002. Employment @ fandomjournal
Work? When would I have time for that? Between running from the cops and researching lycanthropy, I don’t have time for a real job. I survive by stealing what I can but I don’t consider that my job either. The only thing I have that’s close to employment is my research work but that’s more of a matter of life or death. You see, about two years ago I was infected…no, that’s not right. I infected myself with the lycanthrope virus which, looking back now, was the stupidest thing I have ever done. Trying to undo that mistake is my life’s mission right now. Quite different from what I always thought I’d be doing at this point in my life.

At seventeen I should be working at some grocery store making minimum wage and planning for college. Instead, I’m holed up in a rundown motel injecting various poisons in the vain hope that it will save me. Funny where life takes you, huh?

Could be worse though. I could still be locked up.

1. What do you like most about your job?

Since I’ve already mentioned that I don’t have a “job” job, I’m going to keep talking about my research. I like it when I find useful information that actually works.

2. What do you like least about your job?

I hate finding something that sounds like it will work or cure me and then I discover that it doesn’t do shit.

3. What work activity is most challenging for you?

Trying to do my research on the run.

4. What is your favorite work activity?

Reading.

5. What work-related skills are you good at?

Um, being able to work quietly? I don’t know, this doesn’t really apply to what I do. I just research shit. Maybe my note-taking skills are noteworthy?

6. What work-related skills would you like to learn more about?

I dunno, how to work with the public instead of wishing them dead?

7. If you could change anything about yourself, what would it be?

This one’s easy. I wouldn’t be a damn werewolf.

8. When you have a bad day at work, it is usually because…

I had to run off thanks to another werewolf or the cops.

9. When you have leisure time, what do you like to do?

Read. It’s pretty much all I do. I’ll watch t.v. if the motel has one. Anything to drown out my thoughts.

10. What other career(s) are you interested in?

Photography. I still wish I had brought one of my camera’s with me when I ran away from home but that would have been stupid. What would I have taken pictures of? How would I have gotten the film developed? What could have been I guess.

11. Do you take outside lessons or classes of any kind?

No, I haven’t taken anything since I dropped out of highschool.

12. Do you have any pets?

No, thank god.

13. What is your favorite:

• Food - Pizza
• Place - London
• Sport – I hate sports
• Indoor Activity – Reading; Yes I’m repetetive

14. Who is your favorite:

• Friend - Sam
• Relative - Ginger
• Movie Star – I don’t really have one.
• Hero/Heroine - Agnes Macphail; You were probably expected something lame like Superman or Spiderman but I think real people make better heroes since they do it without superpowered advantages.

15. Complete this sentence:
Happiness is… a delusion. No one’s really happy.
