Good luck, man! Life is too short to waste it doing something that doesn’t make you happy.
Definitely! Life's too short
Absolutely spot on
@@Josh-Kim Yep, I was one of the fortunate ones that knew from college what I wanted to do and did it. Fast forward I retired at 59 and living the good live in retirement. Good luck in finding your dream job....I found mine. Btw, what is reselling?
Good move my guy! Congrats and good luck where ever your next steps take you.
Now there’s time for a road trip to SC!
Thanks man! Appreciate the support you've shown since day 1 🙌
Lot of Josh / Hairy Tornado collab up next?! :)
Good Luck, Life is too short to be unhappy. You will find your way, I feel it in my soul.
One thing I always loved about you, you follow your gut! No wishy washy stuff with you! Always keep it real my brother!! Good luck on your new journey of reselling and hopefully finding the job that you really want! Always here for you brother! 🙏🏼🙌
Appreciate it Tim! Always appreciate you looking out 😄
I agree!
That same day is my day I'm going part time and it is Daltons 3rd birthday!! 👏congrats you'll figure it out!!
Thanks! And same to you as well. Excited for you!!
Too many people settle. Too many people choose a pay rate over happiness. Happiness isn't worth your time lost. Always follow your gut. I applaud you on your decision. Let's see what the future brings you!
Thanks! Excited for what the future has in store for me 😄
That Operations Managers job at Amazon is no joke.
Definitely not something I could see myself doing long-term 😅
At least you had a good experience with Amazon. I wasn't so lucky. Been here for 11 months and it's beating my mental health, Mortal Kombat style 😩😫💯
😮 can’t wait for more uploads, and good luck on what’s next!
Thanks Amber 😊
Trust me this is the best decision you could have ever made. I worked at Amazon and I was 4months in before I decided this is just not for me. My manger got rude with me for the last time. I walked right off that shift went to HR and said hi I would like to resign. Never looked back. Something about that over night shift and being disrespected by your manager. Good luck to you
Sorry to hear your manager talked to you like that 😕 Wishing you the best of luck as well!
Love these stories, what did you end up doing?
When I lost my job in the beginning of COVID I ended up finding a job at Amazon but I hear you man when it came to long term it wasn’t a great fit for me. Hope for the best for you and look forward to seeing what’s next!
Didn't know that! Amazon is definitely a stepping stone for most people. Hoping for the best for you as well!
Congrats! Josh I've here since there beginning and you address a go getter you will find a place that suits you! Never settle for less! May your journey be filled with love, hope and happiness💕💕Hope you and your wife enjoy the ride🤗🤗🤗
Thanks Julia! Really appreciate all the support you've shown over the years 😊
Damn idk why I was in my feelings watching this video, especially towards the end 🥺😭😭 I felt like I was the one leaving Amazon. Best of luck my brother hopefully you can remain friends with all those beautiful people you met along the way! ❤️
really means a lot! I really did meet so many good people along the way!
Congrats Josh! I quit my job at Amazon also a few months ago. I'm working part-time retail while I resell. I agree with you, not a long term employer. I hope you find a great job or maybe you can resell full time again! Glad to see you on CZcams again. Good luck!
Thank you Carol! Wishing you the best of luck with everything as well 😊
You got this! Happiness is key! You will find your way…..we all will find our way! I’m a true believer of reinventing yourself often ! 💃🏻💖💃🏻💖💃🏻
Thank you Donatella! Excited for what's ahead 😊
Incredible courage to make this move! You will crush whatever is put in front of you next.
Thanks for sharing your stories with us and it may inspire someone else to do the same.
So happy for you Josh! As always, can’t wait to see what the next part of your journey is! I wish you the best 🙏🏼
Thanks man!
Always exciting Josh! No matter what you do, I hope it brings more videos🙌
Thanks Meesha! Appreciate the constant support you've shown throughout the years 😊
Hey Josh, I pray you are able to work in what you feel your heart calling you to do…
You are so talented & have so much to offer. Here’s to your next season!! Great video btw & good photos. 😊❤️
Really means a lot. Thank you! 😊
Congrats dude! Let's try get together again to celebrate. I definitely could use the deliciousness of naengmyun to cool me down from these awful temps.
Naengmyun sounds awesome!
Congrats Josh! Life is too short not to try other paths. There are way too many other adventures out there waiting for you!
Thanks Rhonda! I'm excited for what the future has in store for me 😊
I’m sure your wife is happy she’ll have you back on her schedule!! Loved the house tour and the pictures of your former coworkers 💖💖 you got this Josh 🤗🤗
Thanks Esme 😊
Good luck wherever your path takes you. Find something you love and you'll never "work" another day in your life.
Thank you! And that's the dream 😄
Definitely the right decision if that’s what you’re gut is telling you excited to see what your next adventure is either way know you will crouch it
Thanks! Congrats to you as well! Excited for you 😄
You're going to do great Josh! Really looking forward to more content :)
Thanks Michael!
