xp_changelingI honestly can't believe I'm saying this but the Patriots lost last night and now I'm full of positive feelings that have no business being anywhere near me.
Clea, the kid from Sefton's magic class gave me the full court press a couple of days ago for an internship at the Centre. Just reception, filing, etc. Did my best to warn her off - dangerous job, sexually harassed her, full deal to try and make her go and get a job at the local real estate office like a normal kid. Unfortunately, she's apparently cursed by the Dark One or something and didn't seem that impressed.
But, the reality is that unless the rest of you are going to start making regular runs to the stationary store or manning the phones, not having someone at the front is both an operational and security concern. I'll spare you the full stories from back in the days at the CIA before any of your grandparents were even born, but the support staff basically ran the place, designed to keep the intelligence idiot savants locked in with all they needed to focus on the information coming up, grimly understanding that working a mimeograph was beyond their specialized skills.
So, it's up to you lot, but unless anyone has a better idea, I say we gave the kid a chance.
