It’s strange how so many of these people with crippling and often self-diagnosed ADHD also have pronouns in their bio.
If you are trying to make the argument that as a cohort your generation isn’t a bit weird and should be looked after a bit better in the jobs market then having a collective meltdown at the suggestion to finish your coffee ahead of an interview isn’t helpful.
I’ve worked with quite a lot of people over the decades. Thousands, probably.
Not one was unable to turn up on time.
Did none of them have ADHD, or does it not actually stop you being able to turn up on time?
My wife and I bought each other silver rings for our engagement from a jeweller in TriBeCa in Manhattan. They were, I think, about $60 each.
We both still treasure what they represented.
A guy in our circle makes a good living. He's been dating a girl for three years, and she expects a $15,000 engagement ring. He told her he’s only comfortable spending $4,000 because they want to buy a house soon.
She told him that settling for a cheaper ring means he doesn't value her, and she’d rather wait another year to get engaged until he can "afford it."
Are engagement rings the ultimate financial scam, or is he being cheap with the one piece of jewelry she has to wear forever?
I don’t really understand the thinking here.
Surely the only acceptable choices are that he takes his daughter into the men’s toilet with him, or sends her into the women’s while he waits outside.
Are there really many people who think he should be allowed to go into the women’s?
The selection of hot drinks doesn’t include normal teas. They have Earl Grey, decaffeinated and peppermint, but no “normal” tea.
The coffee was OK.
Arrival at the departures board at KK at 18:45. Platform for the 19:00 not yet displayed.
It cones up at 18:51, not much time for several hundred people to make it through the gates and onto the train.
I’ve taken my children on this ride several times. It’s a lovely, sedate Victorian-style merry go round in a nice part of town.
Seeing a mob of savages attack it while other children were enjoying it is horrendous.
A fireman in the US thinks it’s not a problem that she’s too fat and weak to rescue a man as it’s his own fault that he’s in trouble in the first place.
The data he denies is there is clearly given on the table on page 13.
