all I kept being told when I was interviewing was to send a typed business-type letter or an email.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

See, I've heard hand-written before, and I'm starting to think it might be charmingly retro.

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

I sent emails. And apparently they were what tipped the decision in my favour. If only I still had them.

Which is to say, if you're doing snailmail, go simple.

What's the timeline of their decision? I'd not have waited in my scenario for USPS to get there. And my recruiter was of that mind too.

I sent them my resume in March. They're not so fast. But maybe I'll just do the email, except for the CEO -- she seems old-school enough to appreciate paper. I was hoping to get rid of some of these notecards, though!

Send them to Perkins, one per shoe.

I have notecard issues in that I should be keeping track of which I sent to who. Why send L two identical Hello Kitty ones when she might also like Rupert the Bear?

Possibly not a real problem, just one I created in my head.

I was hoping to go on a note SPREE, not just send the one! Maybe I'll just start sending random notes to people. But not ransom notes, which I typed the first time.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

A polka-dotted ransom note from Jesse would be AWESOME.

I was just thinking that.
