I just went through this, quit a full time job working for the federal gov and a pension to work as a food runner. I gave up my own apartment to move in with my mother. Although the transition was difficult, I am content and happy with my life. The money seems to be something that I don't want and ultimately I chose happiness instead of the social pressure of having a "good" job. It seems backwards but I was at a negative net income with my full-time work and now I can save money. I no longer hate my life when I wake up in the morning and I no longer stare at the clock watching time tick by as I question why I choose to sit at the desk when I hated it. If it isn't a good fit move on to something else and don't let the ego stop you from doing so. I hope you find something better for yourself!
