“Let’s say a complex unfixable issue in Section 36 will likely cause us all to die,” I says. “I would immediately say ’You know what Section 36? You guys are assholes!’”
I pause for a second, looking out the window for dramatic effect. “-and then Section 36 fixes the issue. Disaster is averted, and we all survive.”
There’s an uncomfortable silence.
Crap.
-I thought I was doing really well there.
“See,” I continue -hoping to recapture my previous inertia and maybe rescue the effort. “That’s the kind of job I need: a 'sexy, take chargy, top-secrety, lot's of cashy company jetty'-type job. And that’s why I think I am perfect for your company.”

Yes, section 36 was good while it lasted, then came 38 special. Where did they go anyway? I'll bet the BB aliens took them for experiments. Been there done that. Not fun!!
Did you just see that giant white orb??
.... a baby bottle?
"ohhh"
Dam sectional 36 I reckon.
You seriously underestimate the intensity, viciousness, and cut-throated nature of the baby bottle industry. The guys in the nipple department are especially offended.
We await your timely apology.
