"There isn't a music teacher here, which makes it all the more perfect for me to swoop in and fill that position! I'm not sure how many people will need an interior decorator, which is the other job I've been assigned. I mean, interior decorating sounds interesting and I picked up a couple books on the subject, bur I don't think too many would be interested in hiring somebody to redesign their homes. And those who do, it's more likely that they'll need my services only once and after they're satisfied, they wouldn't need me again. It's not really a sustainable occupation in this village economy."
