Sky Hut (six images down). Truly remarkable, a newtonian tele-microscope for observing ants. And yep I'm sure given GB's clement weather that roof is gonna be open a lot. Note to Bruce best not this one.

Still alive, but barely. Conditions at work have declined to "shit's not funny anymore" levels. Sanity is nearly depleted. Took a one week vacation for the first time ever. Got a haircut and watched the last of the brown hair on my right side fall to the floor. It's all white on the right now. I look like I got slapped upside the head by death.

Death took one of my co-workers last week. I've been rather sore with him for leaving me behind. :|

Kinda the same here. Gotten progressively worse through the COVID mess as well.

Still a shame about my 5 bucks though.

No shit. Everyone is doing it. That's why it's been taking so long.

Turned out to be one of those situations where they already had an internal candidate picked but had to interview external candidates "for legal reasons". I don't understand why interviewing candidates you don't intend to hire is the law, but that's bullshit that should be illegal. Complete waste of everyone's time. :x

Interviewer: What characteristic would you say is your strong point?

I am honest

Interviewer: How will that help our company?

I don’t give a fuck.

Total opposite lol

xouper · Post by **xouper** » Wed Jul 28, 2021 8:01 pm

I didn't say it was the same, I said it was related. The job candidate's answers are essentially the same in both versions.

Change forums. That'd be easier on all of us.

Dipshit. :)

This precisely why I went with concealed carry.

Although admittedly, I did not get the job,

Still, it was emotionally validating.

I see you have me on ignore that means you already have the echo chamber that you so desire.

I prefer being on ignore by people who would otherwise just heckle me.

When you decide a post is not interesting to you, then yes that is on you, not anyone else. So, you can take your blame game and fuck right off.

Caveat: Some of them at that link look like they might be photoshopped.

Yeah, I think you might be right. No one in their right mind would have a telescope that close to a grill.

Edit to add: Jeez you got a lair worthy of some billionaire and all you got is a 60mm K-Mart special?
