I had a dream that I believe answered my question about work catalyst. I like my job, mostly - it's a nice restaurant in a little tourist town here (which means tourist season is almost over...) They use a lot of organic foods, and very little meat (chicken and fish only) and have several vegan options, which is great since I get a shift meal. But the owners are... difficult... and I was lied to about the hours I'd get. It's never really been enough money, and to boot my commute is about half an hour. I've put up with it because ethically I support the business. But now I've been offered the opportunity to keep four shifts each week through the winter (I was told 5 when I started, and have hardly worked 5 shifts in any week I've been there), but the caveat is that they would fire another girl, who has a pretty bad attitude and has known that I threatened her job stability while I've been there and has treated me accordingly. I asked for guidance and my dream last night was thus....
I went into work, F (female owner) was there. I had an "escort" gig where I was going to make $500. I had (apparently) done gigs like this before, but this one she had explicitly said that us three girls who were doing it that night were available for sex. I was not okay with this. She was picking out outfits for us to wear and stuff. I finally told her I didn't want to do it, which she was sort of okay with. I knew she was keeping a chunk of whatever the "clients" were paying her herself, being the madame or whatever, and the whole thing just sickened me.
Eventually some lava came? and went up to my car. There was some minor paint damage/melting but everything else was okay. F was screaming saying that I had done it earlier that day and hadn't happened on their property. D (male owner) was screaming that because I had filled all my tires that day, it was proof that I was planning for my "final hoorah" (to scam them?). I told him that was ludicrous and I had to fill my tires every few days because I need new ones but can't afford them at the moment (true irl). I eventually left because we ended up being overstaffed for me to wait tables.
I think the gist was my dream telling me I'm not compatible with that place (Quit prostituting yourself, Jade!). Just gotta muster the gumption to look for a new gig.
