Excellent. Not a word wasted. Right up there with Brautigan’s ‘The Scarlatti Tilt’.

Gosh.
I want to work in your office. All we get is people photocopying pictures of their bottoms.

That is a gorgeous piece of writing, delicate but strong, beautiful. I think my favourite I have read here since I began.

Dang. All those long hours of community service and college wasted. I bet I’d get the ol’, “You’re just over-qualified/it’s not you, it’s me” bologna. Sigh. Did I mention “blah” already?

Jim: Aw, cheers Jim. :)
AUW: Bottom copies are fun, too, I think that’s a different want ad, though.
Paul: Hello and welcome, Paul, and thank you for the lovely comment, though I am afraid I will probably only disappoint from here on out.
2ndhandsoul: Kindly take your self-pity to your own blog, we have enough here with my own. ;)

Oh, muteness! Yes, they must be mute. Mute rhymes with cute. It’s no coincidence.

I’d like one of those too. Angry women looking daggers at you over the photocopier is not half so much fun.

Miaow :)

Clarissa: You rhyme with cute. In my mind.
Z: Mmm, I’ll let you know whether the ad proves successful.
Fellini: *scratch behind the ears*

If my local newspaper had personals like these I might actually read them.
