Fortune Cookie Advice

Filed under: Work - Ric @ 7:23 am

What a way to spoil a good buffet lunch. “You will soon have a different job”. How vauge can a tiny piece of paper, with several lucky numbers, be? Is it a new job to add to the existing jobs I already have? If so, my wife and her soon to be hired divorce lawyer, would like to know. Is it a completely new gig without the old ones tagging along? Will it be better or worse that the ones I have now? Is this a fortune or a curse?

…You will soon have a different job…

This small slip of former tree with writing on it is causing me some anxiety. I’ve had new jobs, and pretty much, nine times out of ten, they are the same old job merely with different character names and locations, but the plot remains the same. Sort of like cheap romance novels.

One would think that any product that caused this much grief and uncertainty would have to be regulated by the government, or at least carry a warning label. But to be fair, fortune cookie words are to the brain what Chinese food is to the stomach; thirty minutes afterwards it’s gone, and you are hungry again.
