My former micro-managing manager for some reason only ended up hiring people younger than him, even if the older people trying out were just as/more competent.

We felt it was his insecurities to feel like “the oldest” or most competent

I enjoyed 2016, but the armor, health and ammo juggling by using the correct execution/weapon wa too much for my brain in eternal.

Can second SpeedRunners. They’ve even announced SpeedRunners 2 recently. The only downside with the game is that when you master the mechanics in the game you can’t really play with your friends anymore, unless they are also keeping up. But even then I think I played the game many tens of hours with my friends before I got addicted and got ahead of them.

Inbetween jobs at the moment. Previous job burnt me out. Miss most of the peeps I worked with though.

Just don’t tell the Italians you added garlic 😉

You can add a bit of the pasta water with the butter to create an emulsion, then finish it by mixing in a bit of parmesan, and you’ve basically created alfredo sauce.

Nice, how did it taste? Norma ended up being my favourite pasta at the italian restaurant I worked at. And I used to hate aubergines.

Just finished Well of Ascension and started listening on Hero of Ages of the Mistborn series. I preferred The Final Empire to most of WoA, but the ending made me want to listen to HoA all day while cleaning today.

This is the first Sanderson series I have read, and so far really enjoying it.

Meidän perheen kissasta oli muistini mukaan mukavaa pureskella näitä lehtiä. Oksenteli sitten jälkeenpäin. Ovat tosiaan kasvaneet valtavasti ja ongelmitta.

Jep, saisi vielä fuugan kohdalta viimeisteltyä niin pääsisin jo lähes koko työmatkan pelkästään pyöräteitä pitkin.

En ole itse löytänyt mitään muuta keinoa kuin terässienellä ja suolalla hankaaminen tarpeeksi pitkään.

Hyvä vinkki. Pitää muistaa kun omat pehmikkeet hapertuu liikaa.

Yeah, I’ve been using firefox for as long as I can remember. Sad to see it go this way.

I switched to LibreWolf after seeing these news. It’s been working just as well as firefox and you can adjust the privacy functions as much or as little as you want.

We’ve really enjoyed playing Slay The Spire on Tabletop Simulator. It’s really fun to try and combine your abilites for the best results. And the roguelite makes it fun to play over and over again, just like the pc game. I would have already bought the physical game if it wasn’t around 150€ here

Dunno if you know this, but the whole video side of escapist resigned and started their own worker co-op called Second Wind.

Thankfully Sundays are double pay in Finland, so we are always closed on Sundays. Then the second day off we have a random weekday (excluding friday and saturday). Monday off rotates so that everyone in the kitchen gets 1 Monday off once a month.

We also get vacation days, but mostly during the quiet season. Always working on public holidays, unless it’s the kind where people go to their summer cabins, out of the city.

Worst part is the owner has been saying he has too much staff and that kitchen should also start running some of the food. We are stretched so thin we do prep at the same time we handle the service as well.

I start working the moment I come to work and finish work when the place is closed, 6-12h. I work in a kitchen. Only times there might not be work is during the quiet season when we’ve managed to do a deep clean already the day before. But mostly I only work and then rest on my days off these days.

Only time I have for even thinking about my hobbies and friends are when I get two days off in a row once a month. Probably going to have to look for a new job before I burn out. These comments about only working for a couple hours a day are really making me envious.
