=====
Tandia: Do you want these want ads after I'm finished with them?
Hank: No, I'm not going to find my dream job in the classifieds. I'm going to have to get more creative with my job search.
Tandia: What are you looking for?
Hank: I want a job that's rewarding and fast-paced, and with good growth potential, but all I see are dead-end jobs.
Tandia: I know what you mean. I'm looking for something that's challenging, but also with flexible work hours. All of my friends have great jobs. Why can't I land one of them?
Hank: Instead of feeling sorry for ourselves, we need a better game plan.
Tandia: What do you have in mind?
Hank: I'm not sure, but we need to get noticed.
Tandia: Why don't you take out a billboard? That should get you noticed.
Hank: Hey, that's really thinking out of the box.
Tandia: I was joking!
Hank: I'm not. That's an inspired idea. Now what should we put on the billboard?
Tandia: You're crazy!
