I think there are actual egg-piercer gadgets.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Single-function tool, eh? Alton would disapprove.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Does Berea have a career advice type person? Do you want a career thing to start with, or are you happy in a multi-person household and working a diner while you decide what you want to do?
Berea does have a career office, run by a crazy lady I love.
Browsing all these ads suggests that I need, like, six years experience for anything. And I could live with multi-person housing as a barista (can't imagine working in a diner) for awhile, though I'd eventually have to find something.
How do people find jobs? Really? Because even just looking at the ads makes my head kind of hurt.

You could also use it to poke zealots.

People find jobs usually through peeps they know. So, you know, spam us with your resume, keep talking through what you want to do, and talk with Career Woman about the practical stuff, too.
My mother has an egg poker. I want to steal it, because it rocks.
I think she actually has several.
Plus egg cups, but I don't think we used those after my toddlerhood was over.

::wince:: I think my resume kind of sucks. It's all over the place. Do people make resumes for specific jobs?

They do.
I'm not sure what the fresh out of college do these days for resumes--I had precious little experience, and did a lot of temping to make up for that, which, technically, I'm kind of still doing.
I'd also call the big temp agencies in major cities and see if there's someone there you can talk to about possible work stuff. I'll email you my technical agency's info--they may have something suited, or someone with the time to talk to you about things. (Won't be until tomorrow, as I have to dig it up when I'm at work.)

I think I'll try a pin before spending money on a pricker (ooh, I like that word). Thanks Cass!
eta: I think I'm about six years old right now, but I've been at work for about 11 hours and had dental work today, so I guess that's ok.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
You could also use it to poke zealots.A pin will do that as well.
Also I have not fallen for any egg pokers prickers yet. I shall have to see if I want to remedy that.
