Found what I really hope is a perfect job listing for me. It deals in payroll and employee management with a well known but very little advertised position so I might have a chance. My qualifications match literally everything in the job description. I would be more or less running the place's finances (or the right hand of the CPA who does), and I love that idea. It also combines my years of dealing with employee relations, legal compliance, and just god everything.

PLease make this work man.

My father's a fairly senior CPA, and he says at that level it's good pay for good hours, so hopefully it'll be that kind of deal for you as well.

Good luck Truean, I hope it works out!  You sure as hell deserve it.

As always please do not quote, thank you.

Thank you, here's hoping. It's not the most senior financial position they have but I don't care at all. I'm also not a CPA and this position doesn't require one. That said, who better for "legal compliance" than a freaking lawyer? [fingers crossed]

P.S. One of the corrupt as all get out people who made my life a living hell is going to be sentenced to between 10 and 12 1/2 years in jail in the next couple months. Don't wanna jinx it because he could pull / backtrack on the guilty plea he entered but just wow. Some completely insane junk I'll never be comfortable talking about when the damn plea deal is a decade....

Wait, people can back out of a guilty plea?

Anyway, I'm happy because I made a campaign contribution! It wasn't a big amount, but grass roots are sturdier than they look.

Listening through the DFO soundtrack again. It's almost sinful that an MMO has music this good ;_;

Also yeah, fight on true. May you catch breaks and they not be someone's bones, heh.

I quite like my new avatar.
Every post I make feels like it's brimming over with wisdom, like I'm pointing a gnarled, greenish finger at the masses and proclaiming the harsh truths they've tried to ignore, then throwing back my head and cackling before beating a retreat back into my cave under a barrage of stones.

Or something. That's just the feeling it gives me.

I got a new computer, its quite sexy. No longer do I play just about every game on its lowest graphics! Far greater graphics I do enjoy!

Or you could get Classic Shell and have your taskbar, title bar, and start menu all automatically change hue to complement your wallpaper. Here's three samples. I think it does a bang-up job, personally.
