...you can't fall asleep because you're thinking about work...
...suddenly realize you haven't had an erection in a week (I'm borrowing that from somewhere--Monkey Business, maybe? but it's so true)...
...other people's typos annoy the shit out of you...
the typos thing is soooo true...
...all anyone will talk about is what "your number" is likely to be this year
...you pull a 40 hour work day.
you read ibankingoasis for entertainment...
...everyday feels like a Monday :-(
...U have a nagging, aching upper right molar but you just deal with it and chew everything from the other side because you know you won't get to a dentist until maybe late next year.
(This thread is just bumming me out.)
...you have a greater than 50% chance of getting paid more in one check than you earned all year with your salary...
(how about that for cheering you up?)
Man we all know we live a sad life (non-financially) when that's the only bright spot...
...it's working, it's working
sigh, almost worked until I consider how much I'm just donating in taxes towards people I've never met before and probably don't even like :-(
when you watch more YouTube than actual TV
...or when your DVR has a month-long backlog of Entourage and Family Guy....
...the last time you cooked a meal at home was years ago
....when you ask yourself how to get back to your house???
...you have a psychosomatic stomachache at all times when you're not in the building because someone might walk by your desk and see that you're not there.
Even at 4 AM.
...when someone at work starts to look attractive to you, but outside of work you know they'd scarcely be your type ;-)
...you consider business school to be a 2 year vacation
when you get excited for the weekend because you don't have to wear a suit
....the days becomes continous and so does your thinking process. mondays assignment is still the theme of your dream by friday night...
When you can't tell the difference between fired and laid off. (it doesn't matter: you're out of a job either way)
Seriously what is the difference between getting fired and getting laid off?
laid off=the firm doesn't need you anymore or your position was eliminated
u are so dumb i'm beginning to cringe when i see ur little avator even before i've read the post
Holy dog shit.
Fired = having lost your job (for whatever reason, doesn't mean you "fucked up bad")
Laid off = Dismiss, usually for economic reasons (can't afford to keep you here)
Oh, and a few others:
you complain about your hourly pay..constantly..
you think all Admin/BA are utterly incompetant
