I don't blame them honestly ^^;

it probably sounded like i was bragging and it IS hella rough out there...

but although i had a lot to say about why i enjoy this job,
what i REALLY want to impress upon others that they can have a place in it too, if they don't mind strange hours on inconvenient days.

(but bruh seriously thank GOODNESS it seems like nobody else wants to work weekends, because having tuesday wednesday thursday off is fuckin CHOICE--i can run errands, do doctor's appointments, visit a bank, go shopping, all while businesses are actually OPEN without having to take time off work!! :D plus TWT looks like a crying wolfy face and that's cute...!)

I would love to see more people climbing aboard and being the Big Damn Heroes who set things right when greed, hubris, and an irrational trust of hallucinating chatbots derails mission-critical assets. All the while as you're either assigning tasks to specialists in a cozy office making a reasonable wage or being the boots on the ground in the field changing big business' diaper for HUNDREDS of dollars per task, you can don the smug shit-eating grin of "we told you so" and THEY'LL say Thank You Sir May I Please Have Some More! :3
