My job sucks!
Hi guys and girls!
After 4 rhye and cokes and double screwdriver I feel like whining a little about my f... job. Read at your own risk.
I have university degree in math for business and 3/4 done towards my accounting designation. I just happen to work in company where education, professionalism and innovation are not valued. What's valued is how well you can kiss bosses *** and what's your relationship to superiors.
So results are amazing-for year of hard work, unpaid overtime and some very important projects I am getting whopping $400 bonus(before taxes) That would really help to pay my $15000 student loan and $2000 a year accounting course fee. But that stupid @@@@ who has barely done her 12 th grade, who is 50 years old and learned word "accrual" from me, and who's work I've been constantly re-doing because of sloppiness and bad attitude, who is calling me for help if her PC freezes or her totals don't tie in cuz she has no idea about "ROUND" function is getting nice $2500. Why? She is being doing her **** job for 15 years and she is relative of vice president. Period.She can't be fired.
So what should I do:
1) Take the bonus and buy Christmas gifts for my friends
2) Throw it into my bosses face
3)Shoot myself
4)Put on black trenchcoat and massacre my coworkers
5)Pour myself another screwdriver and update my resume
Sorry for putting this thing out, but I have lots of friends who are really smart young professionals and who have to put up with sh.. like that for stupid reasons like"lack of experience". I think that recent grad salary should start at 100K year and then go DOWN, cuz with time people start caring less about their job and by the time they retire they don't give a flying rat's *** about it.
Why 100K? Because I need turbo kit for my Protege5, forged 17"rims, coil over suspension and should be able to entertain my supermodel-like girlfriend!
I need another screwdriver
Thanks for reading this

"life isn't fair"?!
oh please
i can relate to this guy. I too work for incompetent people that haven't upgraded their skills in eons, if they ever had skills to begin with. i'm not saying senority doesn't count for anything, but brainless twits with senority is just plain bullshit.
take my advice and get a new job, preferably with a company that compensates a fresh new idea and work ethic. save the trench coat idea for your going away present...
