Status Updates From The Truth According to Ember

Enjoying the romance but tbh I am waiting with baited breath to see where this corporate tech startup work plot is going!! Like, what is it going to say, politically??

Just as I was saying:

"I had been at Technix for two weeks now, and this was what I had to say about all the red tape, gatekeepers, and requirements to get this job—all that was pointless. Anyone could do this job. Ember, who only graduated high school, could do this job. Joanna could learn to do this job. Hell, even boneheaded Sage could do this job. That thought made me bitter and a little resentful."

I find this fun, not stressful (as many reviewers seem to have felt). I just relate to Amber a lot and there are many details that ring true: the bullshit acronyms in a field of work, knowledge gatekept by apps you have to pay for, etc etc. Like, the actual work isn't that difficult, but getting to do that work is hard because of all these walls put up.

girl if you don't stop lying about stupid shit (i know she won't)

Delightful ❤️
