I deserve her job

No posts today, one can only guess that poor MM woke up a bit groggy, what with having stayed up past her bedtime last night watching the primaries.

God, I wish I had her job. She spends a few hours writing meaningless crap, and then calls out the next day cause she was up late doing it. Can you imagine if you worked at a car factory and pulled this crap?

Worker: Can't come in today boss.
Boss: Why not?
Worker: Well, I was up really late last night, but I was making cars out tinker toys so technically it was working.
Boss: Oh, well, that's okie. As long as you were being productive.

Seriously, I'm chronically injured. I am FORCED to sit around all day, but no one pays me for my skills. MM, who has a strong back and could easily be doing something productive, like serving coffee or mopping jizz, gets paid to be lazy and useless.

The world is unfair.

They're not called jizz-moppers anymore. They prefer to be called emission removal experts.

Please make a note of it.

Seriously, does her job pay more than say, $60K per year?

Certainly no more than $80K, as I'm sure Washington is expensive. W/ freebies (nice hotels @ conferences, etc.) the opportunity to meet & kiss-up to her betters, & Asymmetrical Information as a base from which to write other crap, I'm sure it's worth her while.
