Somewhere, a bitey Fuecoco is smiling and does not care why. But he is smiling, so we are all happy for him.

I just want my job back...put me in a proud C- elementary school, make me clean toilets all night, give me the minimum wage, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE! I just want a job...I want to do right by people...why is it so hard to be normal... (7/end)

Now I'm trying to collect unemployment, and I gotta do it through TWO STATES because of how I got screwed over. And even then, they're not giving me everything I'm owed! I'm never gonna be able to help support my family if I don't get a job! And getting a job is HARD, man! It's bullroar! (6/7)

I have to get an interview, to be part of a company, that I was already working for, that ruined my life and income. Background check, sure, I'll pee in every cup in every state if you need me to, but you know I'm in the system! This is a JANITOR job! Cleaning toilets! Mopping! Caring! (5/7)

Yes, I contacted HR (a few days after I should've but let me grieve, goddamn) and after a false start, I got an actual person to talk to. And I sent out applications to all their locations in the nearby county they listed, and I have to wait for an interview with one of them. (4/7)

My boss screwed up. I was getting transferred, but the week I was getting transferred over, the contract expired. That job was dead. I'd upended my life...for nothing. I didn't mess up. Everybody else did. Hell, I wasn't even taken out of the company properly! Just left to die on a vine. (3/7)

Sometimes, there are people out there that feel like family. And...those friends can feel more like family than your real family. I moved to St. Augustine, Florida to be with them. I even relocated my job cleaning schools to go clean a state college. Boss signed off and everything.
Except no. (2/7)

Further salty thoughts.

We are truly safe from the demons then.

I was wondering why I smelled bread being baked.
Dis gonna be good.

Pamela Adlon, if you're out there, reading posts from nobodies like me...I want to thank you for being Bobby's VA. Loved your work as Spinelli, and ESPECIALLY as Pajama Sam...but you still bring this air to Bobby Hill after all these years. It makes me feel happy I rooted for him. God bless. (6/end)

Bobby Hill's respected, he's nice, he still has his friend circle and connects with them...but he has confidence. He toned down the showmanship and mellowed out, but he still goes for broke on stuff. He can still do stuff with his dad...it's awesome. Hell, he and Connie are still friends! (5/???)

Bobby Hill was just sort of a dopey kid who bumbled around in life before stumbling onto something he could connect with his dad on: cooking food. And he still respects his family, comes to visit, connects when he can...but he runs a friggin' restaurant. He has Hank's work ethic. Badass. (4/???)

I didn't rewatch KotH before watching this, just a few Johnny2Cellos videos to refresh things. Hank is relatable, the friends are still nutty, and Peggy still reminds me of the bad parts of my mom.
...jerk...
But then there's Bobby. Bobby is...new. Different. In a good way. (3/???)
