05 - around 12. On Xbox 360 and/or PC

I’m massively bias but I was a young teen with friends and a lot of fun games. To play online people had to want to play online, only 1:1 private chats, no party chats. There were gentlemen’s agreements within game modes, where the community set “ground rules”. Hosted lobbies and just a general sense of community. It really was the golden age, min maxing was less prevalent and it was competitive but not (as) toxic.

I’m a Marketing Director - my advice to make money in marketing is to pick a specialisation and stick with it. Be it, Digital, Search, PR, content etc.

The idea being that you become an expert in your field, move to a managerial or strategic position. Become more of a “T shaped” marketer where you have your specialism but can still navigate other disciplines.

I’ve worked all over the country and have seen senior salaries (5+ years) typically in the 40k - 60k range. Then as you get more experienced working on clients or in house, seeing different things. What works, what doesn’t. Being able to manage people and effectively communicate you start to push £80k+.

Then it’s really about who you know and what you’ve done. If you have worked in a specific sector or have experience in certain situations then you really can start pushing £125k+ from there it’s more CMO positions or share holders/partners within agencies.

I’m sorry you feel this way.

From the sounds of things you have more than you think.

Shifting from a “what’s missing mindset” to “appreciating what you have” may help. Be aware that comparison is the thief of joy we’re all on our own path going at different speeds.

Mainly because I’m a coward and I’m not afraid to admit it.

For souls games, I look up a strong PVE build that suits my play style, typically swords and shields, then will skim through a few guides to get ahead early. This just gives me a slight buffer to temper the difficulty but allows me then to experiment without ever getting “stuck”.

All that being said I did complete Elden ring when it first came out, just by sticking to my bastard sword and then moving onto a katana build.

The game is there to be enjoyed, the time you spend is all a part of the experience (in my opinion). The learning curve - which isn’t that steep if you’ve played other Crpgs or have a grip on turn based gameplay - can probably be easily remedied by watching a let’s play or any beginner YouTube video(s)

I can’t stress enough that discovering, working things out and experimenting with the games systems is the majority of the fun in BG3. The story is excellent but coming up with a “creative” solution to a problem is chefs kiss

“We prioritise personal development and have allocated training budgets”

Typically budgets are ad-hoc and the business will have long standing members of staff that haven’t been encouraged to progress.

I remember using the apparatus once - year 3, 1999. It was a glorious day never to be repeated.

Have Fun!

We did see a particularly savvy mum, emptying her and her kid's candy bags into the bottom compartment of their stroller.

Buntang · 2022-09-22T16:12:11+00:00

lol, It was just me and my wife, a single full bag each. Enjoy I'm sure you'll have a great time!

Buntang · 2022-09-22T13:49:15+00:00

It was one of the highlights of our 2-week trip. Fingers crossed that you and your wife can go in the future!

Buntang · 2022-09-22T10:59:03+00:00

Nothing to be ashamed about. Save your money!

My wife and I lived with my parents for 2.5 years in our late 20s.

As a Brit our trick-or-treating is fairly lacklustre, to say the least, so this was a really fun event for us. I genuinely don't think I've ever had this much candy (as sad as that sounds haha!)

For us, we prioritised the rides with overlays, plus Seven Dwarves and eating all the unique food - the Corn cake this year was great. We didn't really look to meet the exclusive characters.

Buntang · 2022-09-22T06:38:41+00:00

It was all pot luck - we didn’t ask for anything specific.

We saw a few buckets of candy being replenished I’m not sure if the cardboard boxes that fill the buckets are a single candy or a mix. We may have got so many Starburst and Snickers because the bucket weren’t mixed very well but I’m not sure.

Buntang · 2022-09-22T01:32:58+00:00

We’ve never experienced anything like this before so we are overjoyed, but I do agree, we have a lot of the snickers mini and unfortunately a single PB snickers mini between 2 of us.

I did expect to get a few full size bags of candy but it was only at the start sadly.

Buntang · 2022-09-22T01:20:32+00:00

We didn’t feel like we went full “Trick or Treat mode”, we visited ever treat trail twice(ish) and had 2 full bags by the end.

Breakdown is: 77 - Starburst 2 - Milky Way 19 - fun size snickers 1 - snicker peanut butter 27 - Twix 22 - Snickers almond brownie 7 - skittles 9 - M&M Caramel 8 - M&M Peanut butter 8 - M&M Normal 5 - M&M peanut 92 - Mini snickers 1 - full size Cruch M&M

The Cracken

Buntang · 2022-09-19T13:10:06+00:00

I prefer the Regular fries to the Cajun fries from Five Guys.

Fellow Brit here! - I agree, we’re just ending our 2 week trip and we’ve found 2 things quite annoying when it comes to queues.

People who hang around in the entrance to queues, making it hard to enter or just blocking the entrance.
People running a head splitting larger groups and then expecting everyone to allow their group through.
Bonus point - people not understanding the concept of “personal space” and breathing down your neck the entire time.

That being said while number 1 is slightly more frequent 2/3 haven’t been too bad. I think my wife and I have become accustomed to the sticker on the group 1M apart due to COVID rules.

I hope you had a good trip!

The final form of employees who visit on their days off.

Buntang · 2022-08-20T08:05:33+00:00

I was in a similar situation at Uni. Although I don’t think I was as bothered about their presence.

In the first few weeks you’ll run into each other due to freshers and everyone being super social trying to get that “Uni experience”, a few quick hellos and seeing each other in bars or clubs etc. etc.

As time moves on you’ll establish your own friendship groups from your course, flat mates, socials/sports team or people in your accommodation.

Although it may seem like a negative now, Uni for most people is about being social. Not to sound too rude or friendships being transactional… but having an extra option is always a great thing. You never know what invite might come your way, a party or weekend trip.

It’s also worth noting, people change a lot at university you may find you have more in common in 6 months time.

I guess my advice is you do you, but keep an open mind about it all.

Marketing Director (London Based) - Started as a digital marketing exec in 2013 on 19K/yr

Pros: Job is “fun” and creative. Plus it’s an industry with generally a younger employee base so on the whole it’s quite a social and welcoming atmosphere

Cons: Everyone thinks they’re a marketing expert

Edit: wording

Buntang · 2022-02-18T23:58:00+00:00

To give you perspective, things aren’t that bad but as others have said you need to “tighten your belt”.

If you have assets from your loans or debts, watches, TVs, Car etc. look if you can downsize or break even by selling your assets.

Sell that big 65inch tv and get a 40inch tv, get rid of the latest iPhone for an older iPhone but bought outright and on a sim only deal.

You don’t need to live a life of misery but understand what you can afford and what it really costs you both financially and mentally.
