I think I just got fired from the YPL.

Professor Siz just wrote me:

'....[W]hile I greatly appreciated your help last summer, I know you’re also now looking toward the longer future. While I’d be glad to have you back as the summer assistant, I’m wondering if you’d prefer some more flexibility in searching for a permanent position than our busy summer schedule would allow.'

I mean, she offered me a good recommendation letter and all. And I know, so far, very few people have stayed with it after leaving school but...Merlin's beard, it'd be nice to be the one to decide whether I'm done or not, wouldn't it? I mean, if Avery wanted to stay, I bet she'd tell him good on you and glad to have you.

Well, I guess the positive side is that I'll have plenty of time to look for work.

Are you disappointed? I can understand why you might wonder whether she's dissatisfied with your efforts, but surely that's not why. I suspect it's more that she's being realistic about the opportunities which should be opening up for you at this point. You are Hogwarts' Head Girl, after all, which means you'll be busy with more interviews than most students will be.

Except...well, do you know what she's told Avery?

Hmm. Perhaps we could look at Islington or Southwark. Especially if we think of it as more a temporary arrangement, for perhaps a year or two until we get well established. I would definitely prefer some of the other neighbourhoods we had discussed, however.
