You should quit.

I just got done editing and authoring DVDs of little girl beauty pageants....5 states worth. These little girls ranged anywhere from 4-19 years old. It was quite possibly the worst month of my entire life.
They each had talent competitions and things like that. Not one of them could sing, which most of them tried to do. Torturous, I say!

Let's see...  Preparing the accounting for the audit, which means finding the proper code for each piece of paper (there's a lot of paper, plus we're doing two companies).  This is all by hand.  Ummm, doing research into philanthropic foundations.  Compiling old text to create a package that explains what our companies are like.  Taking a lot of fucking shit.  Ummm...  

Or alternately clearing away the dishes and leftover glassware from stars and starseekers or bat mitzvah attendees while always smiling.

I guess I'll take my boring job over that any day of the week!  

This job is pretty bullshit free, so that helps a lot.

Yes...  It also helps to have other things going.  If these things were all I did, I don't think I could do it.  Benefits are pretty wicked.  I have NEVER worked at a job where I get benefits.
