Employment Wanted

Honesty should count for something.

Views from Metro #72

Lately I have been making frequent commutes downtown to attend interviews. Below is a list of some of the unusual things I have seen:

A watch which verbalizes the time. You press a button, and your watch mechanically says, "nine forty-seven."

A man in a yellow felt beret reading the "Basic Spanish Dictionary."

Continuing with the yellow theme, a woman in a yellow sweat suit being complemented on her outfit by a woman in a gray sweat suit. Yellow must be this seasons new color.

And yellow again, a man who was kicked off the bus after refusing to pick up his banana peel from the bus floor.

A woman kicked of the bus after repeating a long drawn out, "Oh my f#@*ing God" at least a hundred times in a five minute span. She was chemically altered.

Thesis Disclaimer

My life is quickly reaching a point of instability, the dynamism pushing the theoretical threshold. I am preparing to defend my thesis in June. Oh the pain. Entertaining job offers and trying to resolve my first career choice completes this divine comedy. No pressure here. Despite the overly dramatic epic I describe, this volatile stage in my life is equally exciting, scary, and uncertain. I am loving every moment of it. That being said, don't expect to see or hear from me in the next weeks. I must prepare for my academic hibernation.
