  • When i was heavy heavy jobseeking, just applying for everything and anything, I was sending about 200 applications a week and getting about 3 rejection letters/emails a week.

    Then one day I received a hand-written letter. With a paid stamp. Lovely cursive writing. Hand drawn picture of a flower in the corner. Hand-written motherfucking rejection letter from a florist 2 towns over. Full A4 page. Im still baffled. Why put in that much effort?


  • Here in the UK “normal workers” dont even do that. Your employer does it all for you and you just get told about it in your payslip.

    [Here’s how much you earned.]

    ~[Here’s a bit of tax.] [Here’s a bit of other tax] [Here’s a bit of national insurance] [Here’s a bit of pension contributions] [Here’s some other numbers that I cant even remember because I never bother looking] [boring stuff really] [you should probably look at this but who gives a shit its boring]~

    [Heres what youre actually getting!]

    Its 100% nostalgia. Unless they change quite a lot of how the game actually works, the game kinda sucks now.

    It was beyond incredible for its time, and has earned its spot in the all-time hall of fame, but you won’t be able to get kids of today to actually enjoy it.
