New Job
I have a new job. It starts Thursday March 8th. Back to the 8:30-5 schedule. It is a temporary job until the end of the school year in June. I review papers for a college program checking for content, application and feasibility(does it make sense and is it possible). So, I get to use my organizational skills. I looked for something where I did not have to deal with mentally ill people. I did that for 26 years and I wanted to move on from that. 
Of course there are always a few dysfunctional co-workers and hopefully not a dysfunctional supervisor this time. I sit in a large room with about 75 other people who do (kind of) the same thing. Everything is on the computer…I don’t get to see the actual paper. So, Blips’ car repairs and a couple trips this year will get paid for. woooo hoooo Life is good (smiling here). I did not get the above job. I got the job on the right.

That is great! I am happy you get to do all that traveling! That is why we work! To be able to live the life we want! That is such a “typical” American office!

you better take the above job, because that’s free shit for the garden and your tulips will love that.

Yep typical americam office, I wouldn’t see the diffrence between you work and blips’ work.
One day you will think of the memories of playing in the garden with your granddaughters in stead of dreaming of it
