Quitting smoking!

[Watcher74]

As some of you might know, I'm currently a homeless bum in Tx trying to find a job in the computer industry at the moment.

My family is with the inlaws in NY and all of our belongings are in storage in VA.

Most of my job hunting has focused around Austin and it has become almost fanatical about healthy lifestyles. I started coming across companies with a policy of not hiring anyone who uses tobacco.

I thought to myself, "Ok, enough is enough. If this is getting in the way of me providing for my family then it is gone."

I told myself that last thursday was the last day.

Physical cravings lasted about 2, maybe 3 days. Psychological cravings I'm still dealing with.

Day 6, smoke free.

And still no job.

Day 6, smoke free.

And still no job.

Good deal. As you no doubt already know, you're saving yourself $3-4.50 a DAY by not smoking. Which is a lot when you're unemployed.

GL on the job hunt. I feel your pain. If you're REALLY hurting, I know of a place in North Dallas/Carrollton that hires aquarium service techs with great regularity. Since you're a fish fan, you've already got a jump on the situation. The pay isn't great, but it's better than starving.
