Life is so nice if you have a job you enjoy
#every shift I’m more baffled about how nice this place is#I’m so happy i found it and that they hired me#I’m over here making lattes and fancy iced teas and drinks and i feel taken seriously#the colleagues are so nice and the general environment of the cafe is also very nice and cozy#and they pay me decently well#and you can just make whatever drink you want for yourself or even make up your own whenever you want#lije at my old job i was allowed ond hot drink during my break and then one soda after my shift#here you can do whatever you want I’m so happy

i'm not reblogging the whole post again but @zorilleerrant you are so real for this
#there are a great many skills and crafts that do take time effort and whatnot to do decently well#i can verify that. i do SEVERAL myself#costume jewellery is not and will never be one of them#which is great because honestly more people should make things with their hands (if they have hands and those hands are functional)#it's good for the soul#the reverse of 'you're paying me far too much for this tbh'#is that it's probably the ONE thing that you can start doing for yourself for VERY little investment#have nice stuff almost immediately#and feel like a god for beating claire's at the own game

see I can’t accept charles’ comic background and socioeconomic status as canon for the show because if I did that would mean the whole group would be a bunch of rich kids and that’s a horrifying concept
#ranging from vaguely upper class (niko and charles via comic logic) to presumably quite wealthy (edwin) to straight up ultrarich (crystal)#well off but doesn’t own a mansion -> owns a mansion -> owns several mansions in several countries#but yeah that aside. I don’t like the idea of him being raised upper class or even upper middle and yes I know he went to a private catholic#school that presumably costs a decent amount of money but for one we don’t Know how much exactly by that point in time (I’m assuming it was#more prestigious and expensive back in edwin’s day) and it’s not like middle class or even working class people can never afford#to send their one (1) kid to catholic school. like that’s really not too unusual. I know this is an american example but im thinking about#lady bird and her catholic school situation- her family was financially unstable and still paid for Catholic school because it was (in their#opinion) the best offering for an education in the neighborhood (and as someone who lives in the same city in the same Area of the same#city I can tell you that that choice does make sense even for a non-catholic. the public schools round here can be uhhhhhh rough)#so im seeing charles’ situation sorta like that#his dad seems like the type to want him ‘kept in line’ and ‘whipped into shape’ and I think he’d pay for that if he could manage it#idk something about charles is just……he has an appeal by being the Normal Kid amongst them. not raised as anything special. not having all#his needs met. never expecting to do anything super grand with his life. just a city kid yknow#anyway SOMEONES gotta know how to cook. I don’t think crystal or edwin have ever had to cook for themselves in their lives and niko seems to#live on instant ramen and i mean I bet she can cook very basic japanese meals but that’s about it#please for the love of god tell me charles learned some stuff from his mom and can cook an adequate meal#I know ghosts don’t eat but shut up#rambling#charles#dead boy detectives spoilers

Someday, when the company I work for finally catches me and kicks me out the door (I've been here 23 years, and have narrowly avoided layoffs SO. MANY. TIMES.), it's going to fall apart behind me. Because I have so many layers of knowledge that is nowhere in writing because it requires you to know how things worked 20 years ago to figure out why it's not vibing with new things invented today. People inventing new things today do not know they need to know that stuff from 20 years ago, so they don't design the product to work with grandfathered shit. Because ideally, old shit shouldn't be grandfathered for long. Sell that customer new shit! But some customers fall through the cracks.
And I'm the only one who Remembers The Old Ways.
#ltleramblings#this message brought to you#by an account with a product still running from 2003#TWO-THOUSAND-AND-THREE#WE DON'T EVEN HAVE SERVERS THAT RUN THAT SHIT ANYMORE#WHY ARE YOU STILL PAYING FOR IT???#WHO IS IN YOUR ACCOUNTING DEPARTMENT?? oh it's probably ai#well there's yer problem#i deserve to make twice what i'm making#which is A DECENT FUCKING PAYCHECK#but they capped my raises for like 5 years#i should be making 3 figures#i have 3 figures worth of knowledge#pay me more cowards

