@$$hole! #45: The Interview (Part 1)

I had been battling for months trying to figure out what job I wanted Susie to have (yes, I'm that far ahead in my writing, just not in my art), and I had it down to two options: a video store so I could make fun of movies, or a coffee shop. I started bouncing ideas off from friends, and ultimately we agreed that Susie is the ultimate emo kids - she BELONGS in a coffee place. But I didn't just want to limit her to coffee, so I made it a coffee shop and cyber cafe.

Then I had another hurtle to overcome: did I even want to show the interview?

I mean, I already went through the interview questions with Trevor, and Susie failed them…how would she react to this situation, get the job, AND be funny about it.

Then it hit me…and you have it here before you! Part two next week!

PS: Having gotten feedback from many readers about how difficult it is to read viner hand MT, I decided to have Susie give a little cough and switch her font to the same that everyone else uses. I hope it's easier to read now.
