T minus 6 days and counting [update]

The deed is done. Not that there were any discussion regarding my salary to talk about. I asked if the amount on the contract was final. And it was. For the time being anyways. That is what you get for changing contracts in the middle of a “term”, and then you have to go with the flow. She promised me a bigger rise in the spring when there are salary negotiations again. I am very pleased with having a monthly salary now with all the holidays coming. It feels safe. I don’t need to worry about how much my pay check will be from now on (yes, well not more than that it could be larger).

But, alas, I will miss these involuntary free days that can make a whole week!
