    It is the kind of work I do best:

    A very busy lady who works at home has an office full of disorganised paperwork, missing cheques and muddled-up bank statements

    My job shall be to sort it all out, and do data entry, and then if I fulfill expectations she has a lot of similarly busy and disorganised friends

    But it's going to be so odd with me working while Mori stays at home

    Awesome. I guess. (it sounds horrible, but if you're good at it, well..!)


    I'm sure Mori will feel suitably guilty and un-manly.

    I actually really like that kind of thing!

    I almost rubbed my hands with glee when I saw her messy office

    Her house is beautiful and she and her partner and kids seem like really lovely people

    The thing is I'm still not legal to work, y'see

    It's a little ironic that it's easier for me to find illegal work while Mori can't find legal work

    I'm sure its probably fine. A few lines in your accent, and any troubles will just melt away.

    It should be piss easy for you to find decent employment when you are legal, though I'm surprised you're not now you're married. Is there like a minimum period or something?

    The one thing that galled me about that movie

    The robin is an American robin, not a British robin

    That robin would never actually be in London

    That is the oddest thing in the world to be bothered by in that movie.

    Then again, Dick Van Dyke's attempt at a British accent always set my teeth on edge.

    I know!

    And the mockney didn't bother me, probably because as a kid I had no concept of what a cockney accent was anyway

    But damn it, I knew what a robin was

    Of all my jobs I think I've been late to work twice

    and once it was because I forgot there was a bike race going through my city so I was sitting at an intersection for 25+ minutes waiting for all the bikes to pass

    I've had a lot of jobs where the hours are flexible enough that if you're going to be late, you should probably call in sick.

    I always call in if I even think I'm going to be late.

    One time I called in late and still managed to come in on time 8-)

    And then they laid me off three weeks later

    my government job now and the government internship i had ages back basically lets a dude come in whenever he wants, as long as you put in your 8 hours for the day. government jobs are the best.

    Fortunately my boss found it hilarious

    Also, he was very cool. Ours was a small office and based on trust. He didn't mind if people were late so long as the hours were made up.

    One guy there turned up an hour or so late every day, but he took a lot of work home so no one minded.

    Of course, as I was answering the phones I was pretty much the only employee who couldn't be late

    The US benefits are alright for federal but it depends where you live to some extent depending on what health care plans are available in your area and what doctors/hospitals accept them.

    If you started working prior to 1983 then a government pension is great stuff

    If you started working after that you should probably just smoke so you wont need to retire, or alternatively have great faith in the stock markets.

    It's the same general principle as the Russian army. Just send wave after wave of men at the problem until eventually one of them manages to get shit done. Law of averages.
