Does this sound trite?
[I’m coming back, I swear! Man, shit’s been kinda weird here lately. Jobby stuff aside (and that’s a *big aside* (although nowhere near as as big as japhroaig’s), I’ve basically reformulated my entire personal philosophy around recent @cowicide posts concerning NKS and computability of logically progressive states of entrained, composite objectivity. I really don’t want any holes in my philosophy, and there are many. That would be a dream, dude. But gonna need some beer money. Was thinking about getting back into theatre production. Backstage stuff. Used to be quite handy at the old set and lighting design but it’s been a while. Thinking of China or S.Korea for entry level film jobs, apparently they’re available for the right (white) person. Damn, I don’t want to sell myself on those terms but I’m feeling like a big change is in the wind. And why not make big changes when you’re in the mood? Basically at the point where I feel the same old same old can get to **F**]

I know a few people who work in the mental health side and they have my eternal gratitude and respect, but it’s not for me. I seem to remember you do something similar. Probably one of the reasons I hold you in such high respect.

I used to love building things but is a nearly-very serious injury for every year I worked with a lathe a good statistical measure of competence?

You may be mistaking me for someone else? Or (more likely) remembering my past work in that field and conflating it with my current issues, my volunteer stuff and my wife’s work?

Either way, it’s a Nietzschean suggestion, like, you know how things that don’t kill you are supposed to make you stronger? And how you never hear from the ones it does kill? :wink:

Would you prefer to live to work or work to live? More satisfaction or more fulfillment outside of the workplace? Can you go part-time to fund a less-financially rewarding path?

Why do I sound like I’m hectoring you about this? Aren’t questions the absolutely best format for nuanced discussion? :wink:

Y’know, doesn’t that sound refreshing and full of hope? Didja know I was a Theatre Arts major, and I’ve missed it my whole professional life, since TV ain’t the same?

Why not indeed? :thumbsup:

Did you know my wife started a painting class business, and four months in she broke even?

(There is a lot of hustle involved in creative pursuits, but you know that right?)

Honestly, ain’t this somehow the most nakedly supportive and frankly awesome thread this BBS has ever seen? Or is that just me?
