I've just come to the realization that I'm going to need a job to support a gaming habit. The trouble is I can't stand for very long. I was reading a list of jobs for people with mobility issues. One of the jobs was cashier. I just had to laugh. I need a job folding brochures or answering phones. I also need a mentor who will not mention answering phones and my accent under the same breath like the last one I had. The WP hippie is going to have a job. Let's see if it lasts for more than 4 years.

What relevance does having a job for 4 years have? Was that your previous record for holding a job?

I worked at the TD bank for three years and than the head auditor in Toronto decided that greeters were no longer needed at TD banks across Canada. The job I had before that doing garbage removal lasted 4 years because everybody was laid off after 4 years.

Wouldn't it be easier/healthier to get rid of the gaming habit?

It would be easier to get rid of the gaming habit. I deleted that Dice Dreams app today.

Get rid of the habit and keep my freedom.
