managers over the phone and she told me something she didn’t tell me since I was hired: “I only hired you for Seasonal purposes.” She continued on explaining that this is the company’s worst month and that there is no money to earn. The gist of it, I’m still employed under them; but they have no hours to give me period.

How can anyone live like this? I have financial decisions I’m currently making in my life that are major and life long, so I can’t afford to have this! So, after these past few days, I came to a few major decisions:

  1. Since work is going to be a pile of crap to me, I decided I’m going to quit work as soon as possible. What my boss said to me was the tip of the iceberg with this place. I have been extremely unhappy there for the longest time and a lot of things they did and said were heavily unnecessary, inappropriate, or heavily unprofessional.
  2. I’ll be posting more online. Ever since I left Tumblr, I haven’t posted Gajevy smut once. I have a piece that is a WIP and I plan to post it to Deviantart and WordPress as soon as possible.
  3. I’m going to try again and sell my artwork. I have a meeting soon to help find work again but until then I want to try and make something for myself and hopefully get me to a way better financial position for my future.

All in all, this is what has been going on with me. I haven’t given up on myself and personally these past few weeks, my self confidence has been growing to where I don’t have much doubt anymore. This week had been rough, but I think it made me stronger as a person.
