Well, after a bit of discussing things with my manager, I have an arrangement made to reduce my hours so I can pursue better work elsewhere (at least down to 2 days a week) while still making a stable income of sorts. Once I have things setup, I'll break it off and finalize the quit. Fortunately, I have their support. At least they understand as well as I do that I'm not fit for service industries; or at least those that require tons of social contact. Plus, my hourly reduction ought to help the new blood that's coming in at least for the summer.
At least my sacrifice won't be in vain, and I have 3 potential landscaping clients I can call between to find some work in case one fails (all thanks to my sisters having worked for them before, I should have better odds.), and an online freelancing account for my graphic design which is my primary focus. Hopefully the site's rules and the client's demands won't get in the way too much; fortunately, I lack a webcam so they can't watch me work; unfortunately, some clients demand webcam, or no work. More to serve as proof you're not whacking off during your hours. If I can get a good management ring going for myself, I should be able to run independently and hopefully improve my graphic design rep enough that I can work on that alone (freelancing still, of course). I'm not much for the career business. Hell, working in the service industry a few different jobs didn't make me anymore pleasant, but freelancing feels rather second nature to me. I have a feeling I would make a decent negotiator on things I know how to do.
And going on a different tangent, Caddyshack is on. Well, ended.
As annoying yard work is, it'll be nice to get some actual physical labor again. I definitely need the exercise especially after that cold spell Wintery Spring. Hopefully, I should get a system down by the end of the week that'll be consistent. I guess it wouldn't hurt to have some fixed work days so I can set it and forget it. Nothing like a predictable schedule to align with. Once those 'training wheels' come off, I should have things in circulation by then. And I noticed the kitty stopped meowing.
