Quitting my j*b

[SoNotFunny]

I currently work as a paralegal making $20 an hour. I absolutely despise my job since it is super stressful and I have to deal with retarded clients all the time knowing that there's some bartender out there with no education making $25/hr, not even including tips. After taxes, I basically bring home no more than 30k a year. Truly depressing, especially considering that I have a bachelors' in computer science from NYU.

I work from 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM and I look tired and drained all the time. Don't get me wrong, I would gladly give my soul away to wageslaving if I were getting paid at least $40/hr (average software engineer salary) or if I had the potential of collecting commissions or tips. But alas, I have a set salary of $20/hr and I know I could be using my time way more productively doing my own thing than working this shit job. I need a hair transplant and LL, and at this rate, it will take me years to get that done. I have 10k saved up, which is a joke for my big age (24). I need to put myself on fight or flight mode as this will force me to actually make money to survive.

I will quit my job next week and desperately find a better way to make money. I will treat it like my life depends on it (and it does; hair transplant and LL is no joke).
