I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Trudy, good luck with the job and apartment hunts.

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

I'm about to be where Trudy is, but I haven't decided if I'll go back to Jamaica for a while. My parents could stand to be taken care of for a while, and my sister is doing it all by herself. I just need to be employed there too, and I don't even know if there's a BA market there!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Wow ita, that's a big change to consider. How does one do a multinational job search?

Just to see what would come up I googled 'Business Analyst jobs in Jamaica' and a few came up including this one

Where one of the qualifications is a:

"Bachelor's degree in Rosiness, Finance, Information Systems or related discipline from a recognized tertiary institution."

What in the world is "Rosiness?" And what's a "tertiary institution?"

Rosiness

Either it's a typo for business, or this is one optimistic, always-look-at-the-bright-side company.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

And what's a "tertiary institution?"

Basically, a college or a university. In many (most?) Commonwealth countries, school education runs you through primary school (elementary) and secondary school (high). Education post-secondary, of course, is tertiary.

Or racist/shadist?

The plan would be to amass some money so I start do another job search here, but it's all very nebulous. Any move is a big move.

Ahhh! That makes perfect sense.

That's happening tomorrow.

When are we going shooting? A Saturday morning before my meds would be convenient for me.
