So as of August 1st I become a level 33 bureaucrat. Okay, so that's straight out of Futurama. In fact I'm being promoted to A/L/C Grade 3. I've been sitting at the top of grade 2 for a few years, which means I only get the incremental pay rises and not the exponential ones I'd get if I was jumping up the scale every year.
What does it mean? Well, more money. More perceived responsibility (am doing my best to actually take on as little as possible). A hearty handshake from a colleague, who seemed to think it was a big deal. I don't know. I feel now like I'm in a job that should be supporting a wife and 2.4 kids with my salary.
I think it just means it'll be sooner that I can quit the job, let my house out, and spend the rest of my time travelling and making films! Well, you've got to have dreams...
