I'm a paper pusher in a very small department of a very large organization. I have an assistant who is OK (I can boss her around), and a boss who is a bit of a diva. Someday I think "hey, this is not so bad!" and other days I want to run for the hills, today especially. It doesn't help that I'm so freaking anxious about the PhD applications.
It's not what I want to do forever, for sure, but it pays decently enough and the benefits are great. If I don't get into any of the schools, I'll start looking for a new job, hopefully in the same organization.
