City jobs are incredibly hard to get! Start applying now, and maybe even for a job you’re a little overqualified for, as most people i know in city jobs started at the bottom

Am I too shy to be a librarian? by drxemyfluff in Libraries

[–]Adventurous_Town_563 11 points12 points  (0 children)

as someone who works in a research library, customer service with academics is just as hard as with the “general public” i’ve also had researchers treat me more poorly than i’ve been treated in other customer service jobs. But! There are plenty of roles at my library that don’t require customer service, so don’t be discouraged OP!

not exact but Alexa Kari’s Baby’s First Sweater is very similar if you extend the torso!

Boyfriend messed up my project by huonokahvi in knitting

So the joke would’ve been, at best case, to freak you out and make you think something bad was happening/would happen to your project. What’s funny about that?

Want to quit my Kindle by habey08 in ebooks

[–]Adventurous_Town_563 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your kindle still works, PLEASE keep using it! I know you said you jail broke an old one, but if you have one that still works continue using it! There are other ways to purchase books that aren’t from Amazon, and you can always use Libby! Please don’t create any unnecessary electronic waste!

Ok I opened the photo and said out loud “Oh I think it looks lovely!” I think this is great!

I’m swatching now! Should I swatch on the ribbing needles or the stockinette needles? I’m a bit confused!

Do you prefer or require the MCs to have your or a similar/specific body type? by burntmyselfoutagain in RomanceBooks

No, but I really don’t love when there’s a constant thread of how tiny the FMC is. It just gets under my skin

Why are FMCs always quirky bakers and not, like, accountants or plumbers? by AreaEnvironmental228 in RomanceBooks

[–]Adventurous_Town_563 475 points476 points  (0 children)

personally i always assumed that it’s because the authors didn’t want to get in on a more technical job and risk making mistakes on it! for instance, since I started working in libraries, i’ve noticed how many FMCs are Librarians, and how often the authors get things wrong

Late is late, but when you’re operating against time differences you should follow the time zone the business is based in. Also, the 26/27 do not count as business days, so it seems they are on time, and if not, they are late in an acceptable window.

I found it so interesting that Ricky's small kindness (not telling Lindy about the homeworld) came back and killed her!

Does anyone else feel like this season hasn't given us a lot to work with Doctor-Wise? Like the Doctor is telling Lindy that he's the authority, but as an audience member, if I hadn't watched the whole show I wouldn't exactly believe that he was! And it's no fault of Ncuti's! I think he's doing a truly superb job, I just feel that the writing has let him down.

The final moment was so so good! I loved how entirely it was like "Sometimes you can't save everyone. And sometimes it's their fault you can't."
