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.

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

I believe in the naked interview, myself.

Because books.

I think you should get special treatment because you've already been doing the job for six years.

This. Jesus.

Also, I don't think I've ever done a phone interview where I didn't flip the interviewer the bird at some point

Hahahah. Glad to know I'm not alone.

Good luck, 'suela. I suppose "you're interviewing tomorrow" is better than "we hired someone else and he starts tomorrow"? But ugh.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Interview like a boss, Suela. As they say. Wait, do they say that, where a boss is actually something that might exist literally in the conversation? They probably don't say that.

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

I think you should get special treatment because you've already been doing the job for six years.

Yes, this. At least on the phone, no one can hear your eyes rolling.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

At least on the phone, no one can hear your eyes rolling.

For real, tho.

Man, I thought having to get references when my boss converted me from contractor to perm (as well as do my own heavy lifting to prove my degree--way to go last minute panic that somehow I didn't have one) was bad, but no--that was irritating.

This--this is wrong. Whole 'nother vibe.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Ugh, I think I have to drop out of my chorus for this cycle. I couldn't face it last week, and can't deal with it again tonight! Just due to exhaustion and wanting to go to bed early.

Coding and Sleeping

Maybe it would help to sing of good things not bad, sing of happy not sad