On to a better life and a continued journey through it. I never would have guessed that I would be following it, along with so many others, for all this time since first watching the selling bulk LEGOs video. That we are still here is because you have kept it honest and real. Sometimes hard to come by on these platforms. Doubtful many would show us their bathroom and shower because they thought others may be interested lol, and I’m sure there is. Keep being yourself and limit stress 👍😊
Really means a lot. Appreciate the support you've shown over the years! 😊
Good luck Josh! If you couldn't see a future there then there was no point in staying and I think you definitely made the right move. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Appreciate you swinging by and watching the vid 😊
Best of luck in the new journey. I wish i had the guts to make this move with my job right now.
Same here.
Thanks! Definitely scary and exciting at the same time!
Congratulations Josh. Always hard when you have to start something new. I've been at my job for 11 years and I don't see retirement here also but find it so hard to leave. Can't wait to see what life brings to you now. See you for the next one :).
Thank you Ed! I'm excited for what the future has in store for me 😊
Enjoy some good rest brother, you've earned it!
Appreciate it man!
Yayyyyy! Can’t wait to see more Lot Of Josh on CZcams! Congrats! Wishing you the best!
Thanks Jes! Means a lot 😊
When you know you know. It’s great you recognized it and moved with it instead of delaying the inevitable.
Thanks! I'm excited for what the future has in store 😊
Cool Josh, you will figure things out, best to be happy and enjoy life along the way 😃 👍🏻
Means a lot Dana! Appreciate all the support you've shown over the years 😊
Transitions can be a rollercoaster. With you in this and I hope it all gets settled soon. I appreciate you 💛
Thanks Emily. Means a lot. Happy to have met you. Appreciate all the support!
Best of luck Josh. You'll do well in whatever you choose to do.
means a lot. thank you!
Josh, I'm not sure if you remember me from school, but keep crushing it King.
Thanks Sungi! Definitely remember you 😊 Appreciate the comment man!
Hi Josh, I am happy you are moving on to bigger and better things for your future. I worked at Amazon for 5 years and quit because I couldn't see myself retiring there..I am working hard to become a Nurse and currently resell on poshmark and ebay as well...good luck with whatever decision you make, do what makes you happy!!😄💕
5 years is like 20 years in Amazon time! hahah. That's awesome that you're pursuing to become a Nurse. Happiness is definitely super important! 😊
@@Josh-Kim So true it was like I was there forever..yes my dream is to help people that need help and care. 🥰
Congratulations on your new life chapter, Josh! Your new place is beautiful and I'm looking forward to "tagging along" with your adventures. Maybe your subs would enjoy IRL style videos showing your processes, a-day-in-the-life-of, how-to's, and perhaps even your current and new hobbies... in addition to what-sold and hitting up your local resale sources. You're a kind and thoughtful guy and I'm sure any content you provide will be watch-worthy. I'm rooting for you!
Really means a lot. I appreciate the support you've always shown over the years. Thank you!!
Good for you Josh!! So many people stay where they are not happy. It takes a lot of courage to leave, especially when you don’t have anything concrete to go to. And what a gem of a wife you have for having your back!! Wish you all the best.
Thank you! I'm excited for what's in store 😄
Good luck with whatever your next move is. I look forward to watch what is next for you. Thanks for sharing Josh. 👍
Means a lot. Thank you!
Wow! Congratulations, Josh! You'll find your groove! Life has something amazing for you around the corner! ❤️
Means a lot. Thank you!
Wow. Congrats? Maybe? Best wishes? Happy Retirement? Lol jk. You are incredibly talented. You will crush it at something. Great market out there right now to find what you want.
Hahaha I'm just as confused as you are 😂 Thanks for the kind words. Means a lot Kevin!
Good luck ! wish you all the best in your next steps
may your next venture be a great one!
God bless
Means a lot. Thank you!
Wishing you all the best, Josh

I want to say Congratulations to you!!! I can't wait to run into you, you deserve whatever is to come continue to stay humble
Thanks Angel! Hope we run into each other at the thrift again 😊

Wow! What great video Josh❤ I was in your same position with making great money but just your gut is telling you its time to move on... I know the feeling.. I left Kaiser after 19 years! You will do just fine, you are so smart, loyal and great guy with a great personality. 😊 Can't wait to see what comes up for you. Wish you the bestest of luck!!! 👍❤🙏
You are too kind! Really appreciate the comment 😊 I'm excited for what the future has in store for me!
Happy for you Josh.
Just found your YT channel from others at Amazon.
Scott! Thank you
Congrats man! Looking forward to seeing more content! Love the tour of your place! Getting back to eBay! Let’s go!
Thanks! Excited to keep you all updated as things unfold 😊
Welcome back. It’s good seeing you. Joel
Means a lot. Thank you Joel!
Good luck in all your endeavors Josh!! Cant wait to watch your journey!!!
Means a lot. Thank you!!
I had a 1.5 hour commute one way for 9 months....that commute alone is enough to quit! You'll find the path you seek, this was a good transition time for you. Thanks for sharing the journey.
Wow. 1.5 hours is definitely a crazy commute!
Have you beat. Had a 1200 mile commute 3 times a month for 25 years.
