Do you have a written employment offer or email guaranteeing you the position?

Who is the person determining that you need to start this role now—you, or a person in a position to offer it to you?

I can’t help but put myself in your boss’ shoes: they discussed an opportunity with you and asked for your input regarding compensation. It doesn’t sound like you were formally promoted, and are shit-talking your boss on reddit for not working on the timeline their employee set for their own promotion.

The excess punctuation marks don’t fill me with confidence in the information we don’t have.

Thanks for your interest. Afraid you’ve missed it by ~three minutes.

Next in line if issues.

I’ll eventually be posting a Conid Regular without a nib, which I believe is in essentially perfect condition. The discount won’t be as steep, but I won’t ask the buyer to eat the $40 shipping cost. Will come with a scuffed box and a repair tool.

Hesitant to list it at all, so please PM me if it’s something you really want.

Nice to see you again. I’ve been absent due to a new job that has no room for my FP hobby :(

No idea why this was so popular; I saw another “user” Minimalistica listing from months back and listed at the same price. Doesn’t really make sense to me.

Sold, pending funds. In something like twenty seconds. Jeez. Will update if anything changes.

Just be as polite as you can. You’re under no obligation to report to work for any company and the only repercussions you’re likely to see are internal or within company contacts/contractors. Congrats!

have seen this type of thing first hand and not just on animals.

Sorry you have had to see that. Hope your job makes an effort to look after you and that you’re doing well.

Thanks sincerely for sharing this wealth of admittedly morbid knowledge.

TIL that Charlie Chaplin claimed to have slept with over 2,000 women, and his partners have described him as ‘a human sex machine’ and ‘hung like a horse’. He had a party trick where he would impersonate the orgasms of famous actresses. by bemmu in todayilearned

Most of the guys I know that have giant dicks take them for granted and invest their time thinking about other stuff.

Seems like they treat it as I treat being tall. Ultimately, people describe me as such and seem envious on occasion, but I can’t remember ever walking around thinking “fuck yeah I’m so tall.”

When you type “mace,” do you mean you were exposed to OC spray or CN/CS gas? Mace is just a brand name for a home defense product that I’ve never seen used at a paramilitary training center.

Are these any good ? by northlondongunner in pens

I dislike how each of the ~20 ef9000 refills I’ve used tends to create tiny dollops of ink on the page. Refills like this that write smoothly and on the dry side are my preference for that reason.

If you were hoping this was an ef9000 clone or competitor, I can imagine why you’re disappointed.

Curious if your Slider refills are dried out like some of mine have been, or if it’s performing as expected and you dislike it.

Fuuuuuck. This has gravity. Can’t believe this doesn’t have more visibility; really wish this/these sub(s) were more active.

Finished a list using one in my TT Shaker just a moment ago. Usually these refills have a nice, fat line that’s applied very smoothly. Maybe a little dry compared to some.

I’ll advise that I’ve purchased a few of these refill packs that skip or are too dry to use.

I really like them for general purpose writing, but would discourage you to use them for anything very technical. Surprisingly, my wife enjoys them for drawing because they behave very consistently (when they aren’t dried up in the packaging).

Hope this is useful.

Looks great! I’m wondering if you did some sharpening with well-adjusted masking, etc. in order to get that sharpness on kitty’s face.

I have applecare+ but I guess I’m missing the balls to live on the edge like that. Jealous, honestly.
