Gratitude is hard for many.

My work partner has been a bone in my neck starting from when I fell sick. She said a lot of ridiculous things , she just couldn't stomach the fact that she has started making money from the skills I brought to the table and suddenly I'm out sick, not sure when I'd return, because of the uncertainty and panick, she said inhuman things.

I continued working in the first week when I fell sick, but I couldn't continue in the second and third week. Later she had to come to terms with it.

She is a very greedy and insatiable person, and she worships money like a god, unfortunately she her, she isn't as hardworking. In the first two month, I was grateful to have made $650 before I slumped into illness, and took care of some bills.

Recently I decided to get back to the job because why not? I needed the money, I made another 200$ on average, it went to food and medicine, and she gifted me another 100$ for one NFT she sold.

A few days ago, she didn't make enough money for something we put a lot of effort in, and she went all around blaming me for the poor financial returns. I told her I was going to quit, by December probably.

What I didn't tell her was that her behavior has been unbearable. Why not? Well I'm still in recovery mode, the job has been excruciating and painstakingly stressful, but I just had to return to it because of the money I need.

then I decided to take a 12 hours break, she panicked, and began to apologize. She said she has a divorce case and she needed money to take her ex husband to court.

I didn't say much because my mind was already made up, I already decided to leave the job by December, not because it's not good, but because the partner is an ungrateful person, compares herself to other people and cannot stop nagging about needing money.

Why December? Obviously the market should peak and alt season is inevitable by December. I've learned a lot in that job, and I hope the lady can learn to appreciate loyalty and hardwork when I leave. There aren't a lot of loyal people in the world.

She has promised me money and good life, asking me to quit whatever I was doing to dedicate more time, but I just knew I wasn't going to buy that bait.

Life is full of ingrates and people who do not show gratitude, they forget that anything can be easily taken from anyone. Is the job a very good one? Yes. Infact it's a dream job, but under such conditions with someone as impossible to please? I think I'll pass and hope to get better future opportunities, but now, I need to continue rehabilitation and my recovery process.
