Avoid unchallenging
occupations - they will waste
your great talents.

sean dreilinger: i guess that also makes her entry in the company's “funny hat” contest somewhat prophetic:

“I got screwed by ACUMED” - rachel - _MG_4021

her funny-hat creation for this orthopaedic device company (e.g. they make screws for orthopedic surgeons to use) was embroidered: “i got screwed by acumed… and i'd do it again!”
miss.love: ha ha ha, that's such a cool hat, maybe i should wear it on my last day!
poppa chips: hilarious (both the fortune and the hat).

Oh -- and Happy [un]Birthday, Sean!
noromdiam: That's Funny! Is Rachel starting a new job somewhere?

The hat reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw at Comic-Con:


Happy birthday, Sean!
sean dreilinger: hi iwei, thanks for the kind birthday wishes. rachel has to choose her own adventure, stay tuned. nice bumper sticker!
Neeta Lind: Wow.
