Please may I be a bot again?

I applied for a boring / potentially stressful customer service desk job at a large company. The job would be similar to the one that nearly drove me mental from its boring, repetitive tasks before I left for Korea.

Fuck me.* The sole thing that would drive me on for two years though (the amount of time I'd like to remain in this position, ideally) would be the fact that I need to save about $70,000 for grad school. And it would also be nice to be able to afford real groceries again.


*Please disregard the language. Been watching too much Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares on the Food Network.

*cringe* oh, i hope you don't get it. i mean, i hope you do and promptly get promoted into the quality department or something. sigh. why is grad school so insanely expensive there? 70Gs? it's just not right! and why are there no decent jobs in vancouver? ugh. customer support hell. maybe you could get a permanent teaching gig instead? there's got to be some short education program you could take and become a teacher, then you could save up from there to do the grad program you want to do... better than "hi my name is susie, how can i help you today?"

Tuition itself would be about 12 or 15 grand. It's the cost of living for 3 years that would add on 60 grand. It's a fulltime program so I wouldn't really be able to work (unless I'm superwoman like u)
