Do you have a spare bed?
I have a spot on a slow shrimp boat heading that way.
When I got to the office today, a woman asked me if I'd attended any "victory parties." She assumed I was happy with the results of the election. She was puzzled when I was not.
You need a new job.
Indeed.
I thought I might have a chance of actually getting one had the election proceeded as I expected. I am not confident that we'll see adequate economic recovery in the next few years for me to find anything.
Did you have a political appointment in the works?
