I just don't understand why I don't get paid more for this.
Because TPTB are always trying to get something for less than it's worth. The title you may be able to do something about. Reclassifications of positions aren't unheard of.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Oooh, Allyson! If you work really hard, you might be Senior Secretary.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I am a Senior Secretary. I should be an Administrator. I think.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
If you work really hard, you might be Senior Secretary.
I originally read this as "Señor Secretary" and had to do a double-take.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
I get testy with Southerners who make blanket statements about New Yorkers,
Hey! Ginger's met my dad!

Heh, I was just in Pensacola with the southern branch of the family, and the inevitable (no, really, it is inevitable in this group) blanket statement about yankees came up, but a firm, "Hey, now..." from yankee me cut 'em all off at the pass. Sometimes, they forget. I remind them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sometimes, they forget. I remind them.
Valuable for everyone, sometimes.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
For that matter, I get testy with Southerners who make blanket statements about New Yorkers, when I have probably been helped by more nice strangers in New York than any other city.
One of my friends in college had wanted to apply to Bryn Mawr, but her parents wouldn't let her, because they said the North was evil. (I never quite figured out what definition of "evil" would include suburban Pennsylvania but not New Orleans.) Also, a bunch of people who told me that they'd never live in New York, because it was too dangerous. (But again, willing to live in New Orleans? I like New Orleans, but within the four years I was there, several students at my university were murdered.) But on the other hand, there were plenty of comments about the South from my friends back home.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Having admitted this, I feel that my assertion that, e.g., Alex Rodriguez occasionally reaches for the funyuns and chows down baby brains instead, will be taken as a reasoned opinion, rather that as a stupid criticism.
Dude, A-Rod totally eats baby brains for breakfast when he's not munching on freshly minted millions. He's eeeeeeeeeeeeeevil.

I'm going to keep making fun of tourists anywhere, though. Not the good tourists. The bad ones. That travel in mobs.
There is someone in the nearby apartments who sleeps in the early evenings. How do I know? I can hear snores. Loud loud LOUD snores. They almost echo. It is hilarious.
