h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I am a bit short of w*rk these days and now I ran into the most luring job offer. Too bad it's in a completely wrong place. I am sure I'd be good. I can even speak with weird accent.

go for it, girl

go for it! commuting will be a bit hard .. 2000 kms on a broomstick is .. not easy

.. 50.000 including living quarters .. rather basic possibly .. I'm not sure the cave would have a shower?

They might even like you to bring a goat!

That's the tricky part of the deal.

But according to Forbes there's no chance to get any job here. Not likely anyway.

they say things will get better - in a few years

things *will* be better .. in a few months

it'd better

After all that's just statistics.

not if you can see the statistics in your wallet

Tell me about it.

I was only practicing positive thinking. Doesn't really work.

ah yes, obviously now we'll approach this scientifically and do a proper experiment

all of you will start spending money like and we'll verify the results in two months from now. Hati and I will be the reference group to be able to exclude effects of any outside interference and we'll not join in the crazed spending

I am on a spending wave right now. Could we start next week?

makes sense to me

ah .. well .. I guess

Good.

well .. there's quite a few rolling by

I don't spent all that money at least I hope I won't for the rest of the month

I haven't paid the bills yet, you see.

ah .. right .. .. well, maybe some of them .. oh, friends had this theory that once you stop paying bills they'll stop sending them

that may be right.. in a way

i never pay any bills

well, hardly ever

i have a bank for that
