<p>Winter shrugged. &ldquo;Not really feeling it lately. Had a string of creeps, so I&rsquo;m mostly doing Simpletasks and looking for something more stable.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Frowning, Malina looked around The Book and The Bean and, seeing no one in need of drinks, pulled out the other chair at the lynx&rsquo;s table to sit. &ldquo;Hopefully nothing too dramatic happened.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;No, thank goodness. Just a string of bad luck with lewd assholes.&rdquo; She typed at her laptop briefly, pulled up a site, and turned it toward the badger. &ldquo;Apparently there&rsquo;s a site for reviewing drivers on a sort of hot-or-not basis, and I guess I made the list.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Malina&rsquo;s frown deepened. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d say congratulations if that weren&rsquo;t disgusting.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Malina&rsquo;s frown deepened. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d say congratulations if that weren&rsquo;t completely disgusting.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Winter laughed and shook her head. &ldquo;Yeah, no congrats needed.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;There anything that GetThere can do about it?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t think so. They don&rsquo;t seem to care about the drivers all that much, truth be told. Not like I&rsquo;m the first to bring it up or anything.&rdquo; Winter gave her hot chocolate a slow swirl, watching the skin that was starting to form on the surface ripple. &ldquo;They just sent me a canned response of, like, how to stay safe as a driver.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Malina crossed her arms and leaned back in her seat. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s frustrating. Is Simpletask treating you any better, at least?&rdquo;</p>
<p>Something about the lynx&rsquo;s expression caused her to look away. They sat in silence.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Either way.&rdquo; Winter tried to keep the dejection out of her voice, tried to sound positive. &ldquo;If you have any tips on job openings, I&rsquo;m all ears.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Either way.&rdquo; Winter tried to keep the dejection out of her voice, tried to sound positive. Tried to smile. &ldquo;If you have any tips on job openings, I&rsquo;m all ears.&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Well, do you know anything about coffee?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;I&hellip;well, no. Are you hiring?&rdquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve got some shifts that could use some coverage.&rdquo; The badger smiled, shrugged. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a coffee shop job. Doesn&rsquo;t pay much and I don&rsquo;t have a whole lot of shifts open, but if you&rsquo;re willing to learn&ndash;&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;We&rsquo;ve got some shifts that could use some coverage.&rdquo; The badger smiled, shrugged. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s a coffee shop job. Doesn&rsquo;t pay much and I don&rsquo;t have a full-time work week&rsquo;s worth of shifts open, but if you&rsquo;re willing to learn&ndash;&ldquo;</p>
<p>&ldquo;Of course!&rdquo; Winter caught herself short and laughed. &ldquo;Sorry. Yeah, I&rsquo;d be up to learn.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Malina&rsquo;s smile widened. &ldquo;Great. Follow me.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Wrong-footed, the lynx tilted her head. &ldquo;What, now?&rdquo;</p>
