So, I found this article<\/a> on CNN.com. I surf there once or twice or a dozen times during the day to fight the feeling that maybe running screaming into the street might be a little better than living through another ten seconds of actual work.<\/p>\n

The article is about 10 signs it is time to quit your job. While I feel that perhaps the article advocates quitting for less than four star reasons, I added them up Friday and came up with 6 that describe my mindset perfectly. If I had longer to go before I plan (Plan B, that is) to cut back hours, I might work harder about getting the hell out of there a little quicker. I love my job, I just don’t love my employer.<\/p>\n

It just occurred to me that perhaps New-, Old-, Big- or Big-Big Boss is the one who Googled my first name, my husband’s first name, our last name and the state we live in. If so,<\/p>\n

1) Fuck you.<\/p>\n

2) Give me a decent raise<\/p>\n

3) And my 401k match<\/p>\n

4) And fire my boss. Unless you are my boss, in which case, quit.<\/p>\n

5) And give me a printer that actually will permit me to cut all the checks at the same time. This 200 checks at a go stuff sucks. Not giving me the necessary tools to do my job is just unconscionable.<\/p>\n

6) And I was kidding about the # of times I go to CNN.com. If you add up the # of times I go to CNN with the # of times I go to the website for the Cheesecake City Daily News, then maybe we’re around a dozen.<\/p>\n

7) If by “around” you mean about eleventy billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
