In the words of avenue Q which is a great musical and I have seen it 3 times. Love every song. I am a big fan.. but anyway in their words.
“ What do you do with a B.A. in English,
What is my life going to be?
Four years of college and plenty of knowledge,
Have earned me this useless degree.”
I can't pay the bills yet,
'Cause I have no skills yet,”
Yes, I spent 4 years at uni, I have an honours degree in medicinal chem. But the closest I get to chemistry is I get to touch chem. glassware. I’m getting paid shit to dishwash in a chem. lab. It’s really depressing. I’m on my feet all day washing, real chemist’s glassware. When I’m just looking on at them in a job that did not even need a chem. Degree to get.
As far as I know this is one of the first pixs of flix not being overly happy. I do like working with my hands but I hate that I spent 4 years and heaps of money on a degree I don’t think I will ever use.
I’ve been told that I can come to work 5 days a week if there are dishes to clean, and I’m the one that controls how quickly the dishes get done, so I am basically encouraged to work slowly if I want to get 5 days worth of pay and penalized if I work quickly. So I invented lab laps, taking bluey (yes I named the dirty glassware bucket) for walks around the lab to make it look like I’m doing something useful.
I like work when there is something to do but lab laps are a waste of my time!
Funny thing about this pic.
I was showing it to work people and they would ask what it is, I would say “it’s me pushing a trolley around the lab” and then realised that I have said “me” instead of “a dragon” or a “bird” and hoping that they did not pick up on the fact I just said this creature is “me”. One lady said “you should make yourself nicer looking” little does she know how much that character is me. I am happier seeing myself as a purple mythical creature then the human that looks back at me in the mirror. I am Flix, and she is me.
I don’t know why I wrote this to the world and would even think people care. I think I’m just feeling a little down.
