Antiwork

In Romania it’s just also F-upped, my puts in her notice. First of weird is because she is a team leader she has like 42 days notice while a normal worker has like half 🤦‍️.

This is gonna sound like a weird thing to get hung up on, but just bear with me here. When I was in high school, I absolutely despised the very idea of the SAT.

Is this a common thing for anyone else?
