Mr Brightside by the Killers. The tune was good and felt energetic when it came about, but it's about a guy being cheated on. Having had someone cheat on me around the time it came out it hit really close to home and I just don't enjoy listening to the song.
The problem with being in the UK is that it's so overplayed and I just have to tune it out.
Kill the ads for sure, but go ahead and give me movie trailers before the start, but with some limitations in place:
Got to say, I'm liking the strawberry milkshake colour background.
Got a couple.
The first bad interview I turned up and had to wait for the owner who rocked up 15 minutes late. We had a discussion and he was happy with my IT skills, we then got into a discussion of how to run the business.
He asked me what would I do if a salesman kept selling Linux support to businesses but the company had no one that had experience of it, I said it didn't feel morally right to sell something that you can't actually fulfill currently, put a cork in the salesman regarding Linux support, train/hire staff and when ready then continue to offer it. He said that's not how his business works and to drive the business the salesman was doing the right thing.
During that interview I saw someone walk into the office that I had worked with in the past, they were incredibly unreliable, bad at the job and were fired, this one guy appearing gave me the final sign this was not the workplace for me. After the interview they gave me an offer that I declined.
The second interview probably a out 2 months later I turned up to was a small company of maybe 3 people. I turned up and it was a shared office space they used, he walked up to the receptionist and asked if there was a meeting room available, she said no. So he led me to the kitchenette area where he offered for me to sit on a sofa not to dissimilar to this...
Having the hum of a vending machine in the background added to the ambience. We got to chatting and it sounded like the guy didn't really know what he wanted to do with the business or how to run it, generally seemed disorganised.
Towards the end of the interview wouldn't you know it, the same guy I used to work with walked into the kitchenette wearing the t-shirt of a company in the building, gave me "the nod" and proceeded to use the vending machine, which failed to dispense his choice and he stood there shaking the machine.
This guy must have been some kind of angel in place to stop me from taking bad jobs. I declined the offer they gave me. A year or so later I was telling a friend about this and we checked on the company, it went out of business.
They were bad interviews, but I still got something out of them.
Thanks for the response! Is there any estimate on when this is likely to be fixed?
You probably already have one, but if you don't; get an electric toothbrush.
Also get a water flosser for when you CBA to manually floss! Imo something is better than nothing.
Has anyone found since installing Balatro it is using battery even when you're not running it?
I noticed recently my battery has been running down a bit more than usual. I then noticed since my last charge it says Balatro has been using my battery even though I haven't played and it's not running as an app that I can close in the background.
This is a US website no?
I had to turn the music off as it got repetitive, but the rest of the audio stays on. The sound effects are so satisfying as everything is counted after playing a hand and you've got a bunch of jokers and cards triggering and then flames begin to build up.
I'm guessing the top management didn't learn that crunch is perceived negatively and doesn't always yield quality results. I'm so glad I never backed this game all those years ago.
I'm still in those early cautiously optimistic stage where I hope I can make a positive change that will help those who come after me. How long does it take for the pessimism to set in? 😂
Ah my bad. I thought the song was written by Brandon Flowers after catching his girlfriend cheating on him in a bar in his hometown of Las Vegas.
