I was talking about how I left my corporate job back in September of 1999 and how cheerful I am for doing it. I was laboring as a mechanical engineer building medical component for a immense corporation and I was tired of laboring in such an environment. You had a keycard to get into the locked building with no windows and it bordered the feeling of a prison when I was inside. You couldn’t see out at all and when you finally left for the day it wasn’t daytime anymore. I’d get loft at 7pm to my air conditioned lonely loft and would crash next to my air conditioning unit from exhaustion after a long day in the office. I did that for seven years and finally told myself no more and left it behind me forever. The Heating, Ventilation, and A/C corp was paying me like $60K a year back then, which is pretty great money in this week’s world, but all of the heating and cooling system work in the world didn’t interest me anymore and I had to get out of it. That was almost 24 years ago and I am so cheerful I got out of it when I still could because a lot of my friends are still stuck in their office jobs. The only thing I liked was designing air duct for the immense commercial Heating, Ventilation, and A/C component that my great friend and I built, but most of the time I was in meetings or writing reports for the immense boss. My life is a lot odd now being a musician and a part time writer overseas, wow.
