What does your boss have that you don't? I couldn't settle for being an employee when some other guy equally as capable is giving me orders. I'd just become a boss.

Because I watched Birds of Prey and listened to this song:

I definitely do not shine like gloss. but after watching Birds of Prey I think I'm OK with that, because the movie was really, really bad

I do not receive notifications, so using the @ feature will not do anything. I might see your post and respond though if I have already been in the topic.

You say it's more problems yet another man is able to handle those problems. So what makes him better than you?

Why?

because she legitimately loves the job, the mission, the organization.

im just in it for a paycheck. She makes 15% more than me with 75% more hours. Seems like a no-brained decision to me.

I enjoy doing technical work and engineering, not managing people. My company provides plenty of opportunity for people to move up into management positions if it is what they want to do.

It's a European company and never in 1,000 years would they allow an American to climb the ladder that far.

if you can't "handle managing people" or w/e it's a huge indictment.

My only boss is the owner and he inherited ownership from his dad. My dad does not own a business, so that's preventing me from taking that position somewhere.

It's not for free, and if you actually enjoy it's not "giving your time away"...

I can see why you're resigned to being a worker.
