    I would never breath fire on you personally Liiya

    But I see that you have a nice garden

    it would be a shame if those chrysanthemums had an... accident

    "Sure. [explains rates] What kind of time frame are we talking about here?"

    "Two days."

    "..."

    How long would be considered a normal time frame? I guess it depends on the novel size. Just wondering.

    I hate chrysanthemums, you can roll on them and toast them all you like.

    Stay away from the passion flowers though.

    That'll teach me to rely on my pathetic minions

    Can't even find out what a florist's favourite flowers are

    What do you do?

    Dispatcher for an appliance repair company.

    Answer phones, schedule customers, tell the technicians where to go and when, set up the schedule for the next day. When it gets below freezing, refrigerators don't work as hard, break down less, we get slow.

    I'd say about an hour for 3,000 words, if you're being thorough

    So this guy was expecting 33 solid hours of work in a 48 hour block D:

    Not a bright bunny and we had to turn him down


    And Solar, the idea of a bunch of tiny dragons ravaging unwanted plants and chewing them victoriously fills me with glee

    Having two jobs sucks, only one day per week offffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuck.

    Yay being a cashier and teaching computers to the elderly. At least I only have like 3 hours of work on Friday, but fuck the amount of material you need to prepare, and then you just gotta hope it wasn't in vain because if enough people don't show up that class is cancelled!
    I seriously need to quit the cashier job, but I gotta find something else to do instead of that then.
