It takes hard work to keep from working

September 12th, 2007 1:59 pm

For all the bitching and moaning I do about my job, they just kind of came through for me a little.

I was just informed I would receive a 5% annual pay increase (the most I’ve ever received, also the highest you can get here) as well as a $2100 bonus (also the most I’ve ever received).

I know that’s not a lot to some of you, and in some cases it really isn’t. But for me it’s a good day, especially because the pay increase puts me over a goal I had set for myself. I had wanted to make a certain amount of money by the end of the year, and now I’m over it.

I think upper management knows I am not happy and they’re trying to keep me from leaving. Because honestly if I was to left it would really hurt the department. I’ve come a long way in a short amount of time. I was also told they want to bring me in on some larger projects they’re working on.

I’m like, eff that, I don’t want to have to do more work. Lawlz.

Anyway, I want to thank Jesus Christ for making all of this possible. I also want to thank beer, because without beer I would have no reason to get up in the morning.

    If you was to left?

    Congrats!!! That’s something having them do that for you. I’m glad they not only picked up on your unhappiness but decided to try and do something about it.

    I LOL’d that you thanked beer right after Jesus Christ.
