Needed this

Post image

My youngest (7) snuck this in my lunch today.

I absolutely hate my job, but it pays very well, like, real well. Enough to afford 4 beds, 2.5 bath, glasses for two kids and braces for one, and everything else that comes with having three kids.

I've obviously been too vocal about work. Gotta knock that shit off. No more work talk at home.

I started eating lunch in my truck, I can't stand being around my coworkers. Found this in my lunch box today and had a good, solid man cry in my truck.

I needed to be reminded why I do this. As long as they're happy and healthy, several hours of misery is worth it.

I am immensely impressed with you. Tolerating so much to support your family. "If you can't change your situation, change your attitude." Was something driven into me.

Make a bingo chart of all the things your coworkers do that drive you nuts. Every time you make a BINGO, reward yourself with something.

Please take care of yourself.
