@Totalanimefan: lol XD ....or something. I'm not sure what's going on out there at this point, tbh! XD
@Totalanimefan: I actually got turned down for a job because i had a second job. I think it's a little ridiculous, if you ask me. If you're able and willing to balance 2 jobs, then your jobs shouldn't get pissy about it.
@Totalanimefan: Oh man, right?! Or maybe they just... didn't need to work for a while. That drives me crazy. i hate that. i've had interviews where they've asked me to explain any gaps in employment, and i literally tell them I was in a situation where Employment was not a priority and was unnecessary for me to have a fulfilling life style and I spent that time focusing on myself and doing whatever made me happy. then they asked what kinds of things, and i was like, oh, just like, arts and crafts, spending time with friends and family, reading, and just generally existing and taking up space. Whatever made me happy at the time. And they were ... shocked? by my response? Like they didn't know that that was something a person could do.
@Totalanimefan: lol - if only it were that simple...well, except for the papaya which seems absolutely determined to grow! XD
@Totalanimefan: yeah, i hate it. it's rediculous. Part of the reason why i did instacart shopping for a year, actually. It was basically to have something on my resume for that year i was not working. The other reason was cause i had bills to pay and covid had just hit and everyone was staying home. So i went out lol

I mostly lurk, but will post from time to time.
@totalanimefan: morning! Time for the first day of training- there are 24 people in this particular training class. and it's on zoom, so that will be nice- i won't have to talk much!
I need to get my laptop out so i can be on Voltra throughout the day.

@Totalanimefan: oh nice! Yeah, training with this company is like 98% modules 2% hands on. Which sucks for me cause I learn by doing.
The first day is always so boring. I'm half tempted to grab my laptop to watch big bang theory while I wait for everyone else to finish their agreements and acknowledgments.
Goodluck on the pre-exam!

@Totalanimefan: well, I've been up since 3am, so... errrgh... there's that. /eyeroll/ At least it has been a productive day but when I crash, I'm going to crash harrrrd!
I haven't checked the weather... but Florida. 99.8% of the time it's sunny and various levels of hot and humid, so there's not much point. I should see what the forecast for tomorrow is though - I'm supposed to be heading to Busch Gardens with a friend.
... but I can see why you wouldn't want to go grill peaches and nectarines if it's raining. Yuck. :3
How are you doing?

Is anyone else running around today so far, or is everyone taxed out on posting and earning dust bunnies and event items?? XD
@Wildfire: I'd rather be chatting and earning dust buns than doing what i'm doing today. I actually pulled out my laptop just so i can be on Voltra! Today is the first day of training for my new job, and of course that means going through all the acknowledgements and agreements, and since it's a training class, i have to wait on 25 other people to also go through them and not all of them are fast...
@Totalanimefan: I do, but i just don't retain much when listening, And if i'm note taking, i retain a little more, but not nearly as much as what i retain when actually doing the thing i'm learning. I also have ADHD and an auditory processing issue, so listening is difficult anyways.
@Alorrena: oh - those days can be tedious... :( but congrats on the new job. Do you have any idea if you like it or not yet?
@Totalanimefan: yeah, it kinda does suck XD
Busch Gardens could be fun. It has been a while since I was there last. I know they have at least one new roller coaster...

@Wildfire: I won't really know until i'm taking calls. Once that starts i'll have an idea of if i'll like it or not.
