Back To the Drawing Board

Yours truly has lost yet another job and so the unemployment cycle continues - just after I recently broke my record for time in a job, as well - oh dear!

Eyes On Fire
For months now, I've been troubled by a pain in and around my eyes. I've always had it to some extent, including when I was at university, and basically just got used to it, but it only started to get really bad during the quality time I spent working in a call centre doing 12 hr shifts. I think it was partly triggered by tiredness on a couple of occasions, but the main cause was probably staring at the computer screen for hours on end. Gradually my eyes became quite sore, until eventually I was regularly experiencing a burning pain in the tissue around my eye sockets. I put up with it for ages, sort of expecting it to gradually go away, but I think I was just doing myself more damage. Eventually I left the job as I couldn't take the pain any more. I should've got it checked out but assumed at this point it would go away. No such luck. The problem persisted throughout the time I was unemployed, which made it that much harder to find another job. At this stage I thought the problem was still bad due to irregular sleeping patterns.
Anyway, to cut a long story short, I got the job at Mosaic, and although the eye problem was not always too bad, it was generally troubling me, and recently got to the point where it was unbearable and after I'd taken one too many days off sick (for other reasons too, such as the flu), I was sacked.
In conclusion, it sucks.

Regrets?
I've had a few - but then again, too few to mention. In this case, though, I'm more relieved than regretful. Mainly, I think, because I'm away from intensive computer work and will no longer have to endure that awful discomort I was going through on a daily basis. I don't think I'll miss the company, but I did make a couple of friends there (you know who you are). Overall it's a big disappointment that a health issue such as this has prevented me from performing to my potential in what was an alright job with ok prospects.

What Now?
Bring on the unemployment! I should probably find another job ASAP, and need to start soon before the rot sets in and I end up with reverse sleep patterns, anxiety and depression and descend into the dark world of self-pity (i.e. typical symptoms of unemployment). I should probably sign on.
