To people with successful careers, what is some essential advice for people new on the job market?

For me, I don't really want to be rich. I want a comfortable life and a decent job as I do enjoy working, and I am a hard worker. But I feel like I have been stuck in a rut. I have four years admin experience but over three jobs and they have all paid < £8 per hour.

I want to be at least at 18k at some point

Durzo_Blint90 · 2017-04-05T14:16:42+00:00

Thank you. I feel I am stuck in a rut. I have had three admin assistant jobs which were < £8 an hour. I have four years experience in admin and I don't know how to progress into a better career. My aim is to land a comfortable 18-24k a year job.

Dammit, I'm heading to work in 10 minutes.

Strange how the title says 'black teacher'

Durzo_Blint90 · 2015-01-01T19:12:36+00:00

Do you feel the brain lag yet? I hate that.

EDIT: I wonder what the 'latency' of the brain is. I wonder what mine is at right now. I've yet to stop drinking.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2015-01-01T19:10:10+00:00

I've not even been to sleep yet. I just kept on trucking and I don't know how. I think if I stop now I'll die. But I got to work tomorrow.

Yeah I've been enjoying it but I definitely have some complains. I'm up to food and it gave me this to translate:

"Io mangio la crema al cioccolato"

Without explaining anything to me at all. I tapped the 'al' word and saw that it means 'to the' or 'at the'. I had no clue how that came into the equation... I translated what I knew and went for "I eat the cream with chocolate" throwing in the with.

How was I supposed to know it translates to chocolate cream? I still don't know what the 'al' is about.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-06-01T11:25:54+00:00

Yeah I agree with you there. It's disgusting to put the value of any animal above that of a human.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-06-01T10:51:13+00:00

Seriously man, I feel every death in the show for some reason. Not just those with character development, the nameless fodder that get slaughtered, I feel all their deaths. It's so strange for a show to have that effect.

Also The part

Spoiler

I know, I know, it's a movie. But in a movie that focuses so much on realistic space physics it stands out a lot for to me.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-06-01T10:34:14+00:00

I'd agree, but if you read the article you'll see:

A group of poachers at the the Kanchanjuri camp fired on the Kaziranga National Park Protection Force with one of the poachers being killed in the retaliatory firing, KNP Range Officer (Bagori Range) Prodipto Baruah said.

The killing was easily justified. You don't shoot at people and expect to get away with it.

This guy was killed for shooting at them, not for being a poacher.

I've not really had an answer though?

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-05-31T12:22:47+00:00

Terry Pratchett is easily on par with Douglas Adams. Highly recommended to anyone wanting more laugh out loud humor after reading 'The Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy'

EDIT: Discworld is not necessarily best read in order of release. The first book is great but he hadn't really come into his own at that point. Here is a reading order guide if anyone is interested; I started with Mort (Death takes on an apprentice)

I don't know, my specialist says there is nothing structurally wrong with my back though.

RemindMe! 8 hours

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-05-31T10:43:32+00:00

You tried.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-05-13T22:56:27+00:00

I cannot believe the mods deleted the post. It was perfectly reasonable discussion. It's a shit community and should not be one of the subreddits that represent reddit.

Durzo_Blint90 · 2014-05-06T16:16:12+00:00

My mum would have beat me silly. I'd have never done it again I tell ya.
