Stupid no-win scenarios

I think I quit the wrong job. The place I'm working for does pay better than REI but that's about it. so far, job satisfaction appears to be zero. plus I get no vacation time and I get no sick leave. For a climber - that sucks. no road trips for me for a while ... *sigh*. No retirement benefits either.

REI definitely also wins out on better work environment. People there at least seem not to mind their jobs - and the admin try to keep the place fun (outdoor industry people and their team games!!!). I've also got to dress up like a corporate lawyer...

Hopefully things will be better once we start running subjects. If it still sucks, maybe I should try working at A-16 for a while and quit the science industry altogether.

waaaaaahhh... man I complain too much.
