Came back from Blackpool. Enjoyed it, had fun, went to the Pleasure Beach on a very quiet day so very little queue time for any of the rides. Blackpool Zoo was interesting. Had a very nice lunch at Stanley Park. Just very tired now.
Go back to work tomorrow. Work has been up and down, itās just the fact weāre busiest during the Winter and November and December are easily the 2 worst months for us and they are fast approaching. On Friday, on our work group WhatsApp chat our store manager abruptly announced that he had quit the job immedietly and gone back to his home country. So I have no idea who is even in charge of our store anymore. Tomorrow should be interesting to see if anyone has any information.

Sounds like an excellent time to drop that application for store manager

Store Manager is a pretty rubbish job if you ask me. They get an actual salary rather than on a zero hour contract, but they only get Ā£1,900 a month and must do a minimum of 48 hours, with some shifts being mandatory each week. If you do the maths, that is less than Ā£10 an hour. It seems our chain tries to encourage our Store Managers and Assistant Managers with a bonus system, that rewards them with cash bonuses if the store achieves targets like sales figures, keeping our labour down to a certain percentage, etc. But that seems only really achievable if your store is adequately staffed and at the moment no store in Edinburgh is, soā¦

As of today Iāve finished every map 100 % again. Did this already in H2, now also for H3 (there were a few story missions missing after the transfer). Now I just have a few more older FC to finish with 5 stars, about 15 or so. Finished every one of them in H2, too.
To spice things up a bit I decided to play the whole story again. But starting every map without loadout. While going for the targets I try to KO as many NPCs as possible ā for at least as long till I get bored. Then Iām going for a fibre wire kill. Hoping thereās some tool for this in at least most of the maps. If there isnāt a fibre wire (or equivalent) Iāll go with a loud shotgun kill. Should be fun!

Yesterday I found out that a concert was canceled by a band that I really like. The whole tour was canceled. All because of Corona. It just sucks 
the concert was supposed to take place last year, but it was postponed until this year and now they have finally canceled it completely. I get the money back for the ticket, but I would have preferred a new appointment Iām just a little sad, I would love to go to a concert again

Iām in a similar situation with a concert. Lady Gaga postponed the 2020 tour bc of Covid and then when summer 2021 hit she postponed again so now weāre waiting till 2022. If she cancels we will get some of our money back as we would be entitled to the face value of the ticket, but we paid over face value for the tickets from a 3rd party so we would be stuck eating the difference.
Fingers crossed that both our bands go out on tour in 2022 (-;

Clever idea, it would be better if it came from an actual funeral home.

Did you mean to put this in the General News thread, Yacob?

No, I mean itās a news storyā¦ but itās just some random advertising agency that came up with a clever tactic to promote the vaccine. I meant to put it here.
It can be moved if you think it doesnāt fit here.

After a process that began late last year, I received a call that starting next year, Iāll be moving to Rome in the service of my government. I GOT THE JOB! You know, the one Iāve been posting occasional updates about in this topic.
I donāt know what to do with my excitement, itās just so hard to believe this is actually going to happen! As Iām typing this Iām still not fully wrapping my head around the idea.
