You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

I didn't get the job. Just got an e-mail.

Damn.

But, I do have a beautiful creative writing portfolio to turn in tomorrow. Just got back from the printer, and they look GREAT! Big props to Deena. EVERYONE should hire her to do their graphics work :)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It was a wierd series of Greatest Hits albums. The Jackson 5 one didn't have "I'll Be There" on it.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Oh, vw, I'm so sorry. They are missing out on a great person.

Sorry, vw.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Many times songs don't make "greatest hits" compilations due to a copyright issues stemming from long-ago battles and egos.

I'm glad you got home ok, askye.

And yay for vw's former bosses (and boo to the folks who turned down the chance to be her future ones)!

I know this is completely silly, but I'm feeling like a complete failure. See, interviews are like the one thing that I've always done very well at...and recognized that I do very well at. For some reason, I can go in and sell myself during an interview.

Apparently, I've lost that gift.

It's so weird, 'cause I've done so many positive things today...ordered my iPod, finished my beautiful creative writing portfolio, negotiated with the former employer. Why does one thing going wrong just completely destroy me, when so many things today showed my strengths and positives? My brain can be so damn frustrating.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But, vw, who says you didn't do very well in the interview? The existence of a candidate whose skills are better aligned than yours with the position doesn't negate that.

If all it took was an interview, I could skip all that effort on polishing resumes, much less filling them.
