I seem to have one now. Finally my hard work as paid off and I work hard talking to these angry people on the phone without turning into a bear.
Now I must get a keyboard and learn to play music and catch up.

I work for unemployment opening mail and then I must patiently talk to angry people who want their reimbursements in a polite way.

Try not to think of it as a permanent job. Try to think of it like it's a stepping stone in a positive direction. A place where you can start climbing. You may not ever reach the top, but at least you're on your way, and that's important.

True. I want to work, make money, pay rent and work on becoming an artist/musician/writer which is what I've dreamed about forever.

After years of stagnating in retail and customer service the very idea of doing any type of art for a living sounds fantastic and entirely improbable. How sweet it must be to make believe and still be called a productive adult. At this point I would be extremely grateful for a sit down office position.

Part of being a payed writer is accepting the fact that you spend a good amount of your time doing things that don't feel like work, and then justifying it in your writing. If you can do this better than others, you're a writer.
