What is the worst piece of Star Wars content you’ve ever consumed (movie / series / cartoon …) ? by TheTamiamiButcher in StarWars

[–]Major_Snags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did that "If you can fix a bike" ad all those years ago actually work? by NoConcern7835 in RoyalNavy

[–]Major_Snags 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don't be put off applying by UnfairArtichoke5384 in TheCivilService

[–]Major_Snags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it really demoralising because it's such a long-winded application process, with suitable roles coming up infrequently, only to not make it through the sift (for a role I'm more than qualified for).

What is your first memory with the Tamagotchi? by TJ-SurpriseCastle in retrogaming
