Ive… been. (US) I became less terrified of potential results of next election, and borderline excited after the Tim Walz news!

In less fun, the “temporary team” I joined at work to help out with a project for a few months just became my entire job (position was taken from my boss by bosses bosses boss and moved to form a new… department?) I was initially given a verbal “out” to go back to what i was doing, and it feels like a bait and switch, plus the job is functionally to automate myself out of a job within like, a year.

Its a federal job, so its not like they’ll fire me but still kinda bullshit. So I’m strongly considering looking for a different job now. I found this out yesterday after lunch. I am not happy.

All that said, I have been wanting to leave this state, so it might be time to see what my options are elsewhere (and have a bit of space away from family, and really explore transitioning in a safe state/environment).
