Fired from my miserable job and i'm actually relieved?

I'm so relieved because I had no desire to go in and I had deep depression and extreme stress because of the people there.

I was fired for going in late more and more frequently but I had no desire to go in fact I was terrified of going in every day I had extreme anxiety every morning and every night when I got home so it's a relief. I should be embarrassed for being fired but I'm not. This means I can actually start my own business now or find a better job because I was probably never going to leave that job and be stuck there forever

Is it normal to feel relieved after being fired?

    It’s normal, but if you were that miserable why didn’t you look for another job? I had an old professor that used to say, “Move yourself before somebody moves you.”

    UPS is good. Believe it or not Aldi's and Waste Management pay really well also. North Dakota has oil rigs they fly you in for free and pay you really well
