I found work!
And am sober. Ahhhhh Soon I will be able to buy a guitar, weed, and a skateboard. Kinda need a place to stay first though.

All of my other fur babies go crazy for them but not him so much.

A bit on the lawsuit just to add some perspective:
We had 2 independent lawyers on our side working out of a small office downtown. It's all we could afford. US Megacorp had these guys: http://www.dyk e ma.com/ (Remove the spaces from both sides of the E.) 15 US offices, 425 lawyers, $220 million in revenue last year China Factory had these guys: https://www.gtlaw.com/en 38 offices worldwide, 1730 lawyers, $1.4 billion in revenue It was a senior partner of this firm that found the loophole that got our contract thrown out. I guess we never really stood a chance. On the plus side both US Corp and China dude probably spent anywhere from 5-7 times more than we had to.

I told a coworker that I didn't want to hold their baby with a simple "no thanks" and I think I just made an enemy.

On the plus side, about 25 years from now that child will search you out to say "Thank you!".
