You may as well know that the below entry may well be the last plumbing-trade-magazine-related post I ever make here. Reason?
I got a new job.
Did you hear the choir of angels just then? Because I did.
Three years ago, I accepted my current job with the intention of getting a different, better job RIGHT AWAY. A year into it, I was convinced that I was making my karmic payment for certain misbehaviors in my past. Two years into it, I convinced myself that I was strengthening my character. Three years into it, I was doing my best not to shoot myself in the head every single morning.
Of course, I exaggerate. But I have endured a paycheck 25% less than my male counterpart and getting slapped on the butt, among other things.
Let me just say that it is with great joy that I delete my “Job Hunt” folder on this computer tonight. Now bring on the beer.
