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.

Job~ma, Amy. And to others who are in similar job hunting situations; too many of us out there.

Oh, -t, I'm so, so sorry. How shocking and awful for you.

Punishingly Intricate

Amy, good luck!!!

Have you checked idealist.com job listings? I've been looking at those a lot lately and it seems like they list jobs I haven't seen on other job sites.

Job ~ma for Amy and MM and everyone else who needs it...which, it turns out, is me too.

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

Uh, what, bonny? What happened?

Job~ma to everyone who needs it!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Good luck, y'all!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Tons of job~ma to Amy, MM, bonny, Dana, shrift, and anyone else who needs it (Calli, Hil, Scola?). And a hearty dose of recognize-the-awesome-that-is-this-applicant~ma to the places and people they're reaching out to.

ION, man, this place is seriously grim and grey when it rains. I don't even mind grim and grey all that much ordinarily, but the combination of the grey and the open space is a little unsettling. We're tiptoeing around talking in hushed voices and feeling lost and adrift, and every now and then someone's head will pop up over a cubicle wall and hastily duck back down, like a meerkat scoping for predators. I feel certain I just read about this place in The Phantom Tollbooth.
