I am both scared and excited. I will, for the first time since childhood, no longer be a slave to my job.
In my current job I am a nanny, I don't exactly get a lunch break. Don't get me wrong there are times when I sit for a few hours, but the parents WFH and want me to talk with them during my breaks. I am also not really able to eat by myself. They want me to eat with them as a family, and it is awful. The drive to get here is a30 minutes in the morning, and an hour-long drive to get home.
I have zero time for myself, and I've been getting cranky lately. I realise it's because I've been chasing a paycheck versus living my life.
So I've taken a job at 30 hours a week. It pays high enough to barely pay my bills, but I'm excited for 6 hour work days. I get to enjoy my day, and spend time with myself, cats, my plants, etc. I know It's going to be a huge transition but I am excited.
Goodbye slaving my life away.
