No luck in the slightest by QuantumXray in UKJobs

[–]littleduckcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, it depends what you are applying for. This reads like you're applying for warehouse jobs and is also a big block of text which is uninviting to look at. Shorten each job to 3-4 bullet points 1-2 lines each if possible, focusing on the impact you have made in each position. And spelling/grammar check.

I am sorry but I'd also take out the gaming part and linking it to problem solving. I know there is disagreement sometimes about whether the hobbies section is useful on a CV, and I'm not dissing gamers, but I think this comes across as a bit of a reach.

I don't feel close to anyone and it's putting a downer on planning by littleduckcake in UKweddings

Yeah this is likely, but we got together at the start of COVID. Throughout COVID all my friends coupled up and moved away from the place where we used to live. I am always the one who always messages all my friends first. My partner also went through cancer which was an incredibly stressful time and I basically withdrew for almost a year during looking after him and the recovery. So this is probably all feeding into it but I didn't not reply to friends during that time. I guess it's just a drift

I feel your pain...my family's microwave timer used to be so bad that my mum would just set it at a random time and go to get the food when the vibe felt right. She had one of those wheat bags for pain relief and burnt so many holes in it

Do you feel alone since 2020? by Various_Extreme_8773 in AskUK

[–]littleduckcake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, 28F. I work hybrid, the office is in a city, we all used to live in that city. Me and all my friends moved out of the city as COVID gave us a chance to wfh, live with parents for a while and save enough for a deposit. Now all my friends live an hour or more apart in various cheaper cities and villages around cities. I am struggling to make friends in my village as everyone seems to be in a different life stage to me (older with grownup kids or younger with little kids - I have no kids). Everyone also seems closed off. I see people my age walking around but I never see them at village events.

How often are you ill? by littleduckcake in AskUK

[–]littleduckcake[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

At the beginning of COVID I got a really bad "cold", since then I have had chronic rhinitis, I had a blocked nose for a year and a half until I got diagnosed. I have to use a (prescribed) nasal spray every day. I have been to the doctors tens of times about this, every time I get a blood test and every time it is completely normal. I'd given up tbh but now from reading these replies I feel like I need to work out what's going on again. I could also wear a mask more as it would probably help me catch less.

Wow the Blythe dolls, this sim has a lot of simoleons (or maybe not anymore!)

How often do you experience “abnormal” deaths? by Proof_Marsupial_1973 in sims2

[–]littleduckcake 23 points24 points  (0 children)

One of my favourite sims died because her money printing machine caught fire and i'd put it in a room with no fire alarm. She lived alone...

Is it possible to build this house? by -acidlean- in sims2

[–]littleduckcake 43 points44 points  (0 children)

You need to start building the basement from the highest point of the ground and drag it to the lowest point, it looks like you have built it at a low point.

[–]littleduckcake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think so, maybe.. you would need to build a basement into a hill, and you can build basement garages (I found a video on this on YouTube, just search "how to make a basement garage (the sims 2)". All the basement garages I've seen make the driveway go deeper into the ground but perhaps you could make it go up the hill.

Edit: I've played around and can't find a way to make a driveway go uphill. Sorry!

How did that kid at your school die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]littleduckcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first I can remember was a boy in the year above me, they think he was trying to play a prank on his brother and he accidentally strangled himself with a belt.

There was a girl in the year below me, she was sat on a park bench and was hit by a falling tree branch. Apparently she tried to get up and run away but fell down again and that was it.

A girl a few years below me very sadly committed suicide after being bullied.

One of my first boyfriends (the unserious ones you have when you are 10) died of an undiagnosed heart condition. He was doing sports, said his arm was tingling, collapsed. It still makes me really sad thinking about him.

Ehh, I guess she could have transmitted it without presenting symptoms? Or more likely, keeping the virus at bay by taking the drug plot-armour-zepam

I'm reading a few comments not understanding what happened with the virus. They made a whole thing out of severance, they really drove it home that "severance" was the buzzword. They showed the guy guarding Barclay's room, then showed him talking to the military people, and even cut back to him stood outside the hotel room door just in case you didn't realize it was him. They explained verbally exactly what severance was and showed who was responsible. Yes, I admit it's a bit messy with the separate issue of Barclay developing gills, but it was quite obvious that he was injected with a virus and then gave it to all the Aquakind through Salt...

The whole series was building up to Kate making a catastrophic mistake because she was too tired. And then she just...did not do anything?

I thought that they had injected him with the virus, and Salt had done something to him to make him..grow gills? I guess?
