What is WRONG with me?

Maybe nothing......BUT

I have a job with a paycheck that most people dream of. The paycheck, I mean. BUT......I HATE THIS JOB AND THIS INDUSTRY WITH EVERY CELL IN MY BEING. If I have to do fix the same shit in a different building and polish the same turd one more time I think I might loose my mind. So, I want to quit. But I can't because I feel like that's a spoiled and entitled reaction. And possibly a prideful or ego-based reaction and I don't want to make a stupid decision. I mean, it's not like I'm climbing into a sewer everyday for a living.

You see, I haven't bitched, moaned or complained for 26 years. So thanks for this blog coz I need it now! For 24 of those years I had my head down and worked my ever-loving, ever-believing ass off. After making 5 men very wealthy at the last Company I worked for, I realized I was waaaay burnt out. Health problems, the whole works. I quit - with no bird in the hand or anything in the bush. Don't get me wrong, I loved that Company and the work I did. And, I was well compensated (not quite as well as the fab 5, but I already knew that).
