No Lingering Evil, No Lucifer Loyalists, No Heaven Loyalists...Oi
So, I haven't done this in a very long time. And someone should be. I keep seeing questions being asked that should be easy to answer, that should have been answered long ago. I apologise to new arrivals for not being around more. It's been a difficult few months, but I'm trying to get over work through that and be who the people here expect me to be.

My name is Rose Tyler and I've been running a class here called Welcome to Lawrence. It teaches the basics on being newly brought by the Seal. It's complicated, and we all know it, and no one should have to feel helpless.

I'll go over the important things, such as housing, jobs, education, etc. Also a basic rundown on protecting yourself. Obviously, now that we're post-Apocalypse, some of the old material won't be quite as relevant, but I'll walk you through what I can. The latest class will be Thursday evening, around 8pm at the Lawrence Youth Center.

I also run a place in the middle of the city, the Lawrence Youth Center (see what I did there?). It's set up to be a safe place for teens and pre-teens to hang out after school. There's sports teams and lessons, dance, tutoring, even a game room and some enrichment classes for kids who'd like to learn more. I believe a few of our new arrivals fall into that age group, about 10/11 on up to 18. You're more than welcome to come.

...also, last but not least, we could really use someone with office managerial experience. I appreciate everything Lois has done during my absence, but I think we need a permanent replacement to my last manager again. If you're new and would be willing to help out, I'd love to chat with you.

tl;dr? Welcome, we'll be meeting Thursday evening. Kids are welcome to come play. And HELP Now Hiring!

I swear those kids take advantage of my lesser football knowledge.

Well, yeah. Why wouldn't they? They still adore you, though.

Not blaming them, I know I would. Oh yeah, I can feel the adoration in the extra gentle tackles that even I know are completely against the rules.

If you don't enforce the rules, we're going to have to assume that Coach Robin just really loves being tossed on the ground.

There's rules. But I'd hate to take their fun away. Better me than someone else?

So we'll just keep throwing you on the ground. Precious!

What's this "we'll" business? Privileges for the kids. No tackling by Rose permitted.

It is entirely possible I should sign myself up for this class I think assuming there is one for adults.

(Reply to this) (Thread)

The class itself is for adults. Or, rather, for all new arrivals, including adults and kids. You're more than welcome to attend.

Would someone with a head full of business knowledge help? Because I'd beup for helping you out.

It'd be a full time job, Jim. I know you've got all that knowledge now, but if you'd rather be using that as a consultation thing, I'd get it.

The Seal keeps taking my office managers is all.

Plans can always change. I'd much rather help you out and just consult on the side. I only have one person I'm helping right now anyway.

Well...if you're sure, I wouldn't complain. I've got the time to focus now, I'm missing a semester of school. But that won't be forever, and that isn't really my position here.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]captcasanova
2014-04-08 03:17 am UTC (link)
I'm sure. I think it will probably be something I like more anyway. And on the added plus side I'll be there to supervise those improvements you said the center needs needs.

...thank you. Really, Jim. You could have your choice of a dozen other things to do and you really don't have to do this, but I so, so appreciate it.

Hey, you're a really good friend. If I can help my friends out I'd rather do that than make a lot of money. I like the center and I want to make sure it's around for a long time.

You will get paid. I can promise you that, at least. I mean, it's an actual job, after all. But it does need people who love it working there. It's a bit of a labour of love that way.

You can pay me a really tiny amount of money for doing this if you insist. I honestly have enough to live off of for a very long while. I'm doing this because it's something I think I can definitely grow to love doing. And hopefully I can do it the way you want it done.

Hi, Davina. The class usually is pretty helpful, plus you'll get to meet some of the other people here.

That sounds perfect. I could use some friends. You said there's tutoring, right? Maybe I can figure out how far behind I am and get caught up so I can start back to school in the fall.

There is, yeah. There may also be some here willing to home school you till you're back on track. Just ask around, it should be fine!

Would it explain some things, basics I mean, for those of us from other lands.

It'll explain a bit, but if you need any other help, Ana, don't hesitate to ask. You did really well with modern malls and things so I don't think you'll have much trouble adjusting in general.

Shopping is shopping darling. No matter the world.

But I would appreciate the help with some of the other suprising things about this land

I believe your classes would be a start

Shopping is shopping except for cash registers, escalators, blaring noises...I've been to other worlds, not like yours but kind of a similar thing. Everyone may need to shop but the way it's done can be vastly different and you handled it with grace. Be proud of yourself, it's a big deal!

I'll see you Thursday night and we'll see if you don't have anymore questions after that.

[info]notpureofheart

Alright yes, you have a point, though blaring noises don't phase me. Wonderland and all.

But perhaps I shall be proud of myself. Ariel and Belle too?

If there is anything I can do in return, magical defences on your building or something, I could help with that
