@neon:
Yeah im not sure how those cables work. but I'm sure if verizon knew about it, they'd do something if it would affect someone's connection. Cause thats like... real important to them XD
I know someone who works for the company, they make a big deal about home internet.
what a silly situation though

@Totalanimefan:
me neither, I feel that haha
Usually my husband helps me decipher documents like that.

yeah, you win some you lose some I guess.
I have an interview tomorrow so I still have hopes I wont be unemployed for long!

Posted in Jolly's Dusty Cabin Posted 1 year ago


@neon:
yeah its.. still on
I'm beginning to wonder if there's a month long grace period? since it was a business contract with the apartment complex, so maybe it just doens't work the same way it would a regular customer lol
(or they forgot to cancel their plan or something HAHA)

ohh thats weird D:
maybe contact verizon, if its their cable? I would think they should have the responsibility to fix it. That doesnt sound safe

@Totalanimefan:
Ohh I'm glad she's having a good time there! Transferring licenses sounds like a complicated process but its awesome she was able to.

Today was day 1
and oh my goodness this new job is WHACK
so I'm still applying and scheduling interviews LOL
normally I'd stick it out until I hook another job, but uh... they wont even tell me what my schedule is until a moment's notice.
I expect a schedule clash and a flop

@Aisukohi:
Somehow, people still manage to surprise me. In general
You would think after over a decade of working retail jobs, from companies like Kmart to Walmart, Target, Mattress stores and so forth
that I would have seen it all by now of how people can behave
BUT STILL
there's always a new experience to be had with witnessing people.
So I agree, can't trust anyone very easily lol

Posted in Awkward interviews Posted 1 year ago


@Aisukohi:
Yeah exactly this! I was actually really worried recently with these interviews. I left my last job without anything else lined up for like 3 months. Easily would sound so irresponsible without proper context, so I was so scared about interviews asking why I left it. BUT I got lucky, no one asked
So I can keep quiet and just prove that isn't a normal thing from me.
cause yeah, seriously, its not anyone's business what goes down at the job. The context is lost already. We just wanna know that we aren't wasting our time on hiring someone flakey!!

@Totalanimefan:
Yeah the last one was good for like... a few months (but I worked there over 2 years). Then the company started losing money and so they were making harsh changes. Management was getting bitter, pay was getting smaller, and I had another dangerous situation spring up. So I threw my hands up and left.
Its so bizarre!
I left without lining up a new job first bc my husband asked me to take care of myself first. So this new job I actually start my first day on wednesday

@Ruby:
Haha yeah we had a lot of fun! It was in florida where I grew up, so I took my husband on a touristy trip to universal/islands of adventure theme parks and the florida acquarium. Most of the time was spent just the two of us, and then like 2 days of the family horde situation lmao

Thats good to hear <3

@neon:
Haha its alright though, life happens! I'm sure they're fine

@Aisukohi:
Hahaha Ive never conducted interviews (although my boss tried to toss me in a room with one once when I didn't even know what questions were needed--that was awkward)
but I have overheard a LOT of them in my last job. Because they were done right there on the sales floor and I was usually sitting nearby working on something, if I wasn't with a customer. A lot of people admit to being fired and go into crazy details about it. Some openly talk about their criminal history. Others go on big rants about how much they hate their job and get in too much gossip detail about their coworkers.
We also did drug screenings so that part had interesting reactions. One guy got so angry about the question he shouted profanities, got up, stormed to the door then paused. Turned around and shouted back, "I cant give up the weed, man!" and then left.

Like we all respect that but the way it played out was so silly.

Today in random thoughts

Our home internet was supposed to end yesterday.
apartment complex stated clearly that they would not be renewing the contract they had with the internet company.
(because the internet company used was awful lmao)

But uh

its still connected
either we're in a "grace period" of sorts or it would be nice if the internet company simply forgot to turn us off
I can watch youtube on my ps4 for a little longer HAHA

@goth:
thats alright! This site is still active but it doesn't move TOO fast, so you can feel free to get on with your day and come back when you feel like it.
its busy-people friendly xD

Posted in Hello hello Posted 1 year ago


@Totalanimefan:
oooo a lot of fun things! I hope your move goes smoothly!

I ended up switching jobs, so I'm pretty happy too. Otherwise been saving so much that I actually haven't gotten up to much.
Its annoying not being able to go out and do many things, but it'll be worth it for our goals

@GoblinsAndTea:
Signs, graphic designs, whats the difference? /jk

not gonna lie though, that sounds like an odd tedious job that I would probably enjoy lmao

the second part though yeah!! I have seen rules against body mods before like this and its so confusing?
Like
my piercings arent gonna get caught in a printer machine or anything?? and certainly my tattoos wont be hazardous in any way?
at that point its probably something like "the owner doesnt like it so we cant do it!" which is a reason I was given against coloring my hair once lol

@MaxIsConfused:
omg, maybe they were just trying to be cute? What a weird way to put it lmao

I feel very suspicious when I get hired too quickly. Like I did get hired from one of last week's interviews, but it was just a phone interview and she barely asked anything? Never met in person, never had a prior interview or screening. She's just like "Yeah I wanna hire you. I'll send you an offer letter within a couple hours when I finish the rest of my interviews"
PFFT
not complaining
maybe she just liked my resume that much

@Sage:
LOL
MY BOSS DID THAT ONCE with a girl he was interviewing in my last job! He wasn't flirting, but he just got randomly excited about things and will take people on a tour. Even to see the back rooms where, for safety reasons cause of machinery, it was supposed to be strictly associates only back there!

Imagine my surprise when I would be the one driving the machines back there and suddenly there's a stranger appearing who could even have a child with them (cause he did this with customers)
and my machine has a million blind spots like

STOP

@neon:
This is actually insanely funny
I've always wondered what would happen if I lied and said I love the store and shop there all the time ect.
I almost did that for an interview with Dillards recently. But I quickly caught on to the fact that I actually didn't know the first thing about Dillards and by the questions she was asking, that probably would have ended up weird.

But I mean, it ended up weird anyways just with me being honest cause I forgot how to talk that day.

@Ruby:
Ohh, my condolences to the funeral. But I am glad you're able to connect with family.
I was thankfully able to do that too recently for my grandfather's 80th birthday. For the first time in 15 years, all of my close relatives were under the same roof again!
It was beyond the meaning of chaos the numbers multiplied, so many of them had several children each..

@Totalanimefan:
Heyyy! I am back
Thank you. What have you been up to?
