Dear Poor Lucky Me,
I want a new job but fear that the problem is that I don’t want any job. Could this be? I’m pretty smart and normal.
Worried,
Very Worried
Dear Very Worried,
I get this question often, and want to assure you that there is nothing wrong with you. I do believe you are both smart and normal…and in fact you are just too good for the work-a-day world. Dear Very Worried, doth a bird not cry when it’s wings are clipped, when it is sentenced to a life of droll flightlessness? That bird, my friend, is like you.
You don’t have to worry though, this is America! You don’t have to work, there are tons of other things you can do. You could go on welfare, or become a religious devotee, you could get on a reality tv show, you could beg. Really you can do anything you want in this grand country. In fact I recently saw two homeless people of unidentifiable gender making out in the park near my home. Romance might be on the horizon for you! This is very exciting.
Best to you,
Poor Lucky Me
