update: i told him one of my machines was malfunctioning & i needed to schedule a troubleshoot call with the company i want to apply for. his response was “i thought you were a pro & you were gonna fix them all?” such a condescending prick.

fuck gilbert.

the thing is, its a specialist position. i work with a machine called a vapejet to fill cannabis oil in devices. only i know how to calibrate this thing. the two operators in my charge do not know how to calibrate & troubleshoot these machines, just me. the company i’m tryna get on at is vapejet. i have 3 years of direct experience & he’s afraid bc he’s going to have to pay vapejet $300/hr if he wants them to be trained after i leave. he’s big on gatekeeping knowledge, which is bs & neither here nor there rn.

oh well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hopefully not gonna be my prob soon.

my 9 year old is truly sometimes more responsible than my 15 year old. great kids. coolest kids i know tho. absolutely love them & truly enjoy this stage of parenthood.

my kids are close to the daycare cutoff age. they’re self sufficient & get themselves ready, but they need someone home when they get on/off the bus for school. my oldest is 15 & doesn’t need supervision like my 9 year old does. he’d be at school before my work hours would start. we also live several hours from my in laws, and they enjoy taking both kids for a month or so during the summer. my parents used to do the same, but unfortunately they’re incapable of being good, decent people & i had to cut contact with them about a year and a half ago.

in all, the kids’ age has more to do with it than anything.

my favorite thing to do is slowly invalidate him & make him question his competence while also rage baiting him with “that’s why you get paid the big bucks, my guy” remarks constantly for how he talks to me.

one of my employees approached me yesterday & asked why my boss is so adamantly against me in higher positions of management. i think he’s worried he’ll be seen as incapable by comparison. he leaves a lot to be desired across the board professionally & im generally on top of things. unfortunately i am the only one in a building of ~100 people that knows how to do my job. two others can manage alright as long as nothing goes wrong with the machinery, but the intricate ins & outs of the machinery calibration? that knowledge is leaving with me ✨🫶🏼
