Well, yesterday I quit The Office. It was tough, because I felt bad, but I'm really glad I did.
Last night as soon as I got in, everyone was rushing around like crazy, because the manager kept saying "You guys are gonna be really busy tonight", "It's gonna be packed tonight". I pulled her aside and told her that I just couldn't keep trying to work three jobs; I'd end up putting myself in the hospital. She said she understood. "I could be a bitch and tell you you can't go because we need you, which we do, but you've got to do what's best for you." She had no idea that I was working two other jobs, she just thought it was one. So she said "The least I ask is that you give us two weeks, so that we can find someone else", and I said "Of course", and then went back to work.

Later on that night, Matt, who had been filling in as manager for a few weeks, pulled me aside and said "So I hear you're leaving us?" And I explained to him that I was getting exhausted, and out of the three jobs, this was the one I was making the least at, so this is the one I had to give up. He told me "Well if you ever need a reference or anything, please let me know, I would be happy to give it to you. You're good people, and I want you to know that." He almost made me cry.

Oh yeah, and last night's "really busy" night, I had five tables and made $25. That's a busy night for them. Didn't make me regret quitting at all.
