I help setup ad placement TVs for resort style businesses.

Studied theoretical astrophysics and astro xenobiology as a double advanced major...

My boss used to brag he managed to get the astronaut in his team so, I am useful for facts and puzzles.

God I hate my existence.

Sorry chief I hate those TVs.

I'm sure you're great and everyone needs a little sugar in their bowl or whatever but... IDK. I hope you find a more fulfilling job soon.

LOL I hate those TVs too but don't mind when I get to install like just a good menu or informational directory. Key word good. But I'm just supposed to make a thing that works and looks good for the 11 seconds of your attention we expect to have of you.

The worst part is that I don't even make good money really. Just slightly more than a regular office job and I got here from doing my passion at the time of advanced robotic screens. But they are all hyper niches that are like impossible to move around or within.

But yeah gotta figure out what fulfilling means these days.
