Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Natter 47: My Brilliance Is Wasted On You People  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I need a job that is 9-5, that pays as least as much as current job, and that comes with 3 weeks vacation.

One that satisfies... your artistic needs?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My company's hiring, msbelle. If you want to live in New Jersey...

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I can probably do HR, but I don't think I can earn enough at the level I would need start at. since you know, I have never done HR before.

I have no artistic needs from a job.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They already have candidates, anyway. Too bad!

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Weird. Totally weird attitudes toward employment. "I don't do that, but I'll take the money."

I think "I do X. You can pay me to do X, or somebody else will" is a better play.

I can't really see you happy as any kind of secretary. Even for 9-5.

Sometimes the money feeds much more important things and you don't have the luxury (fuck, I can't spell) of waiting around for someone to appreciate your brilliance. So you learn to bend and stretch and learn new things.

t checks back

Not entirely, msbelle. It was a reaction to the attitude in the discussion. I try not to be about personal attacks.