i know i already posted about this but im genuinely so mad that my car died like i expected it but also buying a new one makes me wanna claw my eyes out
#i also can't be normal about anything and i will obsess over this until the problem is solved bc that's who i am#what i need to do is take a break because it's almost 10 pm and that's bedtime!#i will find something and my parents are offering to help it will be okay#plus i already found one i kinda wanna test drive#it's dirt cheap but looks decent maybe ??#my dad also suggested getting a cheap new one and financing it but the idea of paying $10000+ for a car does make me feel slightly ill#like i know they cost that but christ (well. more than that. but saying an actual realistic number would make me fully pass out)#bri babbles

#ddolbox#casually nominates eunseok's parents for the grammys#they raised him so well too damn#i'd be asking korea's government to pay me if i raised a decent man!

#ive been stressing all day about a purchase i'm not even making lol#i have mental problems sjfmsjg#no but for real i was reviewing the tablet i had decided on to buy in the distant future#and found out it's actually not very good for drawing which is the sole reason i want to get a tablet#and i got physical symptoms of anxiety and dread as if i had wasted money#on a thing I DIDN'T BUY#but then i found another tablet which is good for drawing and it's a bit more expensive#and once again i got the anxiety levels of someone being hunted for sport#for another product I DIDN'T BUY#but it's just this horrible timing thing that's making me anxious#because it's a lot of money that i have to spend on this#and I don't have a regular income#and my country's economy is hell to the point that by tomorrow the price could double without warning#and there's also there's some sales coming so maybe i should wait til then#but then also i have to catch the sale and the product i want#and also the holidays are coming so the price might spike up#and i never know when the correct time to buy anything is!!#and this folks is why I don't gamble lol#no but for real... i have been panicking all day and I don't even have a proper reason#i could also live without the tablet very well so it feels like a waste of money in general#so...#i have issues with spending money...#especially because I don't know when it's gonna be the next time i get work#could be next week... could be in six months... could be never again...#if i just could get hired for a proper project woth a decent pay...#ahhh the dream :')#ok i'm gonna go to bed now (if my stupid ear '''''infection'''''' lets me...)#life is hell but at least i got to boop people today <3#angel talks#personal

I like how in my life I went from: "I am intrinsically different from other human beings because I'm smarter and a better person than everyone else, but I will always be alone for it, though" as a child, to "Well, people are very different and not everyone is as bad or as dumb. There's lots of people who are worth it and lots of people who are good and smart. It's not just me!" as a teen, then back again to "I am intrinsically different from other human beings because I'm smarter and a better person than everyone else" as an adult. And yes, I am on antidepressants.
#liveblogging my life#people are so fucking stupid all the time#my cousins were having a conversation on Christmas over chatgpt#and one of them (a PHILOSOPHY teacher) was talking about how to catch students using it#and my other cousin (a techbro insufferable programmer) was like “well but you use it right?” and my other cousin was like#“yes to help me with menial tasks but you need to have knowledge and critical thinking to be able to use it properly so i can't have#and my idiot techbro cousins went “well if it gets to the point where AI does everything students won't need to learn how to do stuff#without it right?“#yes let's make children stupid on purpose and unable to live without technology on purpose#that sounds normal and fine and not insane#and my teacher cousin didn't even fight it he just laughed#BRO YOU ARE A TEACHER#i know none of us want to be teachers we were just humanities idealists who had to take the teaching path bc in spain it's decent pay and#job security#but I still want to feel like I'm teaching something#that I'm giving my students something actually valuable#the world literally feels hopeless everything is just a soulless giant corporation that doesn't produce anything valuable#as in actually valuable not money valuable#all we can do is stuff that lines up some billionaires pockets but never our own and never helps anyone instead makes everyone's life worse#and you will go to the therapist saying stuff like this which is a very accurate assessment of capitalism and the world#and they will go “hmm” and put you on antidepressants#and i love my therapist she's amazing but I'm just lining the pockets of the clinic she works at to rant

