work news, or, what are you smoking and where can i get some

Question: Would you like to work longer hours and have more responsibility, but earn less money?

Answer:




















I have no answer. Only questions, such as, "How stupid do you think I am?", "What do you take me for?", and "Are you insane?"

So that's the upshot. They offered me the coordinator's position at a lower rate of pay than I'm currently earning, and I turned it down.

In addition, the contract position I now have is not going permanent (yet), and HR claims she never said it was. Or, she admits she said the job was going permanent, and also says that the job is not going permanent, or some double-speak like that.

Ah, well. At least it wasn't a difficult decision. And I'm still employed. (And still looking for more work.)
