It is a pretty 70s-ass fit to begin with.

I like how you have somehow managed to avoid encountering unflipped manga until today, and yet still think you know the best way to present it.
Because it’s japanese and japanese is often written right to left. You can’t make it read left to right without changing the art. People who read manga understand the convention. It’s surprising if you haven’t run into this before given the popularity of manga now.
Kafka was a visionary in a lot of ways.
Power dynamics is definitely part of it, and I’ve found that I have much better luck in interviews when I treat them as a conversation rather than just being grilled. It’s easier to do in your 40s than in your 20s though.
On the one hand the way corporations expect loyalty and devotion all the time in return for a very small percentage of their profits being paid out to us as salary sucks. On the other, having to work if you want to eat is just kind of…life? Not saying we couldn’t work on something better as a society, but there’s been very few people at any point in human history who didn’t have to work hard to survive. I’m glad that I get to at least do soulless work in an office which is mostly just boring instead of hard labor or something actively dangerous.
A lot of people with poorly developed social skills like to pretend that poorly developed social skills don’t make them a bad coworker. I don’t think I agree with that. Your job isn’t just the stuff you like. Organization, prioritization, collaborating and interacting with your coworkers, attending meetings and making useful contributions, just generally not being a dick…all of those are your job. Interviews often take place after they’re already convinced that you have the required background, so they’re largely interested in discovering whether you’re a good chemistry match for the team.
Can’t really speak to grueling tech interviews though. That’s a whole different category of thing.
Bees???
This might be meant to cover things like paid sponsorships.
Maybe we’re only supposed to have 4 fingers like people on the Simpsons.
Saw one of those yesterday. Should be super illegal, they’re so bright.
Er do people actually pay that high of fees for Uber eats? Maybe in NYC or something? I don’t really use it if I can help it but I’ve never seen fees that high.
It’s state by state in the US but there’s very few where smoking would be allowed in a restaurant left. Specifics are often down to the city level. They still allow smoking on outdoor patios in my city. There used to be provisions around tavern licenses where they could have smoking indoors in a room which had separate external ventilation but that’s really in the weeds of zoning. I think they’re trying to kill the few of these licenses remaining, too.
No, that’s the costumee.
The “not that there’s anything wrong with that” episode of Seinfeld kind of summarizes the attitudes at the time. I don’t think the majority of millennials ever were against gay people (I’m sure there were exceptions regionally) but there was heavy stereotyping, which of course was a form of othering. And yeah the 90s were very no filter in general. At this time people viewed poking fun as a form of acceptance. But it took some time for the stereotypes to die down.
The whole concept of “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy” was so weird and very of its time. And that was considered pretty progressive at the time.
Hard to spend money without an economy though. You’d have to bring some form of physical wealth with you.
This is a little on the nose but I still laughed.
Yeah I mean it’s probably possible to live underground on Mars (assuming an infinite budget) but there’s not a lot of compelling reason to dig on Mars instead of just… On earth.
Well when they’re saying there’s 2% odds, that’s…probably still higher than you want for the probability of a world ending asteroid strike.
