  • A day with no plans where I’m not thinking about the end of my days off. You don’t get it with a week off. Every day you have a thought about how many days left but two week on Wednesday. You’ve done what you want the weekend is still far away and you know the next week I’d more time. Bliss, no need to worry about utilising your time off. Just pure impulse.




  • Appreciate the work. There’s a desire to spread awareness but there is a place. There is a demand for trigger warnings in today’s society and that stems from a desire to avoid topics. Dead bodies in particular shouldn’t need a trigger warnings because it’s clearly a trigger. That is the goal of posting it. Just because you think the message is important doesn’t give you any further rights.









  • Im discussing this from the perspective of office which I imagine is very different from some other jobs. I consider this saying of thinking as one of neutrality rather then attempting to actively get somewhere.

    1. If there’s a specific job your looking for, that would be correct. Otherwise just interacting with people in LinkedIn works. I check maybe once a month to tell people how interested I am and to direct them to my email where I’m more active.
    2. Not really. The benefit of having a job and looking is having way more freedom to decline interviews. So you don’t put in effort until you want to and it makes more sense. It feels like you are treated better as well. You are given every convenience when you have to fit things around work. Since getting a job, I have had every time limit for sending in work revoked to get it in around work.
    3. Never tell your coworkers. It’s not worth it. I’ve never heard anyone ever discuss taking interviews other than from past jobs. Closest I’ve got is “you’ll be the first to know if I take a new job”. You can take time off for interviews if needed. Or schedule them around lunch. As I said above. They give every luxury to work around a work schedule.
    4. You don’t have to tell anyone. If people ask it can be extremely simple. Dentist, helping someone with a move. Mental health day. Just normal stuff. Realistically, people should not ask.
