[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 322251, member: 7185"] CONGRATS! You made bail!!! Trust me....you will be happy that you left. The first time I left UPS, I literally couldn't stop moving. The first two weeks were like a vacation, then I became restless and couldn't stop moving. It took awhile to settle down. You'll get used to it. Try redirecting that energy into something else. You might be surprised what that energy can do. For me, it was a brutal pace to finish my degree before my parental support ran out. My college degree posted four years to the day after my high school diploma. Yeah, it'll just take a little while. And once you have settled down, whatever you do--no matter how physical or mentally challenging it is--will feel like you've got your feet up reading the sports page all day. I finally reconciled with that part of my own personality just recently. You'll be fine. LOL....you're not the only one to have that fear. The first time I quit, I told my folks that if UPS called looking for me to get the name and phone number of the person that called and I'd take care of it. The week after I quit, I took a nap and got up at the same time I would have if going into UPS. For me, getting out of the 'work schedule' took about two weeks but the 'Type A personality' took substantially longer. Three months after I left UPS, a female classmate told me, "You need to smile more. Above all, you need to RELAX." That was a tall order. I'm still working on it.....three years later. A few months ago, my academic adviser told me, "You've come a long way, X. The people at the State of Colorado commented on how much calmer you were at this last interview compared to a year ago." Take it one day at a time, Penguin. -Rocky [/QUOTE]
