OBVIOSLY you have never heard of the Peoples Republic of China
From the font of wisdom (except 42 is incorrect): “Look property is theft, right? Therefore theft is property. Therefore this ship is mine, okay?”

It was wonderful. I've never felt so good starting a new job, and I've never had a job I can feel good about doing. It involves a mountain range of paperwork, but getting to help people instead of clog their arteries and not just being another cog for mindless machine of job, it's such a wonderful feeling.
It does feel really weird though retiring the hammer and scythe as my tools of trade though. Having an office, having clients, and having to dress up better than t-shirt and jeans, being a part of that professional level, high-dollar latte sipping crowd, it's definitely a very new world for me. And the level of autonomy I enjoy, oh my god it's so nice.
Highlight of the day was one client who had a red-skinned, devil-horned Trump pinata holding a pitchfork.
At one point it the day, the thought even crossed my mind that this isn't work. I don't even have to wear a name tag/badge (technically, I can't even wear it outside the office due to privacy concerns). Sure, I'll taking tons of notes and doing lots of paperwork, but work? Nah. If you can say being put on hold isn't so bad because you're being paid for it and fulfilling required "billable hours" by doing nothing more than listening to "hold music," you don't work. Not sure what to call is as far as a single-word verb goes, but it ain't work.

Looks like I'm shadowing groups tomorrow for a few hours, then back on the field for a few hours. And I don't have to be in until 9, rather than 8. And it looks like I may potentially have a short day Thursday, and Friday/LARP day I actually don't know how long I'll be working, so hopefully I'll be able to make it to the game early enough to get a warm bed.
And having a job where I don't have that soul crushing feeling that my abilities aren't going to waste, it's so nice.

Then yes, it is obvious, to those who can count to 2, there are 2 polar bears in the picture..... therefore it is bi-polar

No, no i didn't...... I can think of at least 4 possibilities... and when dealing with @Revoltingest you must get clarifications because there is no way of knowing what his pickled Scottish brain is thinking..... he could be thinking I meant two polar bears saying bye..... you see... his spellin' and grammerating ain't so good

You know that might be an insult..... but then again you invited me on a cruise....hmmm...which could be somewhat lascivious..... or just an innocent friendly gesture...... ur possibly something more insidious...once you get into international waters......but either way I must say no.... I hate cruises....

That's because it is beneath us you confused, uniformed Scot
Just as humans tell dumb blond jokes,
Raccoons, squirrels, & weasels tell bear jokes.
