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]

I know a guy from Montreal who regularly has to travel to France (he's a particle physicist, so he has to go to CERN every once in a while), and he said that when he tries to speak French in France the people there automatically switch to English because they can't understand his French.

I know Brun doesn’t want to be a bar back, but I thought it was a stepping stone to get back to bartending.  Maybe she wants to do something else.

--- Quote from: BenRG on 02 Jul 2018, 23:25 ---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!

--- End quote ---

I think Claire's prepared for the fact that she won't be getting her dream job right away, but there's a huge difference in "I'm a barback for now but my goal is to get back to being a bartender" and "I'm a barback for now but I have a master's degree in library science and want to be a librarian."  Claire is probably going to be looking for something that at least relates to books or knowledge.

Perfectly Reasonable:
I've been to  a restaurant where the walls were lined with bookshelves. You could grab a book to peruse while waiting for your dinner. Maybe buy it on your way out.

Also, I second Québec City.  You can bone up for it by reading "Frivolesque" .


comicalArchitect:
I'm really starting to enjoy the Bakery Gang becoming their own separate social group from the core Coffee of Doom pals. This strip indicates that Roko might become the fifth member of said gang (after Clinton, Brun, Renee, and Elliot, natch), which would be interesting. I would love to see Roko have some interactions that are neither professional nor extremely awkward, because that's most of what we've gotten from her so far.
