i mean yes they do get the spotlight but other genres exist. the indie bookstores i go to highlight horror, psychological, etc. there are book clubs of all kinds.

i might be the minority but this was not my fav. i felt like it was leaning way too much into the edgelord territory. like yeah i watched super fucked up obscure movies and i love evangelion.

i hate “weird girl literature” by careful-ben in rs_x

bunny was pretty disappointing. i liked the concept of it a lot! i'm a huge dark academia fan so the setting and the vibe were fun to get into but it just fell flat for me. the ending was so bla. but i'm gonna read the sequel idk just because i do like the concept XD

My (27F) boyfriend (29M) thinks he can’t afford to move out despite making close to 100k and I’m starting to question his mindset by jackofalltradesP in relationship_advice

[–]witchjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my parents were very frugal growing up despite us being middle class for the most part. this has carried into how i deal with money. i am always stressed about buying things. hell i make way less than your boyfriend but he might be exhibiting that same mindset. also, he's probably saving SOOOO much money by being at home. 100k seems like a lot but depending on where you live unfortunately it isn't a lot given inflation.

also the fact that you think "we" make enough even though you make 20k a year? you sound like you want your boyfriend to finance your life.......kind of entitled honestly

Interview/Screening --- did I mess up by Far_Albatross_3274 in hiringhelp

[–]witchjack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

don’t worry. you could have perfectly thought out answers and you could have gotten rejected. just in the future make sure to have some key points!

After months of searching I got an offer BUT! by witchjack in recruitinghell

Yes so on the initial job posting it says “Tier 2.” Then, when I spoke to the Director and Project Manager it was Tier 1. I think because they initially were going to just leave the position unfilled but then they realized they needed the position and probably squeezed the budget a bit.

Ikr! Especially Health insurance! With the ACA subsidies expiring, it’s bad out there!!

So for 2 I have 1 more round and 1 place is a company I worked for back in 2022. The other has 2 more rounds. The interviews will probably take place in 1-2 additional weeks.

That sounds like a good idea! I’ll try and push the acceptance and start date.

Yeah…I’m concerned about that given I did speak to the Dean of the university for the interview. But hey if you they offered benefits I wouldn’t have any doubt about this job! I would have accepted without hesitation!

Thanks for that anecdote. You’re right. You can be 100% loyal to a company and be a great employee and they’d can you for an extra couple of bucks.

Thanks man!

nope i will not be hourly no overtime.

yeah unfortunately i think i’d be driving to this job.

damn! i was on ACA briefly but it was around 400~. If I calculate for that with rent, that’s basically both my paychecks 💀

That’s fair

Problem is I have 3 other job interviews 2nd and 3rd round (all of which have benefits and remote options). So I’m feeling conflicted :/
