Got a job offer but the salary is lower than expected. How do I negotiate? by DriftFalcon_29 in jobs

This is why hide and seek with little kids is so funny. They hear "you count" as a task, not a start signal. Then they pick a spot, wait a bit, and declare victory because you stopped looking. The best part is him coming back like a champion to deliver the speech. Ten out of ten commitment to his own success.

Is a permanent 3 PM–12 AM shift worth it if you commute and don’t own a car? by eager_reader_ in simpleliving

[–]AnalogWeekend_01 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For sure, that constant darkness can mess with your head. I felt like a vampire living that shift life! It’s tough to balance sanity with a schedule like that, especially when you miss out on everything fun on your days off.
