    My new boss just extended my probationary period!

    INTRO 
    Hey @Vigilante, I agree with all you said above. The frustrating thing is, I understood this a long time ago but was unable to get any passive/extra income streams set up while I was employed. Thanks. I really, really hope so too. Now I have some free time on my hands, let me know if I can...

    Very valid point. It's a good perspective. I'm very confused about what or where I need to go so I was hoping that by hanging out with the 'right' people I'd figure it out faster. This is awesome. Good on you for approaching him. How did your visit go? Thanks for the advice. I do enjoy reading...

    Thank you for writing such a detailed post, and for spending the time inserting all the links. I will work my way through them, in the coming days and weeks. I've already ordered the book you mentioned to learn more about ADHD. I appreciate the support and the positive words....

    It already does. I know what I should choose, but I seem to lack the willpower. Not quite. I failed to mention the prerequisite for these things was financial freedom.... I wan't financial freedom. Other than that, I'm unsure.... Something I need to work on...

    This sounds all to familiar. All too often there doesn't seem to be a logical reason. I'm the same with the tea and coffee, though it's become as much a reason to avoid things as it is for the caffeine. Yeah, true... The weather is awful. Dark and wet, all the time. It really affects the...

    Ha, ironically, that's the exact role I just missed out on. I'm certain it would only have given me temporary relief though. Still wouldn't be free. Same here! Thanks for the solid advice. I'll keep this in mind...

    Thanks for the reply... Been trying to figure out the side business for many, many years to no avail. Unfortunately, this is the route I usually choose. Can't seem to snap out of it when it gets me. Thinking about it, I'm exhausted with the constant up and down cycle. Thanks for your links...

    It’s almost 3 months since I wrote this thread. Things have got worse. I will find out about my probation the last week before Christmas (nice timing). Since I just got a ‘de-motivational talking to’ from the ‘big boss’ on Friday, I’m almost certain I will get fired. It’s pretty inevitable...

    @Fred Chevry welcome to the forum. Looks like you've caused quite a stir already :D I have a quick question for you if you don't mind. Do you have any advice on healthy snacking? I seem to be a bit of a ‘grazer’, needing something often between meals. I try to go with a banana or nuts...

    Very interesting to hear that by doing this your life turned around. Can you expand on what big changes you noticed (if you don't want to share, no worries)? Did you find it difficult letting go of your friendships, and were any of them 'lifelong' or 'childhood' friends? I think about this...

    So, a couple of months ago, for some reason I spontaneously felt like writing a poem - how random! It turns out I had A LOT to get off my chest about the rat race, and so it turned into more of a saga than a poem!! :wacky: I've chopped it up a bit, and ended up with 7-8 short poems that make...
