I like publishing. I love to write. I like to go to museums.
I have a job selling cars. My wife use to be a teacher but is now in publishing. My hobbies include painting pictures. Pizza is my favorite food. I live near the Smithsonian. I like dinosaurs.
When is your first day of work selling cars? My job starts today. I'm excited yet nervous as I have been unemployed for quite some time. Are you still working as a writer full-time? I'm doing a little bit of editing work for people while I try to sell some of my most recent writing. It's a tough market! Yes, I certainly agree. While I was unemployed, my side gig was writing for Barclaycard travel. I lost my side gig in Jan 2021 as the site was closing down. Do you have any side gigs on top of your regular job? Just the editing work right now. What made you decide to look for a job selling cars? Sorry I accidentally pressed the send button before I intended to. I actually applied for numerous job in different industries and the car selling job was the only one I got hired for. I have experience in selling cars and I love cars, so I feel fortunate to have landed this job.  That's good! Do you get paid by commission?  Yes, I do. We get paid a small base salary plus commission. Good thing my wife brings in a decent income, so no matter how hard times are, we will still have a roof over our head and food on the table.  It's very nice to have that assurance. Commission can be a good way to make money but it's not very dependable sometimes. Freelance writing is also unpredictable like that. After I get my first paycheck at this new job, I would like to treat you out for Pizza. I'm looking forward to talk with you about doing writing and editing side jobs. I hope I get to meet your wife too. Pizza is always good! I'm sure we can spend a lot of time talking about writing, editing, and the publishing industry. I will bring my life along. She enjoyed talking to you the last time the 3 of us met.
