“Sure, so with this change in the project, how do you intend for me to allocate the rest of my hours…?” She hit reply all, in the history of that button that was not a mistake. It was a callout to the entire company. It was a come one come all to the show of someone questioning her place in the company despite having a different position at the moment.
“Oh excuse me that I don’t shake my ass on the internet, but oh it’s totally fine in this context, but if I do it even slightly more proactively it’s a site for people interested in air conditioning during the summer months. Women can’t fucking win. She had been there for ten years on and off and this is all she gets is some new whatever trying to tell her what to do. No she was never given the better projects when she asked it was always pushed off to another day. Then some basic bitch would do the social media while her job gets replaced by AI then she gets gaslit for that even happening. Then they just shrug their shoulders of better luck next time as if the pay cut is so they can’t afford the fancy dinners, no it was the pay cut so she couldn’t get her car repaired or the diabetes medicine for Regan because she’s still working in customer service. No it’s always something where Audrey is assumed to always be better off that nothing can ever hurt her. It’s fine, because someone else would help her. Except when they don’t and she’s on the dirty street because it was too inconvenient and someone really wanted twenty of those bunny demon keychains to show their fake status. News flash they are still some cheap worker. No because they needed that landfill clogging junk, she had to worry about her safety every other week because they never bothered to write a contract for her and love to bend the rules, because she’s in such a wonderful position she should always be grateful and counting her lucky stars.
Then there are the women that don’t even acknowledge and act like Audrey had no trauma from this whole experience. No, she shouldn’t even have the job because her brother helped her. Those women deserve to have their face ripped off…(censoring unless it turns to a horror movie).
There is something about a “nepo baby” being this middle man between normal and stardom…because it’s specific stardom that everyone is watching you every moment every moment you have a single emotion and when you inevitably do burst then it’s your moral failing and not the masses poking at your sanity loving that someone fortunate has misery too. You always have to do more even if you are not more, even if you are just normal because with all those chances you have to work like someone having chicken broth for every meal. Every night every moment to be the best and then you are pitted with all the others prodded to be the best to play the sick game of the giants of the world. You’re too young to understand all the implications, but you have all the resources you should be a triple major in every social issue in the world with finishing school and your actual pursuits of science. No you are hailed until you have the slightest hesitation of a smile on a hard day. It’s always the worst most pathetic people that do this, but they always hold the strings to make her dance.
