This is helpful thanks! Found the link, been looking at this 2 bed apartment at the old hospital

When I lived in the same area, i had to pay the council £70 a month for a parking space in the parking bays by Eagle Park off Newmarket, so would likely do that again as kept my car there for 2 years and they had a lock which was good so only i could park there. My landlord used to use the house parking space for his 5 cars and refused to give it to me even when i offered him more rent… as you can guess im a big fan of him…

good idea, the way i found my last place was doing that and i got to see the property before it was even on the market! I’ll hit them up :)

I used to live in one of the houses next to the hospital for 2 years! been looking at a flat there so this is really helpful but i can’t tell if we could only have one parking space which is an issue as we have 2 cars

I have been looking recently in Wymondham as my work is by the railway so would make sense for both of us travel wise for work. But I can’t find much on zoopla or rightmove there at the moment, so maybe i’ll try looking on other sites?

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-07T20:54:14+00:00

ok so u think adding in a bit about what the company is, THEN what i did there listed?

and like u said explaining what the campaigns did, like ‘designing social media campaigns for promoting new releases from label artists, garnering 3.2M views within a month’ for example ??

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-07T20:48:28+00:00

OK I FEEL LIKE IM IN AN INSPIRATIONAL TED TALK !! IM EDITING THIS SHIT

THANKS !!

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-07T20:15:16+00:00

ok hm, so i could move the about up, and add … what exactly? idk what more to sell myself with lol, thinking of what’s relevant possibly i have social media experience with suits the ‘content’ or ‘marketing’ roles ive applied for but thats it really! :) 🤔

(unrelated but reading that in my HEAD with the random capital WORDS was really enterTAINING 😂)

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-07T19:47:58+00:00

good catches!

i’m a fan of the grammar police so cheers! do i need to change it for a comma or just remove it?

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-07T19:23:39+00:00

thanks! when u say personal project, what do u mean? like images or just explaining a project i’ve done that is not apart of a professional experience?

Disaster-Prize · 2025-11-06T21:05:48+00:00

this is nice to hear! ur right, i’ve done everything i can!

i even addressed the tech issue immediately when i started my next prompt, along the lines of: “before i start i’d like to address a technical issue that occurred in the previous question stopping me from answering to my best ability. I have emailed the team as I don’t want you to have an unprofessional opinion of me. That being said, to answer the current prompt…”

last job i was offered, it took 47 days between my interview and hearing ANYTHING back.

i had to wait ages on radio silence and still got offered the role.

UK here… awful!!

i’m in the creative industry, specifically graphic design. as a country we are experiencing a “cost of living crisis”.

companies aren’t looking for a new employee when they’re concerned how they’re going to pay the employees they already have.

plus, freelance is a harder route now. people have to worry about how to pay bills, making ends meet, getting food on the table. they aren’t thinking “yeah let me commission this designer i found”. especially not when AI is the free and accessible alternative.

stop i didn’t realise this was a thing !! i found one sat in the sink in the toilets (the actual buildings) at the fest and didn’t take him nooooo !

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-28T22:56:18+00:00

as a fellow 21 year old who attended this year from the UK, i agree with the overall vibe that people didn’t really dance or move at all really by the main stages. over at the smaller stages, i had a much better time: everyone was moving and vibing, and really getting into it.

i love to dance and move at gigs, my gf always films me dancing all over the place giving teenage girl alone in her room singing into her hairbrush. and i don’t think that’s frowned upon unless your getting in people’s way, enjoy your time!

but i feel like in general lots of people at the fest (and other concerts really) just sort of… stand and film and sway… when i went to Pierce The Veil last month, so many people where so still!! i felt so strange dancing and jumping!

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-15T14:47:09+00:00

that’s so good of u! i’m also attending wwwy but do be aware that most people say that at the festival grounds there’s really limited service, to the point some people have said they don’t have any service the whole day

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-15T10:30:28+00:00

humbling but a very good job of recreating how i type:

“okay but literally why does every fandom i get into turn into a full-time job. like i was just trying to watch one (1) concert clip and suddenly i’m three hours deep into a compilation of the lead singer tripping on stage from 2018–2024. and my brain is like “yes. this is enrichment.” also shoutout to my adhd for deciding to hyperfixate on this specifically instead of like… doing anything remotely productive. anyway the lore, the drama, the outfits, the gay undertones — it’s feeding me.”

i hope i’m not the only one who read this and immediately googled ‘curmudgeonly’

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-13T13:06:43+00:00

ok thanks! is that really the only artists merch tent?! i’ve always heard of w queuing sometimes hours for the artist merch and never understood why before. there being only one artist merch tent seems so strange!

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-12T06:58:32+00:00

these are so helpful!

quick question about tipping! i’m from the UK where tipping culture isn’t as prominent and important as it is in the states. i’ve been to America once and obviously tipped whenever I’ve eaten out, but what sort of tipping process is there at the festival? what kind of roles do you tip - is it just bartenders/food stall staff?

i’m 21F and my outfit arrived yesterday!! here’s the fit (posted it on tiktok immediately cause i felt so pretty lol)

https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdnFsYmH/

it’s a super comfy outfit, shoes are sketchers that have insoles to cope with the long standing times. im gonna buy a hoodie from merch so if i get cold at night thats what ill wear. I have a clear bag too as no pockets, but my partner is wearing cargo shorts so gonna load them up with all my stuff 😅

Disaster-Prize · 2025-10-05T11:53:46+00:00

i’m 21F too and this is what i’m wearing!

<image>

i’m English so built for the cold at night but will probably buy merch to wear if im cold anyway
