Friend disappears in shop and reappears with paid-for hideous shirt: I try to smile and say, yes that will go well with that blue scarf (which happens to cover her entire top half).

I tried again and this time it suggested 'beekeeper'. "You could work at a bee yard". It's an apiary you clowns not a 'bee yard'. Hey wait, this suggestion might be onto something.

I tried to avoid 'it depends' answers and got 'network engineer', 'cake decorator', 'criminal intelligence analyst', 'stunt performer', and 'sexual health adviser'. Well, then.

When I tried it it was surprisingly accurate, most of it were roles in computing, editing/translation or social work, all of which I've either done or could see myself doing. YMMV.

It suggested "creative and media" for me, to which I thought "oh hey, that could make sense, something like game development is my ideal career" only to click on the button to show more detail and be told that I should be an actor presumably because I said I'm comfortable talking in front of people and can read well.

Strom Cuzewon posted:"I make decisions quickly" Very quick decision: at 16:50 on Friday evening (because why do all disasters in the making take place after 4pm on a Friday afternoon?) that your clerical officer sent the WRONG ADDRESS to BT to rip out the private wire for a fire alarm and BT, instead of their usual few weeks to take action actually sprang into action the very same day and ripped out the fire alarm wire for a warehouse fully stocked with electronic equipment leaving it unprotected. By 17:00 decision taken by self and manager of guarding division to supply 24 hour guards over the whole weekend at our expense and first 2 guards dispatched to site. Very slow decision: given that I no longer have the wall space to hang more than 1/3 of my artwork collection, which painting shall I hang and where... 10 months and counting. (And the decision to actually knock nails into the wall.. OMG .. years). So, It Depends! Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 16:37 on Oct 7, 2020 |

Why is Starmer making his big public stand against the government over 10pm pub closing time? Like, it is a bit silly and there probably isn't much evidence for it helping but is it really the crucial policy issue Labour draws the line at?

peanut- posted:Why is Starmer making his big public stand against the government over 10pm pub closing time? I expect he's harking back to the days of "beer and sandwiches in No. 10" as a way to appeal to the former labour voters of the Red Wall. (I mean by prioritising the getting or otherwise of beer. Surprised he's not also asking to bring back smoking in pubs. Remembering the first time I went to an EEPTU meeting as union rep in a smokey basement in London somewhere, the handful of old blokes looked at this 23 year old female with some shock.)

At least Buzzfeed quizzes are 10 questions rather than 50. Anyway, I got Social Care & then they narrowed it down to Sexual health adviser which is not a terrible job at all but I'm not sure I'm really the right person to do it.

I'm just watching the PMQ "highlights" because I'm a masochist and Starmer has done such a massive own goal. He made this big song and dance about "why doesn't the government tell us the reasons why they're doing dumb rules" (not, notably, get rid of the rule. The closest he came to that was "review the rule"), and Boris can just get up and say "well you supported us in everything we did. Why are you now saying you disagree? Is it for politics hmmm?" Just, giving the Tories an easy out every single time. What a waste of space and oxygen.

I guess "with friends" is the obvious absence in my life though I'd much rather go somewhere with better food if I'm going with other people. Or just to the beach and get a chippy and eat it while fending off gulls and gale force winds LIKE IS PROPER. Pubs always seem like dead grim places.
