David: Work History

I went to school to become an engineer. It wasn’t until after I graduated that they told me I wouldn’t get to drive a train.

So I went back and got a doctorate in philosophy. I figured that would let me perform surgery on people’s morality, but it turns out it doesn’t work like that.

Then I decided to become a journalist. That fell through when I discovered no one wanted to pay to read my diary.

Finally, I studied acupuncture and tattooing at the same time. I can align your chakras and give you a bitchin’ tramp stamp simultaneously.
