    If it was a "job" don't despair there are plenty of "jobs". If is was a career, you have yourself a good stiff drink and say some prayers. A good rule to follow: never quite your job until you've gotten another job, no matter how much they're ****ing you off.

    Collecting sucks with no money to spend!!! I know, I've lived this senerio.

    Good Luck and Think Possitive.

    Well, depending on where you are located, you can either shovel snow or mow grass for spending money until something else comes along. Its difficult to give advice when we dont know the magnitude of the job/career loss. Did you work at McDonalds or were you part of the executive staff at Microsoft.

    I hope you find a new job! As a young sophomore, I am starting to look into a job, because I will need a little money with the school I want to go to (Middlebury College, Vermont). Hopefully my 4.0+ will help me get there!

    Don't sweat it too bad. It's definitely a mistake just to walk out on a job. I know because I've done it before too. No shame in making mistakes- just learn from it and move on. You never know- you might just find a better job.

    I agree with Andy and I've done it a few times myself in the past.
    Look at it this way too Stainless - you're young dude. You will work for the rest of your life.

    I started working when I was 14 "because I needed money". My dad said "you'll work the rest of your life". Wish I had listened to the old man as I've been at it for the 31 years since then and am a long way from retiring.

    Don't sweat the little things, when having your job means a little spending money, thats one thing. When having your job means eating or not, thats another.

    stainless..it will be ok. i did the same thing to long john sikver's 24 yrs ago. i got hired by pizza hut w/in a month. you can continue w/ fast food service due to your experience. high turnover is common at these places. you can also apply skills learned there to another area (grocery stores, ect.). you are young, things will be fine for you. keep studying, set goals, and start your job hunt. hang in there dude, it will work out fine. hey, some pizza delivery guys make good money! best wishes...steve

    Just curious, ever find anything in the change drawer at BK worth keeping? If I could afford the pay cut, I'd go work at a bank tomorrow and take my pick of all the good stuff being dropped off!

    hope you get another job soon. it really does suck not having much or no money to spend on collecting. i just lost my job a few weeks ago, its going to suck the next time i want to buy a coin and don't have the money. :desk:
