I am in the SS. Stuck right along with you. You are captain, ABBA is first mate, and I am just one of the seaman.

Maybe you can get promoted when ABBA jumps ship.

I see that there is a job fair for pharm reps in my area on July 25. I am totally showing up. In a bikini.

Don't forget the 4 inch heels

I took over as Queen of the Stuck when Sebby retired as King. I think I hold the title for complaining most frequently and vehemently.

I am interested in pharmacuetical sales (maybe?). Does anyone know anything about this?

What is it that you don't like about practicing law?

If it's the soul-sucking phoniness, I rather doubt you'll escape it as a salesperson, of pharmaceuticals or otherwise.

Nope. And thanks for reminding me that I'm still here. Stuck.

Because I think yours is broken.

I realize you're joking. The on-going joke is getting annoying, because instead of the old "I'm rich, bitches" line of jokes, which sounded more like you were poking fun at yourself, now, to me,* it sounds like you turn every topic into a way to point out your wealth. And that is tiresome. Maybe not as tiresome as my constant bitching, but there you have it.

*Of course, things annoy me that don't annoy others and of course, these jokes may not come off that way to others. But I figure you would want to know that the jokes aren't having the affect you intend them to have (at least on one person).

In your dreams.

eta - I have documented proof and a trophy on my desk that proves no one, NO ONE, complains more frequently or vehemently than I. Ha.

I have no idea how often you complain about your job in real life ("IRL" for all you internet geeks out there). We are discussing complaining about the law firm gig here. On this board. And while Sebby invented it, he will even agree that I've been the bearer of the title ever since he got the fuck out.

Get in line.

Are you two actually fighting about who whines more about hating work? JFC.

I got a glowing review today, and most of the people I work with are great, and it's pretty much a 9-5 thing. But I make a lot less than many of the fancy lawyer people on here.

Well clearly if your life is all sunshine and flowers you have no business posting about it here.

(and today is my Friday, so bite me.)

Fuck off.
And ncs, I had no idea you wanted to be queen so badly. But I'm keeping the trophy.

Thank you. But fuck off, this is my Tuesday. Some people get to leave a 1:30 and smart people took today off. I am neither of those people.

Mine too! A half-day Friday. A happy happy half-day Friday.

My actual physical office probably sucks more than pretty much any one else's on here. Ha! I lose!

That's my favorite part. It's the billable hours that I hate.

I love my job and it loves me back. Sometimes it even leaves money on the dresser after it's done, but it's understood that it's just to help out around the house, not a quid pro quo sort of thing.
