Good :) thanks for asking!
There will be an assignment and a second interview to discuss said assignment. Then hopefully get hired :))
Trying not to be too hyped in the mean time but I’m really manifesting this so hard rn
Dutch healthcare system
Oef ja.
Succes 🙏
Job interview tomorrow weeeeeee 😊😊
It’s at a software development company that one of my best friends works at so I got an easy leg up and kind of just lucked into the easiest application process I’ve ever experienced. Fingers crossed besties 🤞
Omg so cool that you’re doing this!!
Any particular reason for it or did you just want to prove to yourself that you could?
Is the pride flag coming on the trip with you? 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇳🇱
During annihilation I felt like the plot was in just the right spot between answering and not answering the questions that arose in me, so I’m fine if the series continues like that.
One of us, one of us
Sorry to hear that 😔
Hopefully all heals well and you get to lift again in the future 🙏
Read annihilation in like 3 days last week! Whew what a story!
I borrowed it from a friend so now I’m debating buying the rest of the trilogy (and risk having only books 2 and 3 on the shelf, which I also did with three body problem and that gap is Staring At Me Daily™)
Also still looking for a job but I’m deciding to ignore the recruiters for now. They honestly haven’t done much for me at all and in the end have just been a waste of time.
I’m just going to do applications by myself because tbh I’m perfectly capable of that. I’ve received really good feedback from some positions where I didn’t make the cut, so I’m feeling confident enough. Just keep on grinding.
Theres one position I’m excited about though - my friend referred me so that’s an easy way to make a good first impression and I did indeed have a great first talk this morning :). Fingers crossed!
Final item: went to see the borderlands film yesterday, very impromptu because some out of town friends happened to come see it at a cinema close to my house. Was fun to see them and the film was uhhhh ok, definitely not good but at least I’m excited to play borderlands again 😂
Yayyyyyy dune! Which book are you at right now?
Hehe we do a little scraping
What’s mull?
Trying my best to find a new job asap so that I can actually take 1 or 2 weeks of summer vacation instead of just stressing over applications.
Also my cat is getting surgery today to have his upper front teeth removed because they were infecting (and already had been before). The vet said it’s best to just remove them altogether because he won’t really miss them anyway and can eat fine without. Worried about my little guy but I’m sure he’ll be okay ❤️
he should be ok to be picked up in about 4 hours yay :)
Also, great opportunity to air out the apartment hehe
Edit:
Cat is okay yay! He’s completely zonked out on painkillers lol
That’s how it feels. They don’t deserve me though 💅
Not great! What was supposed to be a regular biweekly update with my team lead turned into me hearing I’m being let go. The company is dissolving my position. Apparently because they believe everything I did to set up data pipelines and structures is so solid they just need someone to maintain it now (which will be a third party).
I definitely saw myself working there for a few years, now I’m back to looking for a job after just 1 year. Feels unfair and all the ‘it’s not personal, we love you as a colleague’ is definitely not helping at all.
At least I won’t have to come out to them which I was dreading… I’ll just introduce myself with new pronouns at the next job ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Back to the LinkedIn hellscape it is
Edit: forgot to mention that the worst part of this to me is definitely this week where we’re still discussing details/severance etc. and I can’t tell my direct colleagues yet. So here I am pretending everything is fine and I’m not actually super depressed about it until I can finally tell them next Tuesday.
There was a premium lite for 7 bucks but they discontinued it in October as part of their ‘fuck all yall’ campaign
Thanks for sharing! I’ll give it a go :)
Good on ya! I’m really considering it as well. I’ve never liked windows 11 and I basically only use my desktop for gaming anyway, so I really should consider doing the same. I guess I’m just lazy and afraid I might lose game/steam compatibility? Anything you can share regarding that?
On my honeymoon :3 (missing our cat so much we are god’s strongest soldiers)
Been reading my fancy gold-green-and-black edition of the cthulhu mythos tales. Some crazy stuff in there. I’m glad I’m finally taking the time to read it after sitting on thus for some 6 years.
Also second interview on Friday for the job I really want, then my bestie’s birthday party afterwards 🎉
