Alternative Work
Sometimes I think it’s better for me to just quit my job and forget about the financial pressures that will inevitably follow. Maybe I can just sell everything I have, move to some small town and live a hermit like existence.
Such is the state of my mind nowadays. Everyday at work (including weekends) is just a stomach churning, morale sucking experience. I used to joke I’m a corporate whore. Now I really feel like one.
Maybe I should become one in real life. A rent boy? I’m too old for that. Maybe I can do erotic blogging. You hire me, I’ll come to your place, you can watch me blog and hopefully you’ll get turned on by that. I suspect my market will be very limited (close to zero). But I’m sure there are some really rich, kinky people that will hire me.
I can only dream. I better get to work in my real life. But please spread the word for me.

Will you at least write dirty?
I wanna quit and move to a different place too
I relate to the first two paragraphs. Not sure about the erotic blogging career though. LOL
LOL Crazy how your mind works. You should look for another job. It seems like your current one is getting very toxic. Not good.
I find that I want to run from something but I know that running to something is best. Maybe you do need sometime away. I find going to a monastery for a time even a weekend can give me a new perspective on things.
Will your erotic-blogging involve blogging erotic stories?! I’m not rich, but I’m kinky.
Oh, but I could probably feed you and give you a place to live. 
You are funny! 
I understand your feelings about your work. I’ve felt like that. It’s my sincere hope for you that things will change for the better.
In the meantime, dreaming is good!
HUGS!!!
We should join forces!!! lol
Matt, don’t give up on your dream!
There is a market for everything. You can be a rent boy!
you’re funny! =)
@XtremePsionic - I can write dirty but no one reads them.
@beowulf222 - if I rake in big bucks, maybe you can do the number crunching for me.
@oxyGENE_08 - I’m trying to figure out how to get out. It’s driving me crazy.
@Fatcat723 - a retreat? Hmm… that’s interesting, I’ve never thought of that.
@adamswomanback - thank you for the good wishes.
@Kliente2 - hahaha…. that might work!
@Wangium - I appreciate the encouragement Jason – lol.
@jace1982 - I have to make myself laugh. I mean, if I can’t laugh at my own situation, I’ll drown in my own tears of sorrow.
If you are serious about moving, come here, please come here. Not for your porn writing or whatever it is that you talked about above, but just because I would love for you to come here and be near me.
Okay, I am selfish. I can have you near me so that when my computer starts acting up, then I can holler, ‘ oh Mattieeee!”
Just how does one become a rent boy anyway?
Erotic blogging! Haha! What a new concept. I do think there would be some people to pay for that. There are so many “interesting” fetishes out there.
Sorry to hear that work is long and stressful. Work has gotten to that point for me but I’m like you, I would worry like crazy about the financial pressures. Sigh, I wish I could just revert to being a baby…
Hey Matt, why don’t you walk the walk and start up an erotic writing blog: ElusiveGaySexStories.
I’ve seriously considered the rent boy thing… but I am also too old now, lol.
There is a market for every taste and with the Internet, it should be easier than ever to find it. Now, what does J think about this career transition plan?
i know the feeling matt. luckily, i’m now a kept boy with my gf
haha!
you can come over and blog, no pay though! :D
@ZSA_MD - I’m actually a klutz with computers even though I work in the computer industry. I know it really sounds odd…
@n_e_i_l - I don’t really know…. I guess I’ll hang a sign around my neck?
@brooklyn2028 - well, I don’t want to be a baby … although I guess it means I can eat, sleep at all times of the day and night. I didn’t realize work is that stressful now for you. I hope it’ll get better for you.
@stepaside_loser - it’s really hard writing erotic stories because I tend to write from personal experience. So you folks will find out all my uhm… fetishes.
@Xx_DeUce_xX - lol…. it’s probably a short career, maybe lucrative but risky.
@christao408 - he thinks I should at least get in shape first.
@l0311879l - hahaha – I can’t imagine you as a kept boy. I just remembered a story my cousin told me. His eyes always “wandered” when he would go clubbing with his gf. His gf got tired of that and decided that they would only go to gay clubs. There was a lot less distractions.
@yang1815 - no pay? What? How will I survive?
@ElusiveWords – instant ramen?
