Re: Never mind that
[quote name="Casual bystander"][quote name="Zsenicorpse"][quote name="up with pod people"]What colour chinese suit did you get your man?[/quote] I got him the POVERTY COLORED CHINESE SUIT. It turns out that when you quit your nice union job and do SHIT WORK for SHIT HOURS, and your fella is taking a siesta for a couple-three months, you turn POOR. Zseni had never been poor before; it was a shock. It was such a huge shock Zseni had a moment of Ape Clarity and promptly swallowed everything Zseni had EVER HAD resembling pride and got a bootlicking, The-Man's-poo-sniffing, nice-clothes-and-adult-contemporary-radio-CONSTANTLY-ON office job in logistics, the only field in which she'd ever managed to develop a qualification. OH YEAH AND SHE WENT BACK TO SCHOOL TO GET A <b>FUCKING ACCOUNTING DEGREE TO QUALIFY TO TAKE THE <i>FUCKING</i> CPA EXAM</b>. So now Zseni handles CANADIAN customs and rail billing for a small, but profitable, intermodal shipping company. I got to use my fucking high school French after all! As it turns out, Zseni was sheltered! And the real world is a fucking FAGGOT WHO FUCKS YOU IN THE ASS while you're asleep! Zseni will <i>never forget</i> this indignity done to her and on a daily basis must pass it off to herself as some kind of small but brilliant step in an overall strategy to do something <i>terribly</i> important. The funny thing is that of everything I have lost in the last six or seven months - which includes two cars and all my self respect! - the thing I miss the most is the ability to choose what music I'm listening to all the time.
