As of this week I’m doing major, whole-process Quality Assurance at work. I’m doing fine so far, although there’s a lot of work to do; I’m also getting paid, oh, probably a third of what the other people in QA make. I’ve never received a raise since I started here as a flunky last summer, even though back then my job was “generate simple reports in Access” and now it’s “fix real bugs and test entire processes.” When I get all this testing done–hopefully by next Monday–I’m going to ask for one.