Great to see you back!
Good to be back!
Congrats on not sticking around at a job that is not in line with your life plan. I’ve never regretted leaving jobs or relationships that were not a good fit. Cheers 🥂
Definitely! 🍻
It's super important to be happy where you are working. Hope everything works out how you want it to.
thank you! Hope you have been doing well too
Best of luck Josh! Life is too short to not be happy!
Definitely!
I thought it was crazy when you left lol. I’ve literally been subbed since a TERRIBLE lit video 😂. You had no idea how and where your lighting worked on your camera but I could tell you were a stand up guy and truly wanted to help people. Fast forward and you have 12k subs or whatever it was and a couple videos on how you were struggling came out then you had a job at amazon. It was a sad time because I was feeling the same way at the time. I hope you’ve learned from your first full time go and you’re switching up your methods and trying new things to make sure your schedule and method this time helps you stick with it. Good luck! We’ll be watching :).
Hahaha means a lot that you pushed through the growing pains 😂 Still learning every day! The 10 month break was much needed, and it feels good to be back 😊
Best wishes to you Josh! Hope to see more of you !
Thank you! Excited to see what lies ahead 😊
I was wondering why I wasn’t seeing a lotta josh....it turns out you were workin 3rd shift (ugh!) at Amazon. Looking forward to seeing more you tube vids! Good luck in finding the right fit for you! I hope you get rich reselling and posting videos!
Lots of weeks where life was Eat, Sleep, and Amazon 😅
You’re a very strong person. Congratulations 🍾🎊🎉🎈
thank you!
Good luck with your future endeavors whatever they may be. Wishing you the best of luck.
Thank you!
Congrats Josh! Love the pics at the end.
Thank you! Definitely met some awesome people 😊
Best wishes dude! You already got this. I just left my job too.
Thanks man! That’s huge for you too. Wishing you the best as well. You got this 💪
Good Luck Josh! Always loved your video's!
Means a lot. Thank you Karen!
Can’t wait to see what’s next for you Josh.
Appreciate it Brenda! Thanks for always showing support 😊
Ohhh my gosh! Lol good for you. Excited to hopefully see more videos from you!
definitely excited for what's ahead! 😊
After 3 months of being a Amazon Area Manager, I quit due to the long over night shift and the overall stress. Glad I'm not the only one. LGA9 man, no joke.
Good to see you back, if only for a minute :)
Means a lot. Thanks Debra!
I'm sure you'll crush it no matter what path you take. I thought you were a great eBayer and CZcamsr!!
Too kind! Appreciate it Cathy 😄
Same boat here. Haven't quit yet but cannot work at corporate America any more. My side hustle have been good. Transition in 2 years
Wishing you the best of luck!
They paying 6 figures and only been there 10 months that's not bad. As a senior level workers compensation adjuster took me three years and being one of the best licensed in my state to get to 75k and that job was quite the nightmare.
I agree JD....hard to walk away from $100K and not have another job in hand.
Best wishes, Josh. Life's way too short to spend years doing something you don't like, no matter how good the money.
Thank you! I'm looking forward to what's in store ahead 😊
Get your VA claim looked over again by someone. That Tax Free money is the best money
Sending You All The Best 👏🏼👏🏼🥳🥳 Cheers To New Beginnings 🎉🥂
Really appreciate it. Thank you! 😊
Congratulations 🎉 good luck and best wishes for more to come 💕👍
Thank you! Excited to upload more content in the near future 😊
Man I am in the saaaaaammmmeeeeee position bro, like RT as well man. Crazy and an L6!
Good to see you again brother… I totally get leaving Amazon. If the job doesn’t fit there is zero reason to stay.
good to be back!
God speed man, I Hope for the best.
Appreciate it!
Sounds like you made the right decision! Onwards and upwards!
Gotta keep pushing forward!
Good Luck Josh!!
Thank you!
Money isn’t everything. Good luck Josh. One day at a time.
Thank you! And you're right, just need to take it one day at a time 😄
What!!!!
yup!!!
Congrats Josh, I truly believe that you will be happier than doing something that you are not happy doing. When the Lord closes one door, He will open another. Just put your trust in the Lord, and you will not go wrong. Me and my family will be praying that the Lord will lead you to the correct door. Just by watching your videos, you can tell what an Awesome fellow that you are. Just think the world of you Josh. Am looking forward to seeing what comes your way. Be optimistic and go for it, you are Amazing.
Thanks a lot Jon! I'm excited for what's to come 😄
You’re wife’s office does look like a perfect place to film CZcams videos 😉. But happy wife is a happy life. Sometimes you have to make tough decisions but your mental and well being always comes first. I started watching you right after I found Lonnie and right before you left the military. Good luck to you Josh.
Hahah right? I might have to sneak into her office and film every once in a while 😂 Appreciate the support you've shown the past couple years!
Oh no you didn’t !!! Good for you! Please make me do it too! 😩 I aspire to your freedom.
Wishing for the best for you, whatever that may be!!
congrats Josh!!
Thanks!
