No more HR confessional introspective journeys into the past to recount shames, alleged triumphs, accomplishments and disappointments.
No more cold comfort rejection letters, unreturned phone calls, and lectures on how valuable the fucker's goddamn time is.
No more cheap Vodka instead of sweet, sweet Bourbon.
A job, bennies, and a Republic, madam, if you can keep it.
Drinks on me, you thoughtful, kind, wonderfully understanding group of cuntlickers; but only top-shelf, high end shit, 'cause that's how I rolls now, suckas.
Hired, at last!

WOO HOO!
Great to hear Smatter, CONGRATULATIONS!
Ummm, I WILL be a mooch and take a R&C, with the most expensive cheap rum you deem appropriate!
Cheers!

Re: Hired, at last!
Know from whence you're comin'. Did a spot of the unemployed meself a few years ago - about 13 months. Glorious as it was to be freed from the soulless minions of hell known to the public as KPMG, and I was really sick at the time so the timing was perfect - it was nice to start gettin' a paycheck again. Even though, apparently, stultifying boredom is part of my current job description, the checks clear, which enables me to purchase an endless river of hooch for myself and those I care most about. Which is what I'm sure you're doing with your newfound wealth.
I'll buy us both a drink! Congratulations! Now raise that glass and breathe that sigh of relief you've been lookin' forward to all during your worrisome period of unemployment! Slainte!
And now, immediately commence lookin' forward to Friday.

Re: Hired, at last!
Hell yes. Heartily agreed on all counts... and Smatter, I'll have what the Two Hearted is having. :D (I hate to mooch, usually, but I'm down to the pennies in my change jar... so... eh, needs must when the devil drives, whatever.)Two Hearted wrote:WOO HOO!

Re: Hired, at last!
I'm 6 mo's. out from a 20yr. Wall St stint of sweet cash flow. I know where you are coming from. I had the advantage of knowing over a year in advance of my fate. (Anyone remember Bear Stearns). Today I'm free from those fucking assholes and I am looking to work as a blue collar guy to be free of the fascist crap that has enveloped the financial realm. Hope you have not entered there. You will be cannon fodder, believe me. I would rather drink dirty water and sleep in a hollow log than go back to those butt fucking pirates.We are all going to pay for them thru taxes up the ass. I took my money and bought a shit load of gold and will hold out somehow. I suggest you do the same with any spare cash after the whiskey of course. That comes first!

Re: Hired, at last!
Congrats! This rounds on me, then you get the next two and a round to be named at a later time.
Still got my same crappy job (knock on cheap ikea desk fake wood).
Nice to know a drunk can catch a break.

May those who love us, love us
and those who don't love us, may god turn their hearts
and if he can't turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles
so we'll know 'em by their limping!
