Antiwork

My sister’s finally quitting and I’m so so happy for her

She’s basically been serving as the paralegal for a family owned law firm for the past two years on top of being the office admin and a veritable accountant to boot. She comes home on lunch breaks/at the end of the day in tears. She’s miserable, doing the jobs of five people for $54k a year. She’s always had a bad case of “eldest daughter” syndrome, and her workplace takes full advantage of that, but not anymore! It’s not even that her boss is particularly terrible, it’s just everyone decides to fuck off and pile the work on her. The actual paralegal hasn’t been back to the office in almost 2 years, shouldering her with all his shit, and yet he gets paid nearly $10k more than her?? Make it make sense. She’s sticking it out for a month more to stay on health insurance and get some stuff squared…

She’s sticking it out for a month more to stay on health insurance and get some stuff squared away, and then she’s out. And I’ll be here with a megaphone cheering her on in case she gets cold feet. She deserves better, and I’m so happy she’s finally putting herself first 🥳
