The New Job

Pros

1.Almost all the people who work with me went out of their way to be friendly, introduce themselves, ask me about myself, offer advice, etc.
2.Decent pay
3.With the promise of decentlier pay the longer I work there and also quarterly bonuses
4.Absolutely no customer service
5.Holy dang. World's most craziest fancy-pants lunchroom. 5 microwaves!! A dishwasher! Black shiny obsidian-like floors much as one might find in a chi-chi club or the Dark Lord's bathroom!

Cons
1.Smells like chemicals
2.Makes my shoulders ache with the ache of a thousand, um, old ladies
3.Starts far too early in the morning
4.I'm kind of bad at it, though hopefully that will change.

Okay. So as of today it's still looking pretty good. Now for tomorrow...

Seriously. You should totally employ me.

Dear people who are hiring for jobs that involve creative thinking, very very short hours yet a fairly high wage to compensate, little in the way of talking to mean people, tidying things into neat little piles, and maybe making attractive and funky birthday cards:

Well, actually, I've written so many cover letters in the past couple days that now I can't be bothered to prove to you that I would be good at your job. Can you just take my word for it? My resume looks like a piece of trash, but I swear I'd make a good employee.

Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
Tuna, Esq.
