Yesterday I got an email, and today I talked to them… tomorrow I go there to check things out and learn. It’s manual-printing and data-entry and other office tasks. Part-time; two days a week. We’ll see how it goes… but a couple of hundred dollars a week is much better than nothing… ---

Good luck! If the combined force of many internet strangers pulling for you means anything in the universe, you should be fine. 🙂 ---

And I did some work today and got some money. 🙂 It’s a small company in the northeastern sector of the city, and they may need me more than they originally thought. Manual production, organizing workflows, updating catalogues, setting up pre-made jobs for the printer… they’ve been running so hard to keep up with themselves that they haven’t been able to streamline things. ---

Great news! Hope you get as many hours as you want! Goddamnit. I was supposed to send you some books, wasn’t I? Shit. Will get on that. Have been busy and it completely escaped my mind. Sorry. ---

Manual production, organizing workflows, updating catalogues, setting up pre-made jobs for the printer… they’ve been running so hard to keep up with themselves that they haven’t been able to streamline things. That’s great! In my experience, once a company gets to know you and how you work, they’ll often do what it takes to keep a good worker around. Fingers crossed for you! ---