posting more on tumblr lately cus 1. it's my last bastion of social media that people i see regularly irl dont follow me and 2. trying to avoid my stupid baka life and two assignments i have due in 4 days one of which i've not even started LOL but between you and me i think that if the last two times ive had to get my flights back to wales it's made me literally want to blow myself up then maybe i should rethink staying there for another year after i finish my degree in april...
#i love love love love wales i just havent been doing very well in the brain at all the last while#i would be really really sad to leave but i also just want to be at home and be with my family again#idk.. we'll see what happens#a lot of it comes down to getting a job because if i cant get a decent job there i will go broke after one rent payment#and theres no point in having a job that pays the bills but makes me wanna shoot myself#id rather be at home and like yeah isolated missing my friends but at least comfortable#just fear id regret it in the long run LOL idkkkkkkk man!!!!!!#poast

By the way I'm genuinely of the belief I got this damn job because my given name is the same as the headmistress's.
#that and I am (was) a university student and that's beneficial for the company#but the way she mentions it in evry phone call#and the fact that there's also a person at the reception desk with said name#you get me? how fucking funny is that?#anyways at this point I'm in this mess because 1) I feel a sense of duty towards my group#2) the pay's pretty decent#3) ehhhhhhh I might as well. whatever. indifference.

Got laid off by my current job. Suddenly and only with "staff cuts" as an explanation. Didn't work there even a full year.
Cool. Now I have to go job hunting a-fucking-gain, awesome.
#bluh bluh bluh#mmmmmm gotta love corporations#the worst thing is that the job was actually p good and the pay was decent#I got hired because my wife's friend recommended me there so I was lucky#(well plus I'm quick to learn new stuff and I'm very responsible and I was actually good at my job)#now I don't even know where to look for something like that#it's hard to find work without any connections - just by yourself#this sucks major ass tbh#but I think I'm okay... I think

i feel weird even claiming my family used to be considered "rich" bc a lot of yall immediately jump to having summer homes, 20 yachts, and enough money to save a country
#not gonna act like we weren't well off... ofc we were but like.... we werent on THAT level nearly at all#more of a country club... goes on a lot of vacations.... has a decently sized house with a pool... kinda rich#which is still rich dont get me wrong but i promise i wasnt living like fucking. kim kardashian or whatever ok#we didnt have a fuckin walk-in-fridge or 20 unused empty rooms#i say this bc ppl end up surprised when i tell them im not anymore like 'how' well its a lot of things like the housing market crash#my parents getting a divorce my dad being the one with the job that my moms dad gave to him that was making him all the money#and my grandpa passed not long after i was born so when they split up we were just going off of whatever he left really for a while#had to move etc etc.... now im low income and rely on food stamps and ssi ✌️ but thats mostly bc im disabled so#kinda necessarily low income bc the govt only wants to pay the very bare minimum that they can.#its also- not my money! i dont get to decide what happens to it and i dont get to decide i get nice things or whatever. that all hinges#on if my mom or gma wants to.#so technically even if you wanted to consider them rich still- its not part of me atp bc its not even my money and im an adult#whos not legally dependent on them anymore. i think it only counts if its *your* actual money or if your parent is okay with dishing#out like a 1000 dollars a month like its nothing. completely unfazed by giving it to you.#its not rich if its conditional ok like... children of rich parents arent rich and i will die on this hill. why do you think so many of the#end up fucked up? not only is it bc they've had ppl basically doing everything for them their whole life so they dont know how to take#care of themselves they're also entirely dependent on the parent for money. when you feel controlled like that- even if your parent isnt#necessarily abusive about it- just the fact everything you do hinges on the approval of your parent- kinda fucks you up and makes#you feel like you're stuck being a forever child. not great for people who probably want to go out in the world and date to feel#like you cant escape being dependent on your parents
