I finally got a job. My best friend’s husband is a detective with the county police and he got me a temp job filing police reports–not a dream job, just something to get some money coming in so I can get out of my mother’s house. I do get a spiffy police department ID badge though, so that’s kinda cool. And hangin’ out the police station means policemen, so that is very cool. The job is boring but it pays well because it’s with the county.
BUT…I can’t surf the net at work, so that’s seriously going to cut into my board time. And I have a bedtime now because I have to get up in the morning (I’m past it right now because I stayed up to watch the baseball game).
Sigh. This being a grownup thing really isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. If only I could find someone to pay me to sit around, crack wise and look beautiful.
I agree with you whole-heartedly....I need to win the lottery so I can sit back, relax and just do whatever I feel. That crap about waking up in the morning is the worst invention ever... :)
The good thing is that I happen to have a lead on an employer who'd probably pay you to sit around, crack wise and look beautiful...
Reeaallllly. Do tell. I’m not cheap, but of course I’m very worth it.
Well, now that the Yanks have finished humiliating the Mariners–I’m an O’s fan, so I really should hate the Yanks, but y’know, right now I’m overlooking that–I must get some sleep so I don’t nod off in the summonses tomorrow.
Oh, and Robot Arm, having worked for Domino’s (pizza snobs can shaddup and go somewhere else right now) for four years, I don’t get as excited about pizza as you might expect. It was a nice try, though.
I know you are![sub] I mean he does…[/sub] My employer asks that you forward full-color nude snapshots. [sub]Yea that’s it![/sub] He’ll make his decision soon.
Awww, Geo, we’ll just have to treasure what few posts yuo can make that much more, on account of their rarity. At least you’ve got the job, so accentuate the positive. They can probably make it easy for you to get a CCW permit if you want one too – you can be the Avenging Angel of Baltimore!
I call dibs! Sorry, Kaotic, you may have been here first, but you were too slow calling dibs. And if this board has taught me anything, it’s that a person can call dibs on everything.
So I’ve got dibs on hiring Geobabe to sit around crack wise and look beautiful and any full-color nude pics that may accompany that.
All right, Crunchy, just as soon as you send me financial statements proving you can afford me, those pics are on the way.
Uh, Cap’n Crude, Baltimore? Where on earth did you get that from? That would make Weirddave very happy, I am sure, that you mistook me for a Baltimoron, but I am a native Washingtonian. That’s an important piece of information; make sure you file that away for future reference.
So do you get to take home any souveniers from the confescated items closet?
Do they let you play with the handcuffs in your spare time?
Can you run some background checks on a few enemies of mine?
You are such a clever girl, Cranky. And I’m not just sayin’ that cuz we’re pals and all.
Hey Venus, which Northern VA did you think I was talking about?
And I’m sorry to report, kids, that my job, despite being with the police department, is shockingly boring and utterly devoid of all the things that make police work fun. You’ll have to supply those on your own.
