I forgot to account for the notion that 5 days a week of 9-5 is absolutely exhausting.
It's even worse when there are lots of rules and regulations. And when all of them are kept in the shadows, so you have a sense of trying to do things properly, but then not having any idea of what that means.
Contractors are 2nd class citizens. No travel, no being allowed to join "employee groups", (even if I end up contributing). And there is no loyalty and no sense of accomplishment. And seeing your co-workers being burned. And trying to support J, when she wants her ego stroked, but she is hesitant to sneak me past the hotel staff in the lobby. (Rolling my eyes)
Has she never been in a hotel before? Or does she just not want to offer to share a hotel-then say so! She encouraged me to get a hotel room, and to charge overtime to pay for it. (BC me fraudulently charging the company for HOURS is less of a sin than sneaking me through the lobby)
We were invited to have dinner, but I have to get home before the last train. I will try not to be too catty in the moment when I remind her why I have to miss dinner.
Funny to be pressured into paying by someone who has a REGULAR JOB, benefits, and job stability.
