Next Steps

I’m thinking about my next steps in life because I can no longer stomach the thought of another shift as an unarmed security guard. I only have one good iron in the fire and that is with VGM and Uber. I’d get $23 an hour plus tips but we know tips are quite rare. I need to seriously work on some other options. I do like my boss quite a bit and I’ll honestly miss the guy if I end up leaving my security job. He’s been very fair to me.

I have work today, and to be honest, I am not looking forward to it at all. I am still a bit tired but I know I need the money so I’ll be there and on time. I am finding myself revisiting writing the book I had planned a bit ago. I used ChatGPT to help me organize my thoughts better and come up with an outline. I have a title in mind, The Beginner’s Home Lab Book: Learn Linux & BSD by Building Real Systems.

By my figuring, I can work on the book on the weekends. My plan, if all things go as I hope, will be to reduce my hours to 16 on the weekends and spend 2-3 days per week driving for VGM. That should end up helping me out a lot more.
