I think I have realized a very valuable lesson when learning to cook.

That it's probably better not to jump right into baking because when you think that's probably easier than cooking? It's actually not. Really. It's not. Would anyone who has absolutely no sense of taste like some... flat cupcakes?

Poor Pope. You aren't supposed to give something up for Lent until Wednesday.

My source material is a bit of a problem for me. I lack self control to We came back to the air and Is this our future? Is it set in stone? Is there a way to prevent things?

It's only been 3 or 4 weeks since I've been working and it already feels like a decade. Basically, working there is all of the following things:

- Children running around, knocking shit over and their parents not giving a damn to tell them to stop, but angrily telling an employee to screw off if they ask the kid not to do something nicely.
- Customers bitching about having to wait 5 minutes in line never mind that they have probably waited in line without bitching at the doctor's or in banks or in shopping malls or long lines to the bathrooms. And yet.. pharmacies are apparently where they should get their stuff within 5 seconds.
- People calling 2 minutes to closing and asking that we keep the store open because they need to drop off 3 prescriptions right away.
- Why does that cost 2.99? The sign says it's 2.89. I want it for that price! What? I need a courtesy card? Since when?? I'm not coming back here anymore! (Repeat in about a week when they return to get something else.)
- Kids crying when their parents don't get them that candy bar that they want, and screaming about how they hate them and wish they would die. Oh, yes, because that would get what you want, right away.

Repeat daily.

On the bright side... I get my money for cigs. Life is good.

You would think New York would be enough to keep my attention at least somewhat. But after my extended stay upstate, I'm honestly just itching to get away. I thought training for SHIELD would keep me occupied, but how was I supposed to know there were psych tests involved?

So I'm more than a little morally relative with delusions of grandeur. That doesn't affect how well I can handle myself in the heat of the moment.

So. Right then. I'm bored.

And, to that end, I need a job.

Problem is, I'm sort of a ghost. Well, scratch that. I'm completely a ghost.

Which means nobody can really touch me. But I can pick things up, so that's a problem.

But I still can't exactly just go out and apply at the local Tesco...or whatever you have in place of a Tesco here.

Point is, would anyone want to hire a ghost? I'm a good worker. And I have people skills. Unlike the boys And I'm good with bars. Just answer here if you're interested. Maybe?

I don't think I'm ever going to figure out these ... farenheit to celcius conversions. Whenever I see something like it's 37 or 42º degrees I expect people to be outside complaining about the heat and dousing themselves in ice cream. But it's not that at all, is it?

Not that I can feel the difference, anyway. It's all the same to me.

Hello?

Can anyone see this? I'm not really sure how this works. On account of me being dead and all. But those SHIELD blokes could see me, so

My name's Alex. I'm looking for Hal and Tom.

Hello, everyone. My name is Virginia Potts. I'm better known as (and answer to) the moniker that Tony gave me many years ago, Pepper.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome you all to the Refugee Network. Tony Stark - as well as many others - created the network so you would have a safe space to talk without the prying eyes of the media. I'd like to give them a warm thank you for their hard work.

Some of you have been here for a while, and as of today, the Tesseract has given us more refugees than it has in the previous five months, and it's still going. I'd like to take a moment to thank the hard-working men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D. for their diligence and perseverance. Without their quick thinking when refugees began to appear, this would have been nearly impossible for any one of us to handle.

And on that note, Director Fury has asked me to pass along the message that they are in dire need for Administrative Staff to help with processing. Anyone who is interested can pass on a note to your Housing Assistant.

Speaking of, there should be one Housing Assistant per two floors (and in one case, three floors). Should you require any assistance, they should be able to help you. Potts Tower is not a new building, but we have gutted it, given it an ARC reactor for clean energy, a full service gym in the basement, an outdoor patio and pool area, and an entertainment area. We plan to utilize all of these areas in the upcoming holiday season in the hopes that it helps alleviate some of the melancholy of being without your families.

Once again, welcome to the Refugee Network and Potts Tower, and I look forward to getting to know you.

-Virginia Potts
