    Yes. Then do as little as feasibly possible for a year, contact recruiters, bullshit your way into a higher salary at a competitor/similar position, and repeat

    It's how half of America earns a paycheck

    The other half like myself earn a paycheck by walking to the mailbox and collecting part of your income taxes.
    I would recommend your father dies at an early age so when your public employee mother retires you are the beneficiary when she passes

    I've always taken what I was offered and I was THANKFUL for it

    I you actually have a choice take the money. All jobs end up sucking because they are jobs. Might as well get paid. Plus one job can lead to another. You meet people

    I got an interesting offer this week on a job walk from another GC. People like me for some reason. IRL

    Because in person you're too nice to SAY IT TO THEIR FACE
    I don't have the GUTS

    I was always taught to respect my elders and as you become more and more senile I can see why you feel this way.

    Eh. I have a job I do like but doesn't pay as much as I want so I contract on the side.

    I do good work so I get offers but it's pretty cushy.

    Plus I like firing people

    That’s my entire life. STFU and go to work.

    Make money, have more options, make more money, have even more options.

    Lather, rinse, repeat.
