Starting from the 16th of February 2026 I will be required to start applying for jobs again if I want to continue receiving the small allowance my previous employer is currently paying me.
I could naturally refuse, but frankly I am feeling well enough to start thinking about going back to work again.
Don't get me wrong, there is no way in hell I'm going back to teaching, but I do feel like I'm ready for another job.
It does suck that most of the jobs I'm able to apply for are paying a lot less then my teaching job, but hey, you can't win 'em all!
My mother is advising me to go back to studying so I'm able to get a decent job with decent pay. Now to be fair that is good advice, but I don't think I have it in me to go through that again.
I think I'm just going to settle for an easy, low-paying job right now and maybe in the future I'll pick studying back up.
I do appreciate her concern though. Money is important, but so is peace.
