Guys n gals, they may pay you here, they may " give" you a rating and they may eventually promote you, but no one can be prepared for the effect of living your life in grey polluted air . There are no green views just grey everywhere , for 80% of the year.
You do get accustomed to it though , if that helps. My kid coughed throughout the winter months, so I'm fearful of the long term effects.
Unfortunately , Im unable to move from here as Im not going to start again at the bottom of a seniority list. Im sucking it up, literally .
