I'm Back.

Thankfully Blogger is still a thing. I've spun up and destroyed so many VPS website hosts for personal use... I figure it'll be best to use this as an actual blog, and relegate my other resources to more... useful things.

So here I am, at the office at 3AM, finishing off the last bits of the previous day's work. There wasn't all that much to actually do; I just took my time with it and clocked out at a normal time. Being able to work off the clock at my own pace is great for the quality of work performed.

I've had a lot of quiet time lately, where I can think in peace. Supposedly introversion is something people avoid, vying instead for music or other noise to keep their thoughts drowned out. It's understandable. Sometimes thoughts can get... dangerous.

Lately my income has been a bit tight, with the limited hours I can spend clocked in due to the slow flow of work available. Supporting my parents on ~$9000/year isn't exactly feasible. If current filial obligation wasn't holding me down, my current income would be more than sufficient. Leaving isn't exactly something I can easily do, however. Not only because doing so would be selfish, but also because of promises I've made to not be that kind of person. Even if it were out of financial self-preservation, it would still be... not something I can do. I have no choice but to bleed out my time.

Taking on a second job seems to be the only recourse at the moment. My current job allows for flexible hours, with work that can be done at any hour of the day. I may take on a full-time position at Best Buy's Geek Squad, as it fits my aptitude for tech. There seem to be positions available at a local Wal-Mart Marketplace, but... eh. I don't want to surrender my time here to something I'm not fully engaged in.
