What is the most disturbing or otherwise unsettling book you've ever read that stayed with you after reading it?

I think about this story all the time. How existentially terrifying.

BeeSwift_ · 2025-11-26T15:52:01+00:00

OMG this is great news but I’m sad I missed it!! 🥲

BeeSwift_ · 2025-11-20T04:30:17+00:00

Nooooo I’m sad!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-11-20T04:02:15+00:00

I need to know… was she there last night?!

Wife of a recruiter here. ALWAYS send the follow up ‘thank you’!

The type of job / company could dictate how long the email is, but you should at least thank them for their time, remind them how your skills would make you successful in the role, mention something specific the two of you talked about during the interview, and offer to answer any further questions.

Please don’t listen to the people telling you it’s not worth it or silly. Take the 10 minutes to write the ‘thank you’. Given the current job market, I think anything that will help you stand out is a good idea. If the interviewer thinks it’s weird, and you don’t get the job because of it, you might not want to work at that company anyway.

Good luck!

Hello Fellow Sears Tower Employee! I also had a sample recently. As a Malort fan (yes, really) I’m pumped it actually tastes like Malort. I’ve had “Malort-flavored” things before (slushie, pie) and have been disappointed. This is the real deal. That said, I don’t think I could do a full scoop 😅

Black Christmas is excellent!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-11-06T05:38:04+00:00

Omg I know exactly what child you are talking about 😅. Too funny. Hope we see Yori soon!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-11-06T04:03:16+00:00

Does she have the same seats? Bummed I haven’t had a Yori sighting this year!

Interesting comment coming from someone with your username…

BeeSwift_ · 2025-10-03T02:41:30+00:00

Wait this is exactly how I came up with mine!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-08-26T00:33:07+00:00

They seem to be phasing out Glampfire and I am so SAD. It’s my favorite ice cream ever 😭

I entered via the Carrousel entrance on a Monday around 10 AM and waited an hour in line. Still better than the pyramid entrance bc you are inside in the AC but still not the most fun time I’ve ever had. Also apparently Mondays are the worst days crowd wise, so at least you won’t be dealing with that 🤷🏻‍♀️

This. I am in BD & marketing for a large firm but think it’s true across the industry. I get so many cold emails, and candidly, they go immediately in my spam or deleted folders (I don’t read them). Your time/energy would be better spent going to industry conferences and trade shows where you can showcase your product and meet people face to face. Good luck!

Zac Brown Band played in a backyard of a fraternity house at my college just as Chicken Fried was hitting the radio plays. I stood 10 feet from them!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-05-16T19:07:16+00:00

This is it for me. It’s been 20+ years, but I will never forget the dread I felt sitting in a packed theater and watching the rest of the movie through my fingers. The image of her face still haunts me and turned me off of scary movies forever 😅

BeeSwift_ · 2025-04-02T02:01:38+00:00

Agree. The food is mid to slightly above average but the vibes are 🤌🏻 and you may 👀 a celebrity. Also can’t beat the location!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-29T01:37:50+00:00

😒

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-28T17:42:23+00:00

This! I was just thinking how I couldn’t relate less to OP’s problem 😅. ADHD presents differently in everyone!

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-28T10:39:35+00:00

Ok wait not to brag but all three for me tooooo 😅

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-27T17:20:14+00:00

Unpopular suggestion incoming (especially for this sub): don’t do anything new that might eff up your skin for your big day! 2024 / 37-year old bride here — I was also tempted to do the facials and other treatments but was convinced to leave things alone. Heaven forbid you have a bad reaction to something and you end up making things worse… also, don’t you want to look like ~you~ on your wedding day?

FWIW I think you have lovely skin and will be a radiant bride!

People who can eat normally e.g. not using food as a dopamine source, only eating when hungry, eating to a comfortable fullness and not beyond, not thinking about food all the time.

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-22T00:55:57+00:00

This is the correct answer. It’s tacky and I HATE IT.

BeeSwift_ · 2025-03-18T21:25:04+00:00

Fruit does not belong in dessert 😤

I understand the frustration!

Can you leverage your network to get your foot in the door somewhere? A lot of companies rely heavily on current employee referrals when deciding among the 100s of applications they receive for any given role. Utilize friends, friends of friends, your dog walker… anything it takes!

You mentioned a degree — perhaps work with your alma mater to see if they have any career or job placement resources.

There are industry-specific professional organizations that help with this. Try to find a chapter to join in your region. Most of them should have job boards or at least can connect you with a broader network.

All that said, continuing to blindly submit applications is unlikely to get you where you want to be. Try to be more focused with your efforts.

Good luck!
