Damn. I been meaning to check speeds here at work. We are getting 56K type of speeds atm. WTF.
Usually this is only a few hours or something once a week, but going on 2 full days in a row is a bit much.
I don't think we have one of those limited-throttling plans. At least I haven't heard of it. Been upping tons of videos to YT the past few months with minimal issue.
Hhmm...

What's your job? I remember you were looking for something a few months back.

Commission-based internship in a computer shop.

The pay is shit compared to what I was promised to be making with AS. But at worst, it is experience. I'll stick it out for a few months before I look for better.
Kind of comfortable with the position for the time being. I pretty much run shit most of the time. Then upload videos to YT when not busy fixing stuff.

So you're a computer tech? Fixing and trouble shooting retail computer problems? Like Geek squad kind of stuff but in-store?

I am not doing any research these days. I am feeling a bit anxious. Need some data to work on.

Mostly computer stuff. Phones. Video game stuff. Other assorted gadgets.
I'm supposed to be learning surveillance & LED sign shit, but since I'm most available, I just hold down the shop all the time while boss goes out doing those installs.
Was doing sales stuff, but I was getting terrible anxiety so had to get off that real quick.

W.O.W I'm quitting my current retail computer sales job due to having bad anxiety problems. 1 week left to go.

There are many days I feel pretty anxious. The main reason is with managing my finances, I need to make sure I don't increase my debt.

Yeah debt pressure is no fun. Hope things work out well. But it sounds like you'll be fine you're a smart guy and you are in a good position from what it sounds like. My issue are, well, more ingrained / entrenched. And I have a biological component to them too.
