I still don&#x27;t understand what I&#x27;m seeing. Was this a choose your own adventure Twitter thread?<p>Edit: Yes, it was. This wasn&#x27;t immediately obvious since the Thread Reader site strips out all of the polls. Original Twitter thread is here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;vornietom&#x2F;status&#x2F;1088883750857887744" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;vornietom&#x2F;status&#x2F;1088883750857887744</a>

The Twitter thread format is so awful for this. I saw this on Twitter the day she wrote it, but she was apparently only half done. The last line I read was &quot;Nobody is going to believe your first day in the new job story.&quot; which sounded enough like a conclusion that I thought it was over. Went away feeling totally underwhelmed, and if I read it over again now it&#x27;s just not going to be the same.
