Didn't think my first day on the job was going to result in talking down a delivery guy a Chilis during lunch time. I guess Grubhub employees really take their job seriously.

I know some of the people who witnessed it already gave their statement, but a few people left before we could get to them. If you were there, I'd love to talk to you for a few minutes.

Also recommendations where to go for dinner considering I had to skip lunch for obvious reasons.

	It always amazes me what people encounter on a daily basis. It shouldn’t, but it does. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Actually that was pretty tame compared to things back home (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And what sorts of things happen where you’re from? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Where I'm from, there are people who we called Troubled. They had powers or abilities that are often dangerous. Things they don't want. Just recently there was a man whose sweat dried out a person whole. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That seems like a terrible life. Is there no helping them? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 02:57 am UTC (link)
	It's not fun. I've been helping them as best I can, but we're working on stopping them. Apparently in my future we might (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope for everyone’s sake that you do. I know what it’s like to want to help people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 03:21 am UTC (link)
	Thanks. I hope so too. Not much help I am here, but maybe I can learn something that helps (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It can definitely feel very defeating to be here knowing what you’re missing out on back home. In time, I think it gets easier. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 03:33 am UTC (link)
	How long have you been here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	granger_danger 2020-01-06 03:39 am UTC (link)
	Nearly three years. I still have my days, but it’s definitely better than when I first showed up. We were on a cruise ship then. D (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounds like a long time. I have a friend here named Duke. He's been here four months and I thought that was long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	granger_danger 2020-01-06 03:44 am UTC (link)
	It is and it isn’t. There are people here who have been here longer than I have. Ronald’s been here longer than me. I wish Harry was still here. I think I like to just remember to feel lucky enough to have anyone after so long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 03:45 am UTC (link)
	I think I'd feel the same way. Now I'm hoping Duke doesn't disappear on me (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~I spend more time than I should worrying about that~~ People come and go so often. I am not a fan of having no control. After the war, things were finally settled. I was enjoying that and then I came here. Being here, though, does have its advantages. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 03:54 am UTC (link)
	What sort of advantages? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	granger_danger 2020-01-06 03:57 am UTC (link)
	People who are no longer part of your current timeline can show up. You get time back with people who you never thought you’d see again. I think that’s pretty special. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 04:07 am UTC (link)
	That's true, I guess. I do have some people I wish I could see (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There's always the flip side to that, too. Unfortunately, there's not much we can do about any of it. Honestly, if I could, I would love to figure out this portal business a bit better. The library has been nice, but not nearly what I need for such research. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lookslikelucy 2020-01-06 04:34 am UTC (link)
	I plan to investigate it myself. Maybe we can pool our resources (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	granger_danger 2020-01-06 04:37 am UTC (link)
	With it being the new year and all, I find it important to set goals. Researching and making progress on the whole portal thing is quite high up on my list. And helping to save animals. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like a good resolution to me. Count me in (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wonderful. I work over at the antique shop if you'd like to stop in and discuss what our plan of action should be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You'll definitely be seeing me soon (Reply to this) (Parent)
