Lol, turns out even my supervisor has no idea there were these employee goal things so it really is a total box ticking exercise...

Aw thanks, that's really nice of you re: job. It's just been bad timing that this job was advertised when it was. I absolutely can't sacrifice my last shot at finishing this degree (would need to start redoing subjects otherwise) and I know I simply can't handle the chaos of transitioning jobs moving forward. I like that my existing jobs are somewhat braindead which leaves me more space to work with uni, life, etc. Whereas I'd be burning the candle at both ends wanting to put in 110% at the job while also finishing uni. I also needed some down time professionally after my last job.

I'll definitely be putting in for jobs like that once I wrap up uni mid next year!
