Posted in Ugh this accounting class Posted 2 years ago
    I have felt that so many times for so many of my classes. Sometimes I felt it was absurd that I had to learn some subjects that I have never, and would likely never use after the exam.

    Oh, they’re cute. I haven’t tried the nail wraps personally, but I do still get ads for the luxury ones. I found that I enjoyed using press-ons.

Posted in engagement rings arrived :DDD Posted 3 years ago
    Did the proposal already happen, or are you going to re-create it? It's very exciting!

    And I do, haha. I'm a pretty simple person and don't wear jewelry most of the time, so it fits me perfectly. We were both talking recently about how great the salesperson was; no pressure, very clever with figuring out our tastes (we went in empty-headed). She has been e-mailing my partner about wedding bands but we haven't made plans quite yet. One of the things I thought was impressive was the suggestion to get a cathedral setting so that the wedding band fit snug against the engagement ring--a suggestion we both loved.

    On the plus side, if I wanted to get a more elaborate wedding band, it won't compete with the simple design of the engagement ring.
Posted in Job Interviews Are Scary Posted 3 years ago
    The interview for one of my favorite jobs was pretty bad as an example, haha. I was flippant and didn't have any questions, but I got the job and I was the only employee that stuck around; most lasted only a couple of months at best (one didn't even make it a week). I loved that job.

    I usually just do a little research before to familiarize myself before even applying, then just answer whatever questions they have. I never seem to be interested enough to ask questions to the interviewer and I don't like playing those stupid "what if" games.

    That's pretty cute.

    Ohhh, it's lovely! I was looking at that design shape, but my partner preferred something more traditional. We ended up settling on a princess cut with a silver band.

    I found some really beautiful artistic rings and found that I was really attracted to the ones that weren't symmetrical, or had raw gems instead of diamonds.
    Mm, that's true. They've become quite cute again, and seem to look quite a bit like objects. For a while there was the trend of making them more like...ah..polygons, I suppose.
    I’ve never even heard of this new Pokémon. I feel stuck in the past with the older generations, haha.
    Volts are fine by me, Hadsvich. Thank you for hosting.
    That's fair, but an assurance about the item comes at a more premium price. It's very lucrative for developers, and really plays into the gambling habit of clients, but it's still skating the line of ethics.
Posted in I am an embarrassment Posted 3 years ago
    hahaha
    I've had a couple of those kinds of incidents, too. I think the most embarrassing one is when I apologized to a manakin I bumped into, then did it again to the same manakin a few minutes later.
Posted in Soo I had to call HR... Posted 3 years ago
    It must be some kind of unspoken requirement among managers to be incompetent twits. It's really unfortunate that you have been experiencing all of that on the job and I hope HR takes care of it.

    I think there are unhinged fanatics in every community. The funny thing about them is that they're so often incorrect, lie about their own credentials, or have their own unaddressed issues so they lash out at others for some reason or another.

    I hope you're doing well now. There's nothing I can productively add as comfort other than the fear of disappointing others can be unnecessarily crippling. I think disappointment is harder to genuinely come by, and redemption is nearly always available.

    Would you say that it was double the entertainment for the price of one?
