        Oh yeah, he’s been all over us all day. My shadow, everytime he sees us he starts kneading and wanting to be picked up/be on us/near us.

        He doesn’t seem to be holding a grudge at all, just extremely happy to be home and back with his full-time ape-slaves 😂

      Good Mickey!

      I was going to say hide your shoes as he might get a little grumpy and leave a present in them but it looks like you’re in the clear (for now he may be plotting).

        I woke him up from his sleep 😂 he’s been extremely happy all day

        They said he adjusted really well! He was shy at first, but then really warmed up to the owner and attendants. They described him as a big sweetie

    I’ll be honest the job search is getting a bit grating.

    Will keep smashing through but it’s definitely taking some kind of toll.

      Gonna be applying again soon myself and seeing how many you’ve applied for is both inspirational and daunting at the same time. gawd lol.

        I think my industry is tight at the moment so I’ve been looking at different sectors.

        I hope it goes well for you man. I take the volume method and apply for anything I’m qualified for whereas others tailor each resume to each role.

        Strengths to each but yeah market is a bit slanted towards employers at the moment.

        It’s mainly recruiters in my sector. I’m having a sook and I’ll keep pushing hard but it definitely gets a bit repetitive.

      People seem to think every job seeker is employed full time, in no rush to leave their current role, but also has the time to sit through three rounds of interviews. No one wants to acknowledge employment is an economic necessity and some people need a job as soon as possible

    From Sunday to Thursday 10pm to 5am there is hard concrete drilling just around the corner from my house.

    For 4 weeks.

    Laaaaaaaaaaame.

    That said I’m in an amazing mood thanks to old mate tuna, veggies and rice.

      Like Seagoon said, earplugs for sleep, and maybe some white noise to drown it out too. Loop earplugs are great for sleeping, they are made of soft silicone.

    To coffee, or not to coffee
    That is the question

    Whether it is wiser on the night shift
    To take in caffeine
    against the drooping eyelids

    Or to struggle on unmedicated
    until at home in bed
    finally sleeping

        Perfection, thankyou.

        I will know whether or not it was a mistake after I get home and find out if I’m too caffeinated to sleep…
