Ich bin jung und brauch das Geld >_>

[oloriel]

*sigh*

Yep, I renewed my contract with the Evil Company of Nuclear Doom Prevention (TM) again. Yes, I hate the job and it bores me to frustration, and it would be way better for my future if I ditched it and a) focused on studying entirely or b) at least got an internship or something that has actually to do with what I want to do with my life, but the sad truth is that I do not get paid for studying (on the contrary) and internships get at best compensated by some symbolic sum, whereas even with the new crappy tax class I slipped into due to marrying (nb: if you're a student, your tax class changes for the worse when you marry) the crappy job at the Evil Company is relatively well-paid.
After all, the future is Then, and I need the money Now.

And that is the only thing I'll be able to tell prospective interrogators HR people in prospective future job interviews when they ask why I didn't do all the lovely profound internships they want to see, instead doing a boring student assistant job in a field that has nothing to do with my training: I was young, had a house, and needed the money.

It's always the week after Daylight Savings ends that brings all the dammed-up frustration up, eh?

Also, am already missing NaNo and it's not even November yet; but this is absurd, I really must make it Write Your Fucking Thesis While Renovating A House And Making Money Month, there is no bloody time for a novel. *heartbleed*

Life needs a pause button, like, badly. Whose life is it anyway?

Life needs a pause button? Oh yes, def-fucking-inately. *moan*

Ja, DAS Gefühl kenn ich. Mit dem leb ich seit vier Jahren. Das, was ich gern tun würde wirft nicht genug ab und ... ja, wir brauchen das Geld, das der sichere Job hier bringt.
Aber wie heißt es so schön in 'The Devil wears Prada':

'To jobs that pay the rent!'
