Spotted at Oxford Circus #london yesterday evening. Naturally, the link to the #metropolitianpolice site on #facialrecognition doesn't work for me.

Astonishingly, I was awarded an 8% raise (!) at my 6-year performance review. Everything I can tell about my company's owner/founder/CEO suggests that he would like nothing more than to fire me as a cost-cutting measure--but apparently, I'm too useful to the *running of the actual business itself* not to be retained. (I handle a LOT of stuff for these folks.)

Anyway, the upshot is I may soon have money to support a couple more small creators! Who should I check out?? #LFR
