Well I just wanted to thank everyone for their advice on the whole job situation. I just called my boss and left a message in which I gave my resignation. After hitting my head last week I have become more and more concerned for my safety at that company. I knew that the boss was coming back from a convention and that I would have to put a bunch of convention materials back in the attic today. I usually enjoy attics and the like but I was scared of this one (especially when carrying large bulky objects). One thing I left out in relation to the attic stairs is that you cannot actually climb to the top of the stairs. A hot water pipe blocks the actual top of the stairs so you kind of have to climb up on to the side instead of taking the stairs to the top. Bascially if you are having a hard time imagining this, you climb about 8 of 12 steps and then in order to not hit the pipe and burn yourself you have to hoist yourself from step 8 into the attic. I woke up this morning and realized that I was scared that today I would end up breaking my back falling down from the attic.
I have a college education and enough office skills that I should be able to get a temp job of some kind relatively soon (plus I still have a bunch of cash saved). The money was good at "Da Train" but not worth getting fucked up for life. One of my greatest fears is paralysis and a fall from an attic seemed like a easy way for that to happen. I know that I have a bad stomach but in all honesty I have gotten sick every morning for about a half an hour straight since I started that job. All new jobs make me nervous and I usually get sick for the first couple of days but I have never worked a job that made me sick like this. Most of my friends know that I believe in intuition etc... and I can't help but think that something within me kept trying to tell me to quit that job. I mean I was really scared that something was about to happen. Every day I kept wondering what outlandish task they were going to ask me to perform that was going to end with me being seriously hurt. I genuinely wanted to stick the job out until I found another position but when your safety is at stake you have to think about that first and foremost. A word to the wise, when in Richmond don't work for "Da Train".
Thanks agin to everyone who has supported me and offered their advice---Thomas, Corey, Lex, Stephen, and Robert.
The biggest thank you (of course) goes out to Kim.
