still laughing

I finally finished all my article topics that I had in my queue for work and I was taken to the available topics list to choose 5 more.

I busted out laughing when I saw this one:

"Job Description and Career Information for Becoming a Payroll Specialist"

Oh yeah, I could write that one. HAHAHAHAHA.

Step 1: Wake up and curse your alarm clock.

Step 2: Prepare to be miserable. Chill a bottle of wine and check your supply of Advil. Have your loved ones hide all sharp objects. Keep tissues handy for frequent bouts of crying. Throwing up on occasion is also to be expected.

Step 3: Sit in your miserable cube all day and hate your existence. Make jokes about jumping out of windows, shooting yourself, or playing in traffic. Have a nervous breakdown over lunch. Put the phone on mute frequently to scream and rage at the stupidity of it all. Resist the urge to break things.

Step 4: Cry on the way home from work. Grumble about how much you hate your job all through dinner. Feel like throwing up at the thought of going in tomorrow. Go to bed.

Step 5: Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is your job description for becoming a payroll specialist.  Enjoy!

(In case you're wondering, no, I didn't select that topic. Let someone else do it who hasn't experienced that career themselves.)

Yeah, that pretty much applies for all of us at my job. Except we don't have cubicles.
