My mom isn’t a “boomer” she’s 49 but she’s been getting on my nerves lately.
She’s been making little snide remarks about my job search. She keeps mentioning it’s “too soon to leave” (not a thing) after only about 9 months and I just need to “keep pushing and my company will recognize it”. I got a 2% raise, no promotion, and almost immediately was given like 2x more work. Was that the “recognition”?? And it’s about to be worse bc yet another person on my team is leaving and my manager is almost certainly going to give me 90% of his crap. My job annoys the fuck out of me and I have an opportunity to get a 20-25% raise if i hop jobs in a hot market. Why wouldn’t I do that?
I want a fully remote job, which she constantly scoffs at (even though she’s literally trying to secure enough clients to be a full-time REMOTE counselor/therapist, but ok). But I want a remote job because I’m “antisocial and don’t want to work hard or have to go anywhere” Well…yes? Did you want your precious son to be perpetually annoyed at work and pass up on money? I’m confused.
