--- End quote ---
He's exceptionally not wrong, though. Brun is doing barback work which is less than ideal, but that's still IN THE FIELD of bartending. This is the same argument Dora had with Penelope about not wanting to put the effort in to climb the job ladder.

BenRG:
I do kind of worry about Elliott though. Admittedly, some of what he said could be considered insulting but I worry far more about how he's looking for reasons to remove himself socially from this interaction. By all means apologise if someone takes offence but what he's doing is in some way rubbing it in and is only hurting himself and drawing attention to what he said and emphasising why people should take offence! I think that he has some real strong self-esteem issues (I also base this on the fact that he didn't seem to understand why Renee reacted so strongly to a sight of his unshirted body).

Brun isn't wrong though. Claire is going to have to be ready to do some other jobs until she's able to find her 'dream job' (if ever). There's really no good result from waiting until it comes along!

Thrudd:
WRT the poll - I chose other which in this case is something a bit more practical and within the realm of "normal"1 possibility.

I put forth either Quebec City - all the ambiance of Paris without worrying about the prevailing wind
Or Montreal - just as picturesque but a little less tourist centric, a bit more cosmopolitan and the veneer is a whole lot thinner
Bonuses are - travel costs, need for passports2, The friendly veneer is thin so you will be ignored as an outsider just like in Paris
Warning - the language spoken is NOT Modern Parisian French but that of King Louis so you WILL BE at a loss if attempting to use high-school or college french. [let the fun begin]

1 Normal in this case refers to the choices of a statically average American somewhere in the northeast who would actually travel out-of-state.
2 I am assuming here that the setting is sans xenophobes holding political power except in Quebec

War Sparrow:
Bonus: In Montreal, pretty much everyone speaks English in the downtown region, that I've seen. I suspect tourist and business interests.

OldGoat:
After much disappointment and angst, Claire will be hired as Chief Librarian for Sam's high school.  The set-up will be establishing a familial relationship between them at home to allow for humor-generating situational awkwardness between them at school.
