I have a JOB now. This means I can get one of those "salaries" things that so many people rave about.
My bank accounts will be overflowing into the streets.
Nevermind that now I have basically no free time for working on my projects and I have to get up at stupid o'clock in the morning and have to sit around writing code for someone else, to someone else's specifications, and every day will be exactly the same forever and ever even though that drove me into a state of horrid, frustrated depression back when it was only school and I got out at three and had different classes to go to and didn't I promise myself when I was younger that I would never let myself fall into this trap arrgh why oh why BUT HEY, MONEY! I'm a productive member of society now! Woo!
No, but really, I'm trying to see this as an opportunity. There are lots of people who would kill to have a job even remotely like mine. And I get a pretty good salary doing something I enjoy, probably. And maybe I'll learn something about C++ development? I mean, it won't drive me into a spiral of depression right away, right? I've got at least a couple of months before that happens.
I've been trying to find a job for months now, gorramit! This is supposed to be a good thing!
