30 ‘Screw It, I’ll Deal With The Consequences Later’ Moments, As Shared By People Online

Quitting any job whenever I want regardless of having money or not I’ll figure it out, because you won’t have me feeling trapped and like you have control over my life been there done that

I knew my marriage wouldn’t last while I was walking down the aisle… but f**k it! I’ll deal with that s**t later!!!

Four years divorced. 0 out of 10. Was not worth it.

I hiked through 6 miles of public land early one morning doing some pre-season deer scouting for the upcoming deer season. Took several hours to complete and i was exhausted when i got to my truck. Only to see my best friend had texted me at some point asking if I want to join him on an over night camping trip. Said f**k it. Got home. Grabbed my camp pack. Met him at another spot on public land and we hiked another 4 miles in before setting up camp. That night and the next week, my legs felt as if they were ready to rip themselves off. Might not sound like a lot of miles but when 90% of it is off trail bush wacking. Climbing over logs and through thick brush. Its a good bit of work.

Found a new coffee shop in town which was so good I immediately went back for a second and a third large (so 6 shots in like 10 minutes). Regretted it both throughout the day and during the multiple toilet visits!

Edit: the cafe was called Gumption by Coffee Alchemy. So good!

I used to unload freight from delivery trucks for a living. Most the s**t was half haphazardly thrown in without regard to anything. It gets a bit frustrating. One time I had got to the back of the truck and there was one pallet left. The pallet itself was crushed with these concrete barriers that were stacked on it. They never should have loaded it that way and they knew it. It would be impossible to unload by hand, but I couldn't get the fork lift all the way under the crushed pallet.

I decided ultimately to just say f**k it. I leveled the forks at pallet level, backed up about 30 feet, and then rammed it full speed. The forks went clean through the pallet..... and the back of the truck. I got those concrete barriers off though.

I blew past a state trooper doin about 140 mph (225kmph) on an empty highway just because I was testing how fast the car could go.

I changed my secondary school choice last minute from a school 15 miles away to the one a 2 minute walk from my parents house.

I figured I would deal with the consequences.

Time came around to see if I was accepted into the school... I was accepted into the original one, 15 miles away.. Confused AF.

My mother grins and says she changed it back to the original one before sending it off.

I wasn't even mad, I regretted my decision about a week after I changed it. The original school was a much better school and I'm now still the only person in my family to do all of the education stuff.

I had a whole ordeal with my wife developing a neurological disorder and my chain of command allowed me to come off the ship a couple days to get her help at the hospital. There was a miscommunication where they made me come back on the ship sitting off the coast and left her behind. I got brought into a room with maybe 5 chiefs and my division officer to get absolutely railed. I went fully numb and responded to everything in the most nonchalant way and when they threatened to bring me all the way up the discipline pole, I asked them to “please do. I’d love the face time with the captain, maybe I could actually help my wife.” It went nowhere after that but after I went straight to my rack and setup my uniforms just in case. Later in that same ordeal my wife and I were involved in an email chain where my XO and chiefs basically lied about the situation and we sent a novel correcting every piece with a “just so we’re all on the same page.”

I had developed feelings for a coworker (small company, about 20 people), we kinda flirted at work and some people were starting to suspect something but we managed to keep it professional. One night we had a few drinks, could not decide to part ways, one thing led to another... the morning after when we woke up together, neither of us could muster the strength to go to work : she called in sick, and a few minutes later I sent an email to use a day off, as things were quite slow at work anyway. But we knew all too well that the both of us not showing up, with coworkers aware of our plans to get drinks together the night before, well, we weren't going to fool anyone. And the following weeks/months were pretty awkward indeed (we never made it official, for the time it lasted).

A friend ordered 2 pitchers of beer at a bar at like 11am (one for each of us).
