The Iberian Peninsula probably isn't the worst place to be at in Western Europe at the moment. I think I would rather be in Switzerland personally though.

Spain was my only main choice for working abroad in my degree so I was happy to taken the offer, better then being sent off to Donegal with no pay and having to find my own accomdation while trying to afford it, so when I got the offer to teach English through sports with it being payed work, free accomdation and free food for the week on the beatiful coasts of Spain I was more then happy to accept 

I understand.

Happy Christmas to you as well.

merry christmas to you too!

Happy Yule!

Something tells me that you had another unstated reason for desiring a trek through the terrain of the 'Dark Continent'. Nothing wrong with that. I have always been intrigued by the fact that it is a veritable land that time forgot.

The Cure...as in...this Cure?

Yep!

ahh, tysm <33

I'm only on episode 2 but so far so good! The series definitely deserves more attention than it gets

That's completely understandable!, even just sharing the link and spreading the awareness is amazing help to the cause!

Oh ok. I could still c&p the link on my facebook. I've got friends that have incomes I'm always jealous of. lol

Posted on facebook, but I don't have an overabundance of friends so it might be hit or miss. I tried though. ^^

the hiring females only doesnt give me bad vibes
but the way they instigated it in this situation to me is raising a lot of flags

firstly they let you apply ~ if they only want females why let you apply
then ring you in to get to a person who hasnt applied ~what arnt they getting enough females apply
or is the trun over of staff high for some reason , but at the same time its like they are relying on the fact your there she gets job so wont leave due to not wanting to seem bad for you

Turn over in staff is high in places like that, and over here we have a law saying it's illegal to hire someone based of gender so I could technically report all the places 

do these places employ any males ? as long as they are hiring males they can hire females for certain jobs
it can be hard to prove they are being gender bias or discriminating in some circumstances
we also have laws like this but a male still couldnt get a job at a womans only gym and other such places

That's really odd then. So many cafes and restaurants got rid of their staff during the lockdowns that you'd think they'd be eager to employ people who answer their adverts.

Sometimes the opposite can be true, not sure your age or experience but often especially with temporary summer work they are looking for young people. Who they can pay a much lower 'minimum' wage and who they will finish by the end of the season. If your older you'd get a higher minimum wage, or might be over qualified for the position. 

that's the annoying part tbh, in Ireland, being 19 means they can still pay me just under the minimum wage, and as I'm only going into my second year of my degree I have no qualifications in anything other then coaching stuff so I really don't understand why absolutely nowhere as contacted back. suppose I'll just have to throw it into everywhere else and hope I have something by the start of July

Missed you!

Welcome back!

Nice work! 

Ganbatte!!!

@Metro Congratulations  

@Wodahs when you started that joke I actually thought you were going for this quote: “ Back where I come from, we have universities, seats of great learning, where men go to become great thinkers. And when they come out, they think deep thoughts and with no more brains than you have. But they have one thing you haven't got: a diploma." - The Wizard of Oz

Best of luck with the assignments. I wasn't bright enough to go to uni, but I still had to do various job related training courses when I started work.

ah yes @Ohayotaku the wizard of oz

we have a chain of shops here that sell alcohol called "thirsty camel" and their radio add's usually have a "dad joke" and this scarecrow was one of the add's jokes

So what show got you interested again, if you don’t mind me asking?

Well I was just flicking through Netflix trying to find something to stick on when I noticed SAO was there and it just made me remember how much I loved it when I watched it years ago, decided to stick it on and then decided to log back into Crunchyroll and saw "shikimori is not just a cutie" and decided to watch that! 

My sister got me one for Christmas. Perfect timing because my oven went out on Christmas eve 

Have been using the air fryer, microwave & a hotplate since.
