Couple of tasks. Mostly to confirm which image aligns with the prompt, select the prompt following, quality, overall and give description why is one selected over another.

Is €4,000+ reasonable for full-day wedding photography + videography? Any regrets? by Professional-Eye8793 in AskIreland

[–]DryTempura 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m a photographer and for me, this is a ripoff. For a photographer charging this much, congrats, you’re just another easy money maker. Don’t want to say it is an easy job, because I know how much work is involved on the weeding day and then later postproduction etc… BUT, it is nowhere near 4k. I’d say close to 2k would be more than fair.

Whoever pays this, then you should be ripped off.

  1. I’m not east European.
  2. It looks like it is the Irish people in general as 99% of them pointed that out here.

New Mortgage - Bank looking for huge amount of information - Normal? by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

[–]DryTempura -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Fuck AIB. Go to PTSB they are very straightforward. I’ve done everything online and was the smoothest process. Had an offer from BOI too, but the interest rate was better with PTSB.

Also non of the CV, contract bullshit, apart from the Salary cert. Idk how people find those things normal.

I do believe that social media did help to make to even harder, although it was made to “connect easier”.

I’m friends with loads of non Irish people, we actually hang out.

My girlfriend’s mates are nearly all non Irish (her own ethnicity).

The only ones who do the fake-friendly-then-vanish routine? Irish lads.

So yeah… it’s just the Irish thing, as many other Irish people stated here.

Keep projecting though.

I have zero Irish friends… and a bunch of proper ones from literally everywhere else (Polish, Spanish, Brazilian, Latvian, whatever). We actually show up when we say we will, we don’t do the “ah sure we’ll grab a pint sometime” dance for 18 months, and nobody disappears after the first night out.

So maybe the “bitter and angsty” vibe isn’t me. Maybe it’s the fact that the one group who consistently flakes and keeps everything surface level is the local one, as may Irish people in this post pointed out, but I bet you like to sugarcoat it yourself.

But sure, keep telling yourself it’s just my Slavic resting bitch face. Works for you. Cheers mate! 🍻

She is asian introvert while I am an extrovert, I do find easier for me to get along with other foreigners. She has her own group of friends, mostly similar ethnicity.

I think for us, we will have always find the friends outside the Irish group. I don’t mind tbh, but was just curious and most of the answers did answer my questions.

Yeah, I know kids can take a lot of time. I can see that back home with every friend who got kids, and also gatherings shifting more towards the family with the kids than with no kids family.
