The first five people to respond to this post, will get some form of art, by me, in all it's crappy glory. I make no guarantees about quality or type, but I assure you that I will give it my best effort and that the art will be individual to you. Whatever you get, yours is the only one like it. And if you've seen my past attempts at art, you know what your in store for.
The only catch, of course; as with most memes, if you sign up, you have to put this in your own journal as well. If you don't within 48 hours, then your slot gets passed to someone else.
I promise delivery by Christmas.
I may do requests if you know I'm capable of making said item.
I hate the media sometimes. I really do.
We're coming up to an election in Ottawa, and you'd think we only had 3 candidates.
And if by 3, you meant 7, then you'd be right. But you wouldn't know that because newspapers have no obligation to present an accurate representation of the facts.
Just because I like people to make informed decisions, here are your mayoral candidates in alphabetical order.

I may be looking at some new faces around here.
The temps have decided to revolt.
They are being *underpaid* by their agencies. In some cases they are.
There is a problem however. They are failing to understand that the contract between their agency and Health Canada, and the contract between the agency and them, have very little to do with each other.
Very few, if any, agencies will promise to pay you a percentage of the money they receive from the contract. They would like to pay you as little as possible to do the job in fact.
Knowing how much they're getting paid can give you a good idea of how much you can ask for. Askign for raises is a good thing.
Calling them up and threatening to take the contract to an agency that will pay you more will also not work. Your present agency will fire you, and never find you work again.
And about your present contract? The contract is between the employer and the agency, and the agency will find a new body to fit into your role.
We'll see if heads role.
And now, for a fire drill.
