All of my bosses that make 5x my salary are masters of one. They are so extremely good at what they do but absolutely nothing else, to a crazy extent. I feel like I'm good at a lot of things but it's not as lucrative to be this way :/

You have multiple bosses that make 5 times your salary? The fuck do you do for work?

Lmao it's more just that I don't make very much at all so it's easier for them to make that many times more than my salary. I'm in biotech

As an example I had to show my boss recently to use Windex because they were getting ready to use dishwasher detergent to clean a glass window. It's great.

Why did you correct them? With that much of a wage gap, you should have popped popcorn to share with the other wage slaves while you watched him try to figure out how to fix what he just did.

I didn't want to have to fix it haha

Unless it is something you had fixed before or proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that you knew how to fix, you are a biotech engineer. Last time I checked Dawn wasn't a biological entity and the tech angle is suspect at best.

Lmao that's great I should do this. Feign ignorance of absolutely everything aside from my bench work

[–] Adalast@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

It is what you were hired to do, isn't it?

Yeah see someone who makes decisions like that definitely isn't making good enough decisions at their job to be getting paid 5x more than you.
