Subject: Tabitha's New Job
Me and Sara are watching a rerun of Scrubs when we hear Tabitha's phone ring. A couple of minutes later she comes out, looking all excited.
“You get the job?”
“Sure did. This will at least keep me paying my bills.”
“Do they know you go back to school in August?”
“Yeah. I'm going to work part time. I guess If I can't handle that I'll quit.”
“So what are you doing?”
“Answering phones, running to the post office, some filing. That sort of thing.”
“So you're a gopher.”
“I guess you could say that.”
“What kind of company is it?”
“They're a small software company. So hopefully I won't even have much to do.”
“Or they'll constantly be behind and need you to work hard.”
“That's true. They did see rather disorganized when I was there.”
“If they're programmers, they'll probably have you running out to buy cases of Mountain Dew or something.”
“Mountain Dew. That nasty looking yellow color always makes me want to call it Monkey Dew.”
“Monkey Dew? Eww. Well there is a Gristedes right across the street, but hopefully they'll stock their own Dew.”
“So any of them good looking?”
“Not really. One guy, but he's married.”
“Figures. So when do you start?”
“Monday. Diving right in.”
“Should we celebrate or something?”
“Celebrating is what made me broke in the first place. How about we wait until my first paycheck and then celebrate?”
“That works for me. There is nothing like blowing a paycheck on a high quality drunken binge.”
“Did I ever tell you I admire your money saving skills Sara?”
