Audacity. Some people have an abundance

I do wonder sometimes if I'm the only one that loathes compliments from their boss. Lady, I already know that I'm extremely knowledgeable about my job and all kinds of related things. Yeah, yeah, I'm fucking brilliant and shit. Too damned bad that this never translates into a higher title or pay. Nope, this patronizing bullshit feebly disguised as high praise only ever translates into being given extra projects that are supposed to be things that YOU get paid the obnoxious amount of money to do but never seem to have the time to do. Whatever.

Put in an application to something potentially viable and reached out to someone I know from the place - it's the place I worked when I first came to Rutgers but not for the guy that I used to work for (thank goodness). It would monetarily a lateral move but if I get an interview and it sounds worthwhile, I'll blow this popsicle stand.
