Grease Monkey
Aug. 14th, 2021 08:32 pmI've been quiet this week because I've been particularly worn out from the day job. Now that it's the weekend, it's probably time to explain what's been going on. I'm taking a new position at my work, starting, uh, sometime soonish?
( Details under the cut... )
At some point between five minutes into the shift Monday morning and the heat death of the universe, I'm going to actually, officially get trained to be a setup tech, dayshift flavor. Team mechanic. Professional therapist to a stable of thirty-year-old machines. Grease monkey.
It's possible this is the most excited I have ever been about anything in my life, and I used to attend fan conventions every summer--I'm very liberal with my excitement. At some point, I'm going to write an even longer post about how this relates to my chronic case of the gender weirds, which it does. But for now, we'll leave it at "almost injuriously happy."
