It's like the fates don't want me to have a job. I guess it's off to Meijer with me.

I really should have invested in a more useful degree, like Astronomy.

Writing is as simple, and as complicated, as telling the truth as you see it.

I'm sorry to hear that you lost your job Jenn. I was happy that at least someone I knew (besides Misty) that had a job in the industry. I question my crappy degree every day that I'm not using it as I should. You just have to remember that things happen for a reason. It may seem bad, or hurtful at the time, but it is all going toward something great. I wish you the best of luck in all you do.

I quit, I didn't lose it. They were really upset that I quit too.

I was allergic to everything they used there. All of the inks. I hd migraines every day, and I was miserable because I was alone in Chicago. It wasn't worth $12 an hour.

However, I now find myself unemployed yet again, with no prospect of working anywhere but retail for minimum wage.

Strange monsters have been seen in the Barrier Peaks? That sounds boring. We continue on to the south.

Now the story unfolds. Well, I still feel bad for you. It has to be tough getting the migranes. You're absolutely right about the money too. $12.oo is definatly not worth going to Chicago every day. I'm miserable at my job every day too. I thought the castle was bad, but this isn't much better. Its not so much that the people are bad (because they aren't), its just that I get bored. I don't like sitting in front of Auto CAD every day and having to stay quiet. Theres no fun when all of your co-workers are elderly, or middle aged. Having my Dad there doesn't help either. He's all the way on the other side of the building, so I can't really mess with him like I normally would. I need to find a video game job fast.

Fate can be cruel, but more oftentimes it is kind....you just need the patience to notice the difference.
