   I should be upset about being told nobody is getting a pay raise this year but I'm just too defeated at this point.
   
   Genuinely wish they would just fucking fire me because I'm too much of a coward to do anything about this on my own.

     @dps910 I've been to his home. I can find my way there on backroads. He'd never see me coming. But it isn't his fault, so

     @prettygood Geeze, I am so sorry to hear that. I have been in that position before, and I know it sucks; especially when you feel trapped like you can't do anything about it.
     If it helps you feel any better at all, I'm cheering for you at least. And as ever, I'm an open ear if you need one. (XMPP blew up for the moment so it'd have to be something else for now).

     @pwm there's no big crowds to start fights at bar close time. And no bars. Maybe Tudor's Biscuit World is hiring

     @Mammal @BitBun I'm not the only one around here either. My team lead replied by doing some napkin math to determine that you should spend ~7.5 days per year doing absolutely no work to even it out.
