Zoe: Yeah? Thought you'd get land crazy that long in port. Wash: Probably, but I've been sane a long while now, and change is good.

Our wings are not tired.

Amych that sucks although I am so out of it I still thought you were self-employed! Is that something you can go back to easily?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

It's something I can spin up again if it comes down to paying the bills, but I'd really prefer not to -- the major benefits of the real job thing at this point (at least for me) are (a) I suck rocks at the business part of business and (b) a good team and the kind of projects/scale/challenges that it really doesn't make any sense for anyone to tackle solo.

My least favorite thing that they spice up are chicken sandwiches, because I'd about bet that people buy chicken sandwiches looking for something chill, not something else to dump peppers on. Amych, best luck on the whole job thing.

Amych, I'm so sorry. I hope you have a restful week and find a fabulous new job after that.

Gotcha. Makes sense. I liked some things about consulting (I didn't mind the business side at all) but I do prefer having a team.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh no, amych! Good luck.

I'm sorry, amych. That does suck. When you're ready to start looking, let me know if you'd like me to share leads. In my search I find a lot of things that I'm not quite right for, but you might be.
