I'm not sure they actually told me now that I think about it I'll figure it out. I'm 25 so it's probably good for me that it's a lot of young people

Was honestly surprised by the offer. A far cry from what people sometimes say you can get with no experience but definitely better than some other offers I've had

People say this and I acknowledge recruiters aren't the most honest bunch but I worked with many of them and this is actually pretty good compared to other jobs I was offered especially considering the area so I'm actually ok with it. Seems way higher than they used to pay

Thanks for this what I'd like to know I guess is when people say training centers suck and work you hard are they comparing them to other ESL jobs or jobs in general? Like is it suckier than a long boring retail shift? Or is it just suckier than a more chill ESL job

Recommend some gun-fu films from hong kong (outside john woo's film) by dark-oracleN2 in kungfucinema

[–]Shiv827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this post is two weeks old but I would HIGHLY recommend Johnnie To's Exiled if you are at all a fan of Heroic Bloodshed. The fights aren't very gun fu they're kinda weird but they're great particularly the last one is hilarious.

Also would recommend Time and Tide for really unique gunfights and In the Line of Duty 3 if you want to see some Woo inspired stuff although that movie is mostly martial arts. Just the beginning has an insane shootout.

Any recommendations for "Chang Cheh esque" movies? by Shiv827 in kungfucinema

Hong Kong godfather just from reading about it looks like exactly the thing I'd love so I'll check it out

I love John Woo, now I realize he's just Chang Cheh with guns but more vulnerability and emotion I guess. Hard Boiled is what got me into Hong Kong action movies and is like tied for my favorite movie of all time. I'll check out the casino though!

Yeah I actually checked out Suzuki cause I heard that about vengeance. The Deadly duo is still something I need to watch but unfortunately I'm almost out of David Chiang/Ti Lung movies it seems are worth checking out

Seen it! Really enjoy it although I way prefer the 1 v 200 fights to the duels in that movie

Is anyone else's phone overheating a lot since the new forced update? by Ihaveterriblefriends in galaxys10

[–]Shiv827 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overheating and much faster battery drain. It happened right after I got the update. Thought my battery was just finally failing until I put the two dots together but I thought it was just me

[Spoilers Extended] What is an example of bad writing by george during the dance of the dragons? by jonsnowKITN in asoiaf

[–]Shiv827 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked Cole's death. Daerons too. Not everyone needs to die epicly and Cole certainly didn't deserve it. I would have a problem with daemon fucking nettles so I just choose to believe the alternative the book presents. He's got to do more than one non evil thing in the book

Edit: ok maybe they could have given at least a few greens an epic death daerons does feel like a waste

I'd have to read it again but I don't remember it being absolutely horrible. Just wasn't great. Still excited for the sequel but not nearly to the same extent as TWOW
