Antiwork

Quit my cushy corporate job today.

I’ve been working as a trainer and coach for a mortgage company since November of 2020. When rates were low, my job was great. Now that rates are picking back up and tons of people have been laid off, I was told that my job now requires me to make out bound sales calls 40 hours a week with no commission. If I don’t hit goal, I lose my job. Now I’m sure I could do the job but I have no intention of making that company extra money for no additional compensation. So I resigned. Today I got info for a coding boot camp I’m going to begin in July. Until then I’m going to Instacart, drive for Uber and maybe take an MMA fight (I was an active fighter for years, don’t worry) But I’m excited about the next stop on the journey.
