Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I've come to whine. I've been temping at a job that is in a field I'm familiar with, and pays well. I got the chance to apply for it, but was told yesterday that I won't even get an interview. Because at the time that I applied, I was under qualified. However, I was also told that if the job were open for applications today, I would be more qualified because I've been doing it for 6 months!

My only hope, and this is directly from the guy doing the hiring, is that they don't like anyone they interview and have to open it up again. But, they'd have to go through the whole process again.

Meanwhile, I don't know how long the temp job will last. Until they hire someone, I guess but they weren't sure how long it would take.

I desperately wanted this job! I'm beside myself with frustration, but don't think there is anything I can do.

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

Oh, fuck, Nora. I'm so very sorry.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Nora, that is terrible and frustrating ad awful for you, your dad and your mom. I'm so sorry.

I'd already used "lady-cojones" on Twitter, so I didn't want to be redundant.

smonster, thanks! I'm still so excited and happy. And you and Maria were my awesome start. I will never forget that.

Um. I also queried Mark Cuban for a quote. And his PR person told me she'd cc'd my query to him, and that he might provide one.

LADY-COJONES, ACTIVATE!

Form of: nerves of steel.

Shape of: boundless audacity.
