By the Way

Speaking of disaster areas (not that they’re even comparable), but I haven’t heard about the job yet and I’m out of money - as in, can’t buy food, can’t fill up the tank once I use what’s left.
And I really hate feeling like a mooch, but there it is. I’m flat broke. If you can help, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks.
UPDATE: Let me amend this. I just got the offer letter and they want me to start this Thursday. Again, I don’t have cash for gas, train fare, lunch, etc. so anything you can do to help would be great.

Hope this job works out for you.
This one will. I’ll be an assistant to a political consultant, and the people who work there are really nice.
Good on you, Susie.
My non-check should reach you very soon if you haven’t already gotten it. (Hey, I’m a crazy wild-eyed anarchist — I send folding money through the mail.)
I hope that this is the job that really works out perfectly.
But be careful not to overwhelm the higher-ups with your skills and talents — you’re probably overqualified for this, and it may take them a little while to realize that they can give you very significant responsibilites.
I can’t wait to hear your reports about life in the workplace.
Comments on the new look of the site, since I don’t see any other place to post them –
I generally think it’s an improvement.
However some things need a little tweaking, such as the type size on the replies (too small right now.)
I like the clean, open, “designed” look of the main section, and the fact that the comments are ragged right so that there’s no wierd word spacing like before.
Glad to hear that you got a job. Hope it has health benefits.
Health benefits start IMMEDIATELY. I’m so relieved.
I’ll bet you have to wear pantyhose, though…
JJ,
I’ll wear pantyhose for money.
Gee, Melanie, fascinating as it promises to be, I think I’d best not pursue this line of questioning…
“I’ll wear pantyhose for money.”
Some folks will wear them for money.
Others will take them off for money.
That’s what makes this country so great.
