Just decided to quit my current job and take some rest. I am an accountant in an used car dealership, thinking about get a new job in an accounting firm and just trying to get involved into different industries as I am so tired of dealing with cars every single day. Current company management is a mess, I tried to solve it and it just didn't work as the owners just do whatever they want.

Just sharing my thought at 1 am in the morning, haha. Love you guys from Edmonton.

sigh* last week Saturday my s/o & I broke up after our 3 year relationship. & it really been affecting me negatively — not eating, autopilot mode, self isolation & diving deep into work.

Idk, maybe I’m just better off single after so many failed relationships/am I being dramatic? but anyone else has given up on love?
