employment

It's not just the title of a Kaiser Chiefs album anymore. Seriously, I have a job and that's the real reason for me being here in Greg City, Statestate. I am working at a highly acclaimed soda company, the Metafizz Carbonated Soft Drink Corp. Metafizz is about a lot of things, but fun is certainly part of it. How many times have you been at work and someone asks for a rubber band? Well, it happened to me last week and two of us started looking around like "ok, well they usually fly in this direction, so that's where one should be" as we inspected window sills and other likely landing places. That's what makes Metafizz so great. Or it could be the gallons of free diet soda we drink. They actually buy us water, too. I have never before worked somewhere that actually had a water cooler. Incidentally, for those wondering, I think "I Predict a Riot" is the only song I have ever heard by the aforementioned band.
