Usually to the inevitable 'So, Jade, what d'you do?' question (I wish people were more original, I really do), I simply say:
'I don't.'
Which has the desired effect and is a more than efficient conversation killer to that line of questioning.
But really now, ask me.
Because now I can reply,
'I'm a copy editor.'
Yes, that's right ladies and gentlemen, I am entering into employment, to be confirmed on 29 July, my first official day of work. Apparently - miraculously - my interview in the middle of my train wreck week last week actually went well, and they offered me the job this morning.
Can you spell H-A-P-P-Y?
(I can, but maybe that's because I'm a copy editor. hahahahahahahaha)
