I miss SAP. This place has a piece of poo poo from the late 90's that I have to run direct sql commands on if I want anything slightly different from what's built in.

Really you should be saving, it is very important that you save. No, no, what are you talking about, "student loan debt"? Seems like you should've majored in something other than gender studies or underwater basketweaving :smugdog:.

If I picked up coding in addition to accounting I'd turn into a total uber-nerd and who would want that?

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

astrophysics and religion both bring me joy and comfort but this loving job has plunged me straight into existential despair. who am i? what is my purpose? do i actually matter to anyone or anything? can i effect real change in the world or am i doomed to be a self-loathing paperwork drone forever with no reprieve until my death? what if my life is just a glimpse into the great cosmic theatre and instead of working in an office for three months i've been trapped in a perpetual cycle of reincarnation into a perpetual population of self-loathing office drones or the contextual technological equivalent for three eons? what if this is all there is? not just now, not just for me, but forever and for everyone? what if this IS as good as it gets for my species?

You should cherish your office work and being reincarnated in corporeal form because I was a stapler in my past life as a office worker

Maybe once you have the answer you'll regret asking the question in the first place, or maybe the universe is trying to prove to itself that it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
