I got fired early this year. Today I'm living my dream life. Seriously! I am so grateful for being kicked into living, not just being! I'm building my KZbin channel, started earning money as a coach after 2 months, I set my own schedule, I am my own boss. Beats being a 9-5er in corporate every day! One door slammed so hard in my face it woke me up to the unlimited possibilities of our world! Getting fired can truly be an amazing thing if you let it! 😊

Wow, glad to read this, got fired today

Love ur comment “kicked into living”. I’ve been in a job I hate for 10 years. Extreme burnout. Just got fired after 3 months. I did it to myself. If u loathe what u do, ur gonna passively do things to remove ur self from that job

[@Acts-hw1zs]

this makes me happy, but sad also because we may never get to see people do extraordinary things they are capable of because they simply stopped chasing their dreams..

[@NephritduGrey]

+Bobbie Kom To be fair if one door closes another might open so we might still see people doing extraordinary stuff, just not what they initially thought it would be. Like sacrificing the career to be a parent or something.

Same here

[@donnelly5757]

I've had 11 jobs and one internship the past five years. I have been fired from six of them, abandoned one of them, and the rest I quit. I don't feel bad about being fired, abandoning or quitting these jobs because these jobs were destroying my mental health. I am sure I will get fired or quit my current job because it too is still making me underemployed and I am not utilizing any of the skills I have acquired in my degree or through online learning. The one glimmer I had was my internship this past summer. I got a gleaming letter of recommendation from my manager. The point is, my summer internship is as close as I have been to my dream job, a job in which I can finally say to myself "I feel worthy.". I hope that day will come soon.

[@Sunshine-iz1pf]

That was a self-centered employer. You made the right choice !! Look at you now !!

[@chak9360]

Not really "Sunshine", you only say that because you know how it turned out for him , what if your brother come knocking at your door right now and says he's quitting his job and leaving his wife and daughter to become an actor , would you say the same encouraging thing to him ?

[@exothermal.sprocket]

A self-centered employer wouldn't attempt to advocate for a man's well-being and his family. A self-centered employer would try with all their might and rig the working system to get a good man fired.

[@umpus]

Steve's a real success story. There's another 10,000 guys who quit their job for the same reason and probably had to go crawling back to boss man or end up on the street.

@@671brayan There's also people who see the realistic outcomes in everything. Opportunities like this come to people very rarely. People who are successful in their pursuit are even rarer. If his colleague hadn't walked in at that exact moment, he might be still selling insurance now. It's a mixture of incredible luck, tremendous risk-taking, and amazing talent.

Well regarding my sketchy job history: I just found out, that there is a woman, in my life, I call friend. And she opened my eyes because she said, "You are my plant!" I said, "how the hell am I her plant, when she's only 12 years older than me?" And its offensive to me, because I thought she was being friends with me, because we were a the same church. But the whole time, turns out she could be my relative, and I could be a spy. Now I have issue with that, because I pride myself on being integral. So I would never spy against any country. So one of the main reasons I registered with immigration was to prove I wasnt a spy, mole, or terrorist. These are legally defined words. But as you can see, during the hours of 8-5, I am talking alot on Steve's videos. They are for spies. So, the USA saw this in me. Even my beloved Egypt saw this in me. I couldnt believe it. So the pain I had all those years, about getting temp jobs, then getting replaced, or fired, was because I was a canvasser, or an opener. And I hate that. The embezeller or the "spie" was always doppled behind me. So I got fired on purpose. This is why I cant reopen my door in the USA.

he did - he was living out of his car for 3 years but he got there in the end. The thing about your dream job - it doesn't just turn up. You have to work hard and sacrifice a lot and back in the 70's and 80's it was far worse financially to chase your dreams than it is now. plus a lot less racism involved, too. Well, unless you want to be a cop and ya black.
