I feel bad about complaining because it's the best paid job I've ever had. Pays literally double what I made before. I was originally promised 3 days a week working from home. Despite the long commute that seemed manageable. Unfortunately I didn't get that written into my contract, so that changed to 2 days WFH, then down to 1.

@xorlou@lgbtqia.space honestly, no need to feel bad when they retracted the given word and 4h commute, hell. :neobot_hug_blob_sad:

Money is a bad motivator in my experience, and to me the worth of a job isn't necessarily measured in salary. CC: @xorlou@lgbtqia.space

@xorlou@lgbtqia.space You know my feelings on a career break. While moving house is super stressful, wouldn't living half way between the two metropolises give you more rural space to run around with your new, and very cute, dog?
