For all intents and purposes I am my job and I'm tired of people trying to pretend like this isn't true. As a human I am worth exactly what I'm able to earn, not a cent more and I am judged by others first and foremost based on my job title. I am not inherently valuable.
I wish it wasn't like this, but this is the world we've built and all I can do is cope with it as those in power work on replacing me.
