I have had to get especially strict with my budgeting over the past few years.
I left a truly high income task for a position making 30% less because I was not able to handle the constant stress.
The director who I was reporting to all the time wasn’t a nice guy and we didn’t get along too well. He would criticize me over trivial details such as the way I held a pen in my hand to my choices for lunch regularly. Some people enjoy criticizing others, regardless of how they go about doing everything. My current director is substantially better, and he even hosts dinner parties at his dwelling on the weekends when enough people are available. My deadlines are way more sufficient and adjustable on top of that, which leads to less stress while in my shifts these days. The only true downside is having less money to spend whenever I manage to get paid. My budgets are drastically strict, otherwise I wouldn’t have enough cash left over to eat after all of the bills are paid. I enjoy using cannabis immensely, however it’s tough to justify the cost if you aren’t making more money than you need. One way I manage to afford cannabis is utilizing holiday sales on a regular basis. Often recreational cannabis oils for instance are up to 40% off on the 4/20 and 7/10 holidays. The word “oil” spelled upside down resembles the number 710, hence turning July 10th into a holiday for cannabis concentrates of all types. This year I really hope that I can get a sweet deal on wax and shatter which are just a couple of kinds of marijuana oil products.
