Synopsis

Kathleen is looking for employment and only finds jobs which are, according to her friend Mike, scatological in nature. Annoyed at the lack of help from him and the lack of fulfilling jobs, Mike suggests a visit to the careers counsellor. Kathleen reluctently agrees to this after declaring she is up for anything except testing horse urine for drug use. The trip turns out to be unhelpful as the counsellor suggests Kathleen "help people actualise their material nationalism...in flag form". After finding out about Mike's fancy walking skills and his persuasiveness, Kathleen decides to first start a street side psychology business, then a grammar analysis business. After both fail, Kathleen gets annoyed and tries to chase after Mike, only to be thwarted by his fancy walking skills. Eventually Kathleen ends up at the flag shop that Mike works at.

Trivia

• Mike really does work at The Flag Shop.
