You know, I never thought of that, thanks. I may do that if it comes to it.

When I worked at B&N, one of my fellow cashiers had a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. Everyday, someone else would ask her "What the heck are you doing here???" and the answer was always the same. "I can't find a job anywhere else."
