It’s in the bag

There’s a magic 8-ball in the art department. Today I asked it, “Will these people ever hire me?”

The magic 8-ball said, “Signs Point to Yes”

Then I asked, “Will that [other place I keep getting the runaround from] ever hire me?”

The magic 8-ball said, “Most Likely”

Finally I asked, “Will that [other place I keep getting the runaround from] hire me next week?”

The magic 8-ball said, “Cannot Answer Now”

So, of course, I asked it again, and it said, “Signs Point to Yes”
