Goddamn it!

The Container Store just called.

I didn't get the job.

I wish to HELL I could get drunk without killing myself.

Suck. I'm sorry.

Can you take any other drugs safely to alter your consciousness? Got some Vicodin here...

Mot with my screwed-up system. Besides, I want to be drunk. I want to sing along with the TV, smell of alchohol, and wake up with a hang over.

I did have a wee double shot o'Jack Daniels, which helped a little.

Did they say why?

I asked what the determining factor was, and it boiled down to hundreds of candidates for 80 positions. He said that I was qualified, but my lack of recent retail experience tipped the scales.

My last in-store retail experience was in 1990.

frag. Did they give a reason?

Well, that settles it. You're going to OryCon, if you're willing to accept my invitation to handle the costs. Dammit, you deserve it, and, thanks to Uncle Sugar's repeated mobilizations, I've got the capital to ensure that you can go to OryCon and enjoy yourself. You don't even have to worry about transportation, as I can easily swing through San Jose en route.

*virtual arm-twisting ensues*

I'm so sorry. I wish there was something I could say or do to make this better/easier.

Gessi

Frack. That seriously sucks. I'm so sorry, babe.

Well, damn.

Let me check with the other So Cal Lemmings and see what we can do for the Great Lemming Shoot Out.

Damn. I wish I could say/do more. Just, damn.
