I heard ‘revenge is a lazy way to grieve’ recently and it’s really stuck with me. Your comment reminded me of that.
Can a bitch just get Sim Tower?! I miss that game the most from childhood…
If nothing else, take comfort in the growth of society since the time being depicted. Most places wouldn’t, uh, make human soup nowadays. So that’s nice, anyway.
Annoying as they are, there are few pleasures like hitting a tumbleweed with your car. They explode in the most satisfying way.
I used to work for the state of IL and remember I applied on their website, then didn’t hear back for a civil service exam for 6 months! I thought I was outright rejected up until they reached back out a half a year later hahaha
I really thought that when I managed to get a ‘grown up’ job that the money thing would be much less daunting but I have been a fool there. It’s so weird to be ‘successful’ in your work yet not able to ever stop being paycheck to paycheck.
Anyway, back to the question…I work from home in my regular FT gig so I have been looking for simple but social work. For me, this means something in the service industry like working a door on weekends at pubs. I hate customer service but fuck me if it isn’t the only thing I can think of that keeps me chatting with people.
Western US, I work FT in financial crime as a senior analyst. I’m actively looking for a new employer and applying for postings that meet my privileged requirements because I’m not yet desperate. I’m also considering taking a part-time job (how the fuck do we manage to afford to live anymore, seriously?!) that’s something entry level and social.
That said, I primarily browse on LinkedIn for a replacement to my main gig, and I’ve used Indeed a little bit. For the PT gigs, I am using a local paper’s app to browse their classifieds.
Edit to add: I also use Blind and Glassdoor to get a read on the places I’m applying. No one wants to work at some shithole if it can be helped. If you’re looking for a referral to places, I’d recommend asking in the company’s Blind if someone is willing.
Oh great, thanks for the response! I’m glad these are in the works
I am new to mlem since trying out Memmy and much prefer this app. Very clean, easy to digest, and an absolutely adorable icon! However, I notice that posts do not get marked as read as I scroll through All or what have you. I don’t need to click on a meme to have read it, you know. Is there an option to mark as read on scroll that I’m missing?
Also, any option to search within a community? For example, if I wanted to search “read” on the mlemapp community to see if my above question has been mentioned…
