Wishing you the best of luck!

This is true courage. I salute you.
You are a strong man 💪🏽

Doing overtime for the first time ever this week. Only an extra hour per day but it’s really taking it out of me! Little extra money next payday will sure be nice though
Perfect day for WFH in shorts, uggs and a hoodie.
I love autumn days like this.
Hiya
hi mum
It’s cold outside, going out in full scarf, coat, beanie and gloves kit today.

Hope you brought a bag to carry those in on the way home 😁

Hey I never said there was anything wrong with that 😈🐟
Other people’s…pumpkins 🙀
I’m watching this doco called Love has won: the cult of mother God. Right at the start we are told that Mother God has passed on and her body is still warm so she must be a God. Um no. I think it has to do with the thousand and one Christmas lights wrapped around her mummified corpse. But I’m no scientist. Then it’s apparent they are tripping on hallucinogenics non stop throughout the day. No wonder they are seeing angels. This is fucking hilarious.
huh. finally remembered my login details on my new phone.
Welcome back! May you not get booted out again by a lemmy update.
many thanks
G’day MW! Good to see you again. I strongly recommend a password manager. I personally use bitwarden and it’s really good. I know it’s a bit nerve wracking putting all your passwords in one place, especially with what happened to LastPass, but as long as you use a strong master password there’s nothing to worry about
hey! nice to see you and everyone again too.
what happened with last pass?? I can get a free account through work, but sounds like I may not want to…
Try using a password manager! I use Bitwarden.
Hello friend!! 💜💜
thank you!
🎉
indeed
Fark it’s cold inside my non insulated house 😔
Got a cold call for a job that’s a lot like what I used to do so I’m 95% sure I don’t want it, but I’ve got dragged into a chat with the director on Monday anyway despite telling the recruiter it’s probably not for me??
Am bored/curious so I’ll go, although I don’t like wasting people’s time… but geez the recruiter was persistent. I’m sure he must be getting a cut for any interview he scores even though the chance of converting it into a hire is low
Never feel bad about wasting a company’s time when it comes to hiring. Everyone gets jerked around in the hiring process, it’s good to give it back to them now and then
Very fair point. That makes me feel better about going in out of sheer curiosity and to work out where I fit in in the industry and maybe make a couple connections. It has been a long road towards not taking these evaluations too personally (whether positive or negative) or feel like I need to be selling myself at all times. And it’s a small industry, so it’s easy to feel over-conscious about what people think, but I’m sure I can still maintain a decent enough profile with a gracious “thanks but no thanks” at the end of the interview.
They don’t get a cut for the interview, but they do if you are hired and it’s a lot. Something like 5-10% of your salary. If they fill a $100k position, they get something like $10k. Or, their employer does. Which is why you see so many recruiters self-employed.
I figured it should be for hires, not just finding candidates and getting interviews. Guy must be a bit of a rookie if he thinks I’d seriously convert into a hire but I guess it’s a tight market in that specific sector.
Nothing makes me feel richer than buying something that’s hidden behind the counter and only has empty boxes on the shelves
spoiler
Except of course the fact that even a single $1 stamp is hidden behind the counter now
Are you responsible enough with that stamp young friend?
One day you’ll be able to tell the younger generation “back in my day we had stamps and they kept them behind the counter”.
back in my day there used to be stamp vending machines. You put your 2 or 5c coin in and a single stamp would come out and you would have to detach it from the perforations
Fuckin ay 5 cents? I paid $1.20 a stamp 😭😭
That’s so cool!
Back in my day the local post office was a tiny little cubicle with a slidey window (looked a bit like a confessional booth) that sat inside a wool shop. It was also run by my prep teacher so I sometimes got to see her on the school holidays.
Are you responsible enough with that stamp young friend?
I don’t think so old friend. I had to google how the hell they worked and even now I’m essentially just guessing. It said it’s $1.20 postage to Melbourne, so I think it’ll arrive. In any case, I learnt through an eBay seller that Auspost don’t just refuse to deliver if you don’t put enough stamps on, they just make the recipient pay the difference, so I can’t really mess up (I think)
I have no idea but my guess will be that it will still get there because the price of stamps have just gone up.
She’ll be right
