Once again, high school guidance counselors completely failed to tell me about a lucrative and exciting field of employment:
You see, after graduation, Ginny was hanging around a traveling carnival...
Man, I always wanted to feel a part of "an exciting carny clan"!!
TEN BUCKS!?!?! Dude, I so want that job!
Ginny, do you really understand glamor and excitement?
Well, I guess you do! Sleeping until noon every day?!? Wonderful, giddy evenings?!?! No wonder you're blowing this one-horse town, Ginny!!
Of course, it turned out Thorne was running a crooked game, and Ginny got arrested, and ended up in love with boring old Tom...but we can't let tiny details like that dissuade us from our new career choice! I shall be a carnival come-on girl!!
So...um....where can I find a traveling carnival?

Ten bucks a day and all the kettlecorn you can eat!
