EEVILMURRAY

I kinda have a new job. I did my usual routine of finding legal jobs online and firing out CVs. Got a call from one asking for an interview which I went to on Monday. Was technically given the wrong address - it's on the same location as the one they gave but it a different street. Anyways, the place looked a mess. The carpet into their office was worn and the offices weren't put together. Think later seasons of The Good Wife but with less people. I found a room with 3 people in who seemed surprised to see me. They later said it was being refurbished which I thought they must be a recruitment firm as they surely wouldn't have a need for a lititgation assistant here? Interview consisted of taking them through my CV, which they had already, which was my old one. I brought a new one but they didn't ask for it. A little legal quiz on paper and one of those "what is the next in the pattern" test things (I hate them, guessed so many) Callback the next day saying I got a conditional offer and with the 1 weeks notice stated I could start next Tuesday. They mentioned my references and mentioned my former manager as my recent employer (the one who shopped me) which I was quick to correct I had a new employer. Emailed them my updated CV and mentioned that I'd be away next Thursday for a gathering and they can ring my reference and confirm I had booked it off. No reply yet, but something about this company is putting me at unease...

Niska will turn "good" and sacrifice herself to beat that bob-haired girl, everyone will weep. Calling it now.

4-5 Quick Balls and I got it. Thanks! Here's hoping it makes a worthwhile addition to the team. Mon on my team earn their place, ever since Pidgey proved itself to me when it took on Brock's Onix on Blue. Sandygast was tipped for the squad but Mudsdale showed it was worthy before. So no castle for me

I've just started the third island. Done a bit of exploring. Will have a go and look back, is Wimpod catchable on Moon? Fucking sick of fishing and getting Magikarp.

I'm using it at the moment until I can bring my squad into line, then I'll turn it off and go on rotation. Squad at the moment is: Incineroar Mudsdale Toucannon Charjabug Wishiwashi Fomantis The last three are TBC, I want a decent water type naaaow. I did have Crabrawler but finding out it can only evolve later in the game has put me off...

Was £16 at the Tesco reduced to clear with some other Wii U games. They tried charging me full price but I went full customer on their anuses. They took the label off so if you see the label now, gets it.

This is feeling more and more like the 2nd season of Broadchurch - unnecessary. Like they're trying to build upon something that doesn't need to be built upon.

I would say yes. As S.C.G. said, the Charizard is more than $8 by itself. Quite a bit depending on the condition. They are all old cards, from the Base, Jungle and Fossil (the first three) sets. The most recent set has actually reprinted some of the older cards, keeping a little faithful to the style:

Threaten to leave!

Straight into a job no doubt, unlike us CILEx's.

Some further essential purchases: Penny sleeves to go round my good sleeves, need them in time for heading off to Dortmund for Pokémon TCG tournaments.

Started off with a NES, games I can remember owning: Super Mario Bros 2 Legend of Zelda 2: Adventure of Link Solstice Bayou Billy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Me too!

Already bought a ton of boosters as well. Gonna try the deck out as it is before I start remixing it.

How long are you going to give them?

Don't leave us hanging brah, what are these plans?

Give them money, don't use their product. Great way to fight the power fucktards.

I've been tempted to get that. I already convinced someone else to when I shared a link to it on the Facebooks, but I don't think I'd ever play it. We have the Playstation 3 in the living room which acts as our blu ray player but we've never used it in the new house. Just opting for the Netflix. How is the quality? I've got it on DVD.

Please tell me that's how you talk to other teachers at work.

I think my Donald Trump Pop has skyrocketed on value now. Probably compensates for the price fall of the Hilary one.

Moving a little back into first world problems. Those shirts I bought don't fit. Their XL is apparently a M in US/EU/AU, so I'm getting they're using Chinese measurements?! Ordered a 3XL as it equates to an English XL but the things still don't fucking fit. I is not that fat.

I run all my (Steam) games off my HD whilst Windows runs off of an SSD. May be a ballache moving/redownloading stuff, especially if you plan on getting everything on at once. Works just fine.

IT IS NAAAOW.

Did you anyway? Anyways, more morbid news... A friend of mine has lost her battle with the cancer - I'm not entirely sure which kind, I never really wanted to seek out the details - earlier this week. We all knew it was terminal but we all thought we had more time together. I was told that she went peacefully but I can't get it out of my head that it wasn't the case and I hope those shitty thoughts can bugger off outta my head. She's not hurting anymore, which is the best we can take out of that.

I think this is a whiny bitch attempt by the losing party I think. Kinda like what I'm doing at Tesco, except I'm doing it for fun. I've accepted the result. MP's should as well. Leave Won. Remain Lost. Asking to check to see if it's cool with them is pissing on democracy. Come the next general election, if for example Labour won, would we need a vote by MP's to see if they're alright with it? But if the EU passed a law on processing criminals or something and the British Government ignored it, surely they would be penalised?

I think they're clutching at straws here Flink. You do all this awesome shit on your own and don't expect (probably in their eyes) any incentive, so you're fine where you are - raking in da monies at a lower wage. I'd go for the new job if it gets offered. I bet there are no "big plans" ( have you seen any in your time there?) and even if there are they won't be big. Imagine getting an update to an app and it's just minor bug fixes. It's just something to keep you there, any big plans that may arise will magically not pan out, with some bullshit like "not enough funding" or some shit. By that time the delightful other employment opportunity will have passed you by and you'll be stuck without options. To summarise, as a Wise Man once said: Get to da choppa.
