[Celerity]

this is fucking horseshit man. I'm the head of a department, ivy league.

 

[Seany-izzle]

help desk?

 

[Celerity]

yeah, a few shifts. I'm in a good position. My last company sucked, and I got shit pay (Like really shit pay) so when this offer came along, I didn't negotiate - I sprung on it like a cat on catnip. Not foolish, because now I offer such a service at such a low cost that they love me.

Priced into the market FTW. I make $4666 and get paid once a month.

How tax-friendly is your state? - Apr. 12, 2006

how is this horseshit? is the $4666 before taxes?

thats the thing, i'm not a help desk. I'm a manager of a team. I do ALL the training for people who pay thousands of dollars for software. plus i have experience, a degree, and was a financial advisor. i was made for this position.
