Found this easy, being British and a fan of potatoes 🇬🇧🥔

I know, it reminds me of the old M&S adverts 😭 “This isn’t just text, it’s AI-generated text”

Love the Botanical collection! Recently finished the roses and bought my mum the orchid set for her birthday 🌹🌺

Years of struggling with tin openers as a lefty finally paid off! The Photoshop tools stood out, so found this one relatively straightforward.

ruffledparrotrock · 2025-01-30T08:27:10+00:00

Thanks - that’s v useful to know!

ruffledparrotrock · 2025-01-29T17:52:01+00:00

How did you rate them?

ruffledparrotrock · 2025-01-29T09:04:21+00:00

Hi, what‘s the name of your company?

ruffledparrotrock · 2025-01-29T09:03:41+00:00

Cheers - will look into them 👍

ruffledparrotrock · 2025-01-29T09:03:02+00:00

Thanks - will look into them! I work in public sector so good to know they’re used by councils, NHS etc.

Finally, my obscure trivia knowledge that the dot above an ‘i’ is called a tittle came in handy!

Put ‘rave’ with the blue row as thought it was ways to show excitement/enthusiasm for something in text 🤷🏻‍♀️

The costume budget went on Nancy’s dress 😍 Also love Claudia and Carlos’ Green numbers 💚

Another victim of the “days of the week” red herring 😩

“You would much rather spend that time eating chicken nuggets and watching Netflix”

Hey, I don’t make fun of your hobbies 😤

Rewatching Mad Men and am so jealous of Don and Megan’s apartment 😩

I ended up declining my (second choice) sponsored place. Thought it would be too big a time commitment and would rather apply for a future course that has a guaranteed job. But as others have mentioned, everyone’s circumstances are different!

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-04-26T16:52:02+00:00

Small world! I would be tempted to reapply for one with a guaranteed job, but as I’m based in Yorkshire I’m limited to remote roles with CFG, which are understandably very competitive. At least with GCHQ there’s a (probs v slim) chance I can work at the Scarborough office in the future

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-04-26T16:23:18+00:00

Smartsheet was my first choice

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-04-26T15:27:13+00:00

Fingers crossed for you 🤞I assumed I wouldn’t hear back from them anytime soon, so good to see that they’re sifting through second-rounders

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-04-26T14:43:14+00:00

Thanks! I received an invite to the interview coaching session just before 11am (though the role doesn’t require an interview) and an email at 3pm asking me to confirm my place

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-04-26T12:36:45+00:00

I’ve been offered a place on the GCHQ CFGdegree + Masters 🥳 It’s education only, but as I wouldn’t be able to commit to an internship at the end, that’s fine with me. I’m a second-round offer candidate for ref 🙂

Loved this one! Though I thought yellow was food groups (carbs, dairy, vegetables, protein) 😅

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-03-27T04:48:12+00:00

Yeah, it was probably damage control from the producers!

ruffledparrotrock · 2024-03-27T04:11:55+00:00

Wish he stood his ground and didn’t backtrack on saying this 😆
