I got a raise today, I got a raise for adding a tiny bit of responsibility to a job that barely holds any. I'm not complaining, who doesn't like raises? I just find it fascinating. My job requires me to do very little and I don't mind that either. I keep my distance in an office that is constantly going out together and getting drunk and snorting cocaine (I just learned this today, it's a good piece of G). And I think it's awesome that I still get the rewards without having to snort cocaine with 20 year olds. I think that means I'm growing up.
I haven't been at a job long enough to get a raise in I can't recall how long. I have a friend, Charles, who insists he will never work for a corporation again because of all the bad nasty things Corporations do. But the corporations make it soooo easy to stay! Raises! Benefits! Cakes on birthdays! Does that make me less deep because I'd rather stay at my corporation and have cake? No, no it doesn't...it makes me an isolationist because I'd rather take care of my own stuff than worry about the worlds. hmmm...that sounds bad doesn't it?
