What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

[Ack]

I'm pretty sure at dunkin donuts if you just show up for your shift and stay off your phone, they'd be happy.

Duck Donuts.

Of course I assumed it was autocorrect. Weird name gor a donut shop.

My short horror story on Reddit was temporarily removed until I fix some asinine issue with the fact that at least one paragraph had over 350 words.

?!?!?!?

I knew I should have published it on DeviantArt. Or Wattpad. Reddit was clearly NIT designed for literature.

Duck Donuts.

Duck Donuts is heavenly. I took a Pilgrimage to the original Duck Donuts in Duck, North Carolina. I got there at dawn, but there was already a line. They fixed up those Donuts fresh - the way all Donuts ought to be. Darn tastiest Donut I ever had. The franchise is starting to pop up all over the southeast United States now. There’s one in Fredericksburg, Virginia - not too far from me.

"The series is known for its repeated depiction of sexual fantasies involving men abducting and physically and sexually brutalizing women, who grow to enjoy their submissive state."

That sounds nice.

Darn tastiest Donut I ever had.

Tell me about it.

After not getting the first job teaching English in Japan that I was aiming for, I've started applying for a couple others.

If you missed out on JET, don't go with an eikaiwa. It's not worth it. JET may not sound ideal, but it is 100% the best gig for getting into the country as a teacher. There are a couple other options, but they take a little more legwork to find.

I don't know what compels me to listen to people sometimes: 'Those captures are just repeats of the ones that followed--.' Deep down, I knew that probably wasn't true, and lo, I could be moderately screwed for listening. To that person, I now say, "No, it is not the same thing, with an unmatched load, to measure a transmission line at the source, versus other points on that transmission line. Furthermore, it is not the same thing to measure a transmission anywhere on the line, with any load, with a matched source impedance, versus an unmatched source impedance." I am so upset with myself right now. I just hope they weren't already discarded, I guess.

The two that I'm looking at right now are English Club and INTERAC. INTERAC seems to largely be JET with a more heavy rural presence and worse benefits while English Club (odd name aside) seems to be being part of a tourism agency. I've heard too many horror stories of what can go wrong if you just pick any ol' company to go with, so if neither of these work out I'm just waiting until next year to apply for stuff. I'm not on any terrifying countdown timer or anything for it, I'd just rather do it sooner than later.

[Ack]

Partridge, are you only interested in Japan or getting teaching experience in East Asia in general? My brother used to teach in South Korea and now teaches at a university in China.
