Chapter Five

Aug 12, 2009 22:49

Alright you fucking pigs. Look, I hate to ask nicely but I need a bit of help.

I've got to get myself a job, right? And saying I'm a doctor of journalism without being able to show the right paperwork isn't really helpful. So I've proposed something to all of my possible future employers. If I can show them that I can write a piece of shit ( Read more... )

Mr. Stark is not available for interview at this time.

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:11:02 UTC

And you are?

behisgirlfriday August 13 2009, 03:12:18 UTC

Pepper Potts. His secretary.

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:13:47 UTC

Ah! Of course you are. Could you be a dear and let Mr. Stark know I'd really like to talk to him?

I think I could have my secretary pencil you in.

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:21:29 UTC

Aha! Tony Stark himself.

What a pal. When can I expect to see you?

liverletdie August 13 2009, 03:24:17 UTC

Do you have an office, or should I be the one inviting you to mine?

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:26:00 UTC

I've got a shitty apartment and a convertible. So take your choice.
I'd be willing to write up a resume so that you don't think I'm a complete tool, but like everyone else here, I have no way of proving any of it.

Any hot-shots that will give me the time of day, really.

So, you're looking for a job in journalism, too?

Re: voice take_theride August 13 2009, 03:23:39 UTC

A job in journalism. I am a fucking journalist. A doctor of fucking journalism. I've worked for TIME, Sports Illustrated, and Rolling Stone... I just have no way to prove that, here.

Would you be willing to help someone who's not that experienced? Just to learn! Please?

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:32:23 UTC

Oh fuck me.

Hm. I might be able to use an assistant, but only once I have the job and have the money to pay one. Would you be interested in that?

I'm fairly sure most of them weren't virgins. You could probably make more money by tipping the press off, actually.

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:24:36 UTC

Like I give a shit.

And thanks, but I'd rather write about it myself.

easytochop August 13 2009, 03:25:12 UTC

Suit yourself.

take_theride August 13 2009, 03:33:08 UTC

Thanks anyway, darling.
