jesus fucking christ it's good to have a contract though
#i was having trouble feeling excited about it bc my immediately subsequent job was to field emails from people with technical questions#but in fact. it's good to have a contract#~$85/yr dental insurance! a vision plan that is only worth it in glasses-purchasing years but at least is worth it then‚ and exists now!#if you get trapped in University HR Department Harassment Investigation Hell for more than 6 months you can just go straight to arbitration#if you're working with chronic hazard exposure they have to give you regular hazard-specific preventive care!#every J1/F1 worker just gets $1200! because immigration is fucking miserable!#there is now a review process meant to prevent people from getting fired because they 'failed their prelims' in cases where that is#overtly a fig leaf for either 'advisor got bored of your project' or 'you are a woman in a mechanical engineering lab'#and while that one's not grievable for complicated reasons we DO get to put grad workers on the review board.#anyway. um. i think i did an okay job at my negotiations job‚ overall. is my main thought here#box opener
