@kdfrawg I bet it did! It was chocolate o'clock (3.30pm) when I saw it :)
It was what's known in my house as pub night tonight. Chicken schnitzel, potato gems and vegies.
@streakmachine This sounds oddly familiar to me, particularly the part about the experience and the sarcastic around selected candidate. I recently found out the dude who went for my job at BCC and got it over me is insanely more qualified yet he's gone on record as saying he would prefer to be in more of a leadership role.
What is interesting is the office politics part of it. Did they want new blood and that's ultimately why I didn't get it, regardless of my work ethic? I'd say that's more than likely. I was bitter about it to begin with but not anymore.
@kdfrawg That’s very true. As my mother so politely said to me one day ‘You’re a very complex person’. I agree with that sentiment.
@kdfrawg I hope so too. I had an offer of $100 not long after I posted it - happy to go between that and $150 but not any lower.
@kdfrawg I will soon enough. My contract at work finishes at the end of the month, unless I get poached by another area. I’ve been feverishly putting myself out there again.
@matigo Yeah, before they run out for good. Call it catching up after my long hiatus after it first came out. I guess it took me watching many let's plays of different past system games to realise how good it is. Next step is selling my DS's and then switching out my PS3 for a PS4. Then my gaming hub will be at its best.
@kdfrawg oh there probably are … but I've had better experiences on eBay than on Gumtree. I have it on for $150AUD which I think is clearly justified considering it's not just the console I'm selling but a few little extra bits and pieces as well. Free postage always seems to appeal to people too.
@kdfrawg Oh it is! I hate how much my anxiety can take over my life sometimes. The last 2 or 3 weekends have been just me, my TV, YouTube and my games. I haven't wanted to be social in any way. I've enjoyed having late night gaming sessions again.
