Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
I know the lost income will suck, but I just keep thinking about how good 100 days off would feel. Got any plans?
Find a job? I don't have one waiting for me at the end of the hundred. I'd have to find a new one. I do plan on going and seeing relatives, and we're going to LA in May.
I will also be writing.
So why do The West Wing and Sports Night go so well together? As fanfiction, and archives, and the like.
Both Sorkin shows.
Now--why are you getting/taking 100 days off?
Because a long, long time ago, some temps sued and ruined it for the rest of us? Or, you know, because large companies relied too much on contingent staff, so time limits had to be imposed. Take your pick of the two, truth is somewhere in the middle, as always.
Was that the brouhaha about using temps like regular staff?
Yerp.
Gods, I worked at a company like that, they never hired people for new positions, they always got temps and if they liked the person then they'd hire them--though not necessarily for the job they were doing. All jobs were only publicized in house, unless it was something highly specialized.
Plei, if you guys want to stop in SF on your way to LA, we'll feed you.
morning.
And yup, not only are WW and SN both Sorkin shows (I adore both and gave the SN DVD to Nic at Christmas), but there's the great character spillover. Donna Moss on WW? Same actress had a beautiful smackdown of Casey on SN for not thanking the Wardrobe department. Jeremy, of course, Josh Malina, is now Will Bailey on WW. And Felicity Huffman did a two or so episode arc on WW as a nasty Republican strategist.
We might do SF on the way back. We've not decided yet.
Well, if the LA thing is Memorial Day weekend, we may be down there ourselves. Nic actually gets a day off and I've been jonesing for a big breakfast at Nate & Al's.
