so i got the MAXIMUM raise allowable by my company for my level.

don't get excited.

it's a whopping 3.5%.



in case you weren't on the math team like me, 3.5% of nothing is nothing. i get paid peanuts.

i wonder the best, most balanced job out there is... one that pays decently, but is still interesting/creative/somewhat enjoyable...



gah.

maybe i'll give up the whole enjoyable part and just try to make as much money as humanly possible.

i know money isn't everything... but neither is fun-ness of your job, right?



the cynicism is creeping in...
