[Have a mopey-looking ginger, Duckies. She's only wearing an undershirt, from the shot the camera gives, like she got too depressed to finish undressing from her professional, ever-layered clothing and just opened up her laptop instead. Which is exactly what happened.]

You know, I said two years I wasn't gonna temp anymore and I still haven't ( Read more... )

I've been doing the same job as soon as I was old enough. Doesn't mean I can bear it, but it's all I've got.

forevernoble February 5 2011, 20:15:24 UTC

That's a shame. [Oh, wow. Your story was enough to make her share the moping to encompass your misfortune as well. Aren't you lucky?] There's really nothing else?

Not unless the Capitol have a sudden change of plans. No, I live in the mining district and I'm eighteen. That means work in the mines. Either that or starvation. Or being shot for resisting.

Damn, I'm sorry. When are you from?

I've never had any job other than my current position.

forevernoble February 5 2011, 20:43:54 UTC

Oh? But do you like it?

potato_bastard February 5 2011, 22:41:34 UTC

I... I don't know.

forevernoble February 5 2011, 23:05:05 UTC

How do you not know?

A day, back when I was sixteen.

[video] forevernoble February 5 2011, 23:06:07 UTC

A day, huh? Now I want to get into hours. You first.

[video] lt_cmmdr_scott February 5 2011, 23:34:04 UTC

Just not quite cut out for workin' in a shop, me. Walked out, end o' the first day.

[video] forevernoble February 5 2011, 23:40:19 UTC

Oh, shops.

I got hired yesterday, told I start Monday, not called in today, but actually bumped into at breakfast and had the manager all "come on in for a moment, would you?" Two hours later, I was knee deep in five years worth of horribly kept transit records. Two and half hours later, I was leaving.

My mum spent most of my life goin' from job to job. Shortest she ever kept one was two hours.

[video] forevernoble February 6 2011, 01:17:54 UTC

I think I only just got her beat, then.

How've you been, Jackie? Good to see you.

[video] lone_defender February 6 2011, 11:08:07 UTC

I'll try not to let her know.

I've been alright. How've you been, temping jobs aside?

[video] forevernoble February 8 2011, 23:07:01 UTC

All right, I suppose. Granted, that takes up most of everything, but... That's life sometimes, innit?

There was a man was badly injured in a car accident, he had the entire left half of his body torn off. They took him to the hospital to be examined. The doctors said he was all right. The nurses said there wasn't much left.

forevernoble February 6 2011, 01:18:46 UTC

[She starts out the story with one hand to her mouth, clearly quietly horrified. But she lets him finished. The horror continues a beat before she gets it and bursts out laughing.]

Oh, oh, that's wonderful, that is.

no_armistice February 6 2011, 01:21:32 UTC

I'm glad you think so.

forevernoble February 6 2011, 01:29:26 UTC

It's horrible, of course. But wonderfully horrible. Something like that.
