So I changed jobs again- now with pie!

Because I am a restless person who likes to run away when things get boring, or alternately, too hard. So yeah, bad me.

Anyway, I'm at that lovely point of quitting where I only have two days left and so have a lot to get caught up on/ pass on; but you know, also I only have two days left, so who cares??


I have nothing else to say, except:

What kind of pie are you making me for Thanksgiving?

What kind of job could I get that just involves pie- pie all the time, all day, every day, no other work but pie?

I'm not making pie. I don't like cooking and I am single and live alone, so my Thanksgiving Day dinner will probably be a frozen one.

For your second question, pie baker?

So you are a restless person? Easily bored? Nothing like me then *cough*

My favourite pie is pecan, although you would love my sister, who is very over-worked, and perked up considerably at the promise of some pie (she specified chicken) from her elder, devoted sister (ie me).

Also - what sort of pie would you like? Cos I would totally bring it to you.

Yay! We are the same. Now that there are two of us we can form a coalition and act all superior to the 'others.'

People who don't change their mind every since six months? Losers!

Please heat up frozen dinner before eating. I will tell you from experience it is harder to eat if you forget. Also, I would trade alone thanksgiving for suffering through the ones with my 'not' families (I spend one with husband's family and the next day with my step-mother's family). I smile, nod, fake headaches through them very well. Know on this day I am jealous of you.

Also... pie baker. Very interesting. Do I need to know how to cook to do this job?

Can I join the coalition? The longest I've ever been at one job is 5 years and 10 months. That was from May '90 until March '96. The closest I ever got to that again wasn't even 3 full years. I've promised my husband to stick this job out for 5 unless I can get another position within the State since I'll keep my "time" if I were to transfer. I'll be vested for a small retirement if I stick it out that long. I have 3 yrs and 11 mos to go.

Oh, and if you'll come visit me for Thanksgiving, I promise to make you pork pie. Hell, it doesn't even have to be Thanksgiving.
