Waiting for......Something.....I guess.

Well, I just got the official news of my grade raise. I will be making more money for doing nothing more than what I'm doing now. The only difference is, I needed to write a paper on all the things I do in the course of my job, and give it to my supervisor to look over and rewrite. That is sent before a committee who reads it and determines if I do more in the course of my job than is required in my current job description. If this is so, I get a grade raise. TADA! Tax money being well spent on committees, sub-committees, and committees discussing what committees/sub-committees to create.

Another great expense happens tomorrow. I will be in training for which the government paid for. As I will not be at work, I will receive Authorized Absence pay. That is; I will be paid, by the government, for a day of work which will be spent at a class, paid for by the government. And all of this will be done for/given to me in the procurment of the previously mentioned raise, as I need to get training outside of the facility as proof that I am going above and beyond my job description. I'm doing it and writting about it and I still don't understand.

We'll see how it goes.
Best.
