I was today year-old when i discovered that there's types of fun. Type 1 , Type 2, Type 3 and even Type 4! Being in the Admin world should fall under Type 4 fun🤣

I had no idea there were gradations of fun. I usually look at it in a binary sense. I am either having fun or I am not having fun. Lately, I have to say, my job is not fun.

I was so shocked to find out also! I would never have thought!

Hi- I’m an hourly AA, been on the role for 6 months now and it’s my first AA job. I did not get a raise when I took the job because it was technically a demotion ( I was a team leader at a contact center). I assist two VPs and now they want to add a third because they’re looking for the “ 3:1 ratio “. Should I ask for a raise? Is this normal? I know another AA that handles 3+ people but idk if she’s hourly or salary. Any thoughts?
