How to survive a non-profit job

#1. Read "verbal self-defense"
#2. Avoid checking e-mail when you are NOT working - since there'll be 10 waiting for you on your day off
#3. Do things slowly, or else they will overload you because they think you are a superwoman
#4. Try not to have a car - don't think this one will compensate for gas
#5. Have imaginary friends
#6. Stay healthy - because you are not going to get any sympathy if you fall sick
