If you have a problem with that, it’s a ‘you problem’, I have a life outside of this place.” I was able to quit when one of my auditions landed, never looked back. He actually had the nerve to ask me for tickets to my performance, but I blocked his email and number after that.

My first job, there was a reporting process that took about 1 week per month, compiling various data and creating reports etc. I took this process and automated it (mostly because I hated doing it). So now instead of it taking 5 days a month, it was literally a case of pressing a button. I never told my employer because I knew if I did, I would just be given something else to do, so I just spent that week teaching myself new skills and reading stuff on the internet :) If they had employed me to automate the process, that would be different, but they didn't, they employed me to do the process and the process was being done, also since now it was automated, there was much less margin for human error, so the reports were more accurate.

The only job I've ever been fired from was a restaurant job that paid me a whopping 7.25$ an hour. I was fired because the owner found out that I was working a second job at a fast food place down the road working 10pm to 6am while this restaurant opened at 9am and closed at 9pm every day so my schedules never had a chance of overlapping but he thought working two jobs would make me less dependable. I think the cherry on top was that he tried to make it seem like working for minimum wage AND tips should have given me enough money to live off of. He got arrested later on, the restaurant shut down, and i got a job making more than both those jobs combined a few months later so happy ending at least.

Not to be team "at the office", but a lot of people get most of their daily social interactions done while at work. Eventually it can become that way between other employees at least (hanging out on the weekends, inside jokes, etc.). Granted, you obviously can't be everybody's friend because at least a few of them really don't care, and may actively even try to professionally screw you over to get a leg up, but that social element is something you'll never escape if we're working 10 to 16 hours a day not including travel time. I barely have time to meet other people outside of work in my current area besides specific meetup groups on days I happen to have off. They're not family by any means, but a lot of these guys have met each other's parents and whatnot.
