some positives about working for the catholics i've noticed in my three-ish months:

they put their money where their mouth is re: being "pro-life" -- as in they invest a lot into family support and are the only place around here i know of that has full-pay maternity leave + they will help cover costs if you decide to adopt (up to 15k iirc).

at least own the fact that they're doing christmas. a lot of companies make the most lackluster effort toward being "inclusive" by doing christmas but being like "whaaaat? nooo this is just our winter holiday celebration". but they don't do anything for any other holidays. they close on christmas day and that's it. catholics? they're like. yeah we're catholic. we're doing christmas. come get drunk with us and then take a week off work. i love that.

this one is so insignificant but they let me tweak the user settings on my company laptop. at the library i couldn't even change the fucking mouse speed. the catholics will let me do whatever i want to this laptop, including turning off all the shit i don't like. i love that. i'm so particular about my computers and i appreciate the trust put in me in that regard .

#there are other positives fjdlkfdsjlkd i was just appreciating how much they let me tweak my laptop and was like.#yeah that's going on the list of things i like.#also SO many meetings start with prayers. i've sat awkwardly and silently through more prayers in the last 3 months #than i have in. like. my entire life prior to this combined.#carly.txt
