Back on the Job [open]
Jo wasn't sure what exactly happened to people who had amnesia and then got their memory back again. Did they go back to their jobs? Jo had to admit that maybe it was that way for her. She had no formal education in anything, except for maybe hustling people and bar tending. Growing up in a roadhouse had perhaps yielded to her some information after all. She wasn't sure what the City was up to, but after trying to find the bar where she used to work, she was forced to go job hunting again. The one thing about bars was that if you had a pretty face, chances were that they would hire you. That is, except for when the bar maid that they hired pulled out a shotgun and knew how to use it. That either made sure she stayed or made sure that she got fired.

She was on bar number three for employment before she finally found a permanent job of sorts. The owner was nearly as drunk as his patrons, and for that, Jo was grateful, especially when she could point a shotgun in his face and not get fired. It made the job interesting. The more interesting thing was that the owner's wife seemed to be running the whole operation from behind the scenes, and instantly made sure that Jo got a room in the back after she pointed the shotgun.

Cleaning off the bar after a long night of serving drinks and cleaning it, Jo wasn't surprised that quite a few people were passing by outside. The bar never officially closed, serving well into the wee hours of the morning just to make the money needed to run the place. Jo had been in plenty of bad places before, and this really wasn't so bad. Especially when the men didn't know the dollar bills that they pulled out for tips. Her weapons were safely stored in the back, and right after this, Jo was going to close up. She had to get Hunting again, it was like a beacon calling out to her.

((Sorry this took so long!))

Her leg was distracting her. Her concentration faltered, and the blow broke through what little invulnerability she had managed to muster up. Shit, she thought in the seconds between being hit and hitting the ground. Stubborn as she was, she may have forced herself back up for yet another round of getting the shit beat out of her, but her head cracked loudly on the pavement as she landed and knocked her out cold.

[Not a problem, seeing as how I probably took longer.]

With a stutter, the car came to life as Jo buckled herself in. "Thank you, Ash for teachin' me something that came in handy after all." Putting the truck in reverse, Jo maneuvered it out of the parking space, glancing in front of her to see who was getting beat up more. While she would have loved to stick around, she had a feeling she'd let the two of them finish whatever they needed to do.

Once she was out, she shifted gears again and drove away. Hopefully to find somewhere else to sleep tonight. And to possibly get some new IDs.
