I've never heard of refill kits...maybe it's more common over there? Or maybe I just don't know enough about printers, haha.
|
I haven't seen many of them in stores, although you can find them in most secondary outlet magazines, and with a quick Google search.
Also, I don't live in the UK, if thats what your thinking. |
Oh well if they're not in stores then that's why. I don't care enough about printers to bother with finding alternative filling methods online or in magazines.

Maybe he's one of those weird people that update it whenever they visit a new place, so he's in vacation in London. That was my guess :(

They're having open interviews at KFC today Wish me luck! |
I never understood this whole 'I can't get a job' thing. If you expect to walk into a shop/business and expect to get a job, then you are doing it wrong. |
Quote:
It's weird to change your location to somewhere you're vacationing/visiting because chances are you won't be there for long so you might as well leave the location with where you live. Quote:

And I missed this post; good luck Freaky! Do let us know how you get on. |

And yeaahh I agree with Fabiooo~~ |
Quote:
Well get a job soon...you'll need the money ^^ and you'll love working. @Captain Hey, at my school they have a form that tells you all the great places you can work at (Gamestop, Gap, Abercrombie and Fitch) and what age they want you to be, and what you have to do to get an interview - it's pretty low-maintenance stuff (like bring in a form and dress nicely) so I thought it wouldn't be that bad to get a retail or service job... Too bad everything requires you to be 16 or older because by golly I wanna work at Gamestop. |
Sometimes currently-in-college students or high school students want minimum wage summer jobs, which are mostly "walk into stores and get a job" kind of things haha. If you're looking for a career yeah obviously get a college degree, but if you want to work over the summer at a water park, college doesn't have much to do with it XD;
|
Yeh, the age limit you can do nothing about! Which is fair enough. Gamestop is a good type of retail shop, in my opinion. My friend works in a game shop called Gamestation and he loves it. Sure, you get the boring retail side of selling, but you talk to customers who enjoy games, you can recommend and chat and so on, so on, so on; much better than recommending clothes. XD Quote:
Yeh, part time jobs, you can walk in, but if you want a stable job where you won't be easily disposed, they look for more. Don't know why I am saying this, I am sure you all know this. XD /didn't mean to patronize. |
Yeah. Too bad I'm 15. FFFFF I wanted Logic Pro so badly.
Also did you hear that the Rival is actually called Hihihiroshi in Japanese? loljk |
Even in high school/college though, connections count for SO MUCH >_o I had a friend that worked at a library and then quit and managed to get the job passed off to someone else in school because they knew each other so she got the job before it even went out on the market.
It's always about who you know... |
"It's not what you know, it's who you know." |
Connections ehhhhhhh hook me up brah
That's just unfair. Also, did you know about the "youth minimum wage"? $4.25/hr for 90 days. Why only 90 days? What is the point of just having 90 days of low wages? |
Probation period? Some places are different, but 3 months is normall the probation period to see if they actually like you. |
Wait youth minimum wage what?
90 days is obvious though - they want to hire kids for summer jobs and pay them peanuts because they don't have to pay bills or anything and they'll be gone within 3 months. |
Ahhh that makes sense.
Boom So enough about jobs before Razor gets all "weathery" about it. Bacon Um so what are your plans for this summer? I plan on staying on my computer and doing PC. What about you? |
Plans for the summer are to carry on working. We are rebuilding computers and testing hardware. Also setting up a new server room, which will be fun... -___- |
A server room! Interesting...what website/thing? Or is it a hosting service?
|
The only thing people get 'weathery' about is weather, lol.
At least you're making money Fabio! That's what's important :3 Edit: oh wow that sounds greedy |
Ranging from licenses servers, to student and staff web spaces, to back ups and so on. We have a lot of server blades, but it is for a lot of people so... XD |
Speaking of connections at the high-school/college level; one of the most inequitable cases I've observed is gaining admittance into the top ranked universities of the world on the basis of relations. Blatant slap across the face and efforts of all those who work hard and sweat for the spots.
This summer and towards the end of it: prepare for/commence university, and move to another country. Major changes are due. Maybe. |
My plans would have to be to finish moving to my new place and getting a GBA SP along with Metroid Zero Mission and Kingdom Hearts Chain Of Memories right now as far as summer's concerned. That and escape the depths of Purgatory but one fire at a time now.
|
Quote:
@Xulek: I loved Chain of Memories! Have you played it before or will this be your first time? |
Quote:
And yeah.. same plans with me. Carry on working, living, spending money, saving money, living life :3~ |
You all have such great lives.
As a 15 year old there's not much you can go do. Soooo hi PC Well, I'll be at a summer camp in about a month, because my parents reaaaaaally love me. Sigh |

Although, I could have put Augsburg instead. Actually, I sometimes do. (I switch between the two occasionally) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Augsburg,_Arkansas I just thought of this, but for the past few DCC's I always have had make some mention about how I don't live in the UK or Germany. |

I find it quite depressing to observe that not all the classmates I've spent years with have the necessary capital needed to attain the class of education their intellect deserves. When undeserving imbeciles make it through with connections and their parents' bank accounts, it seriously bothers me. |

4.25 an hour my god, thats really low I wouldnt even bother going outside for that! /australian wages ftw.
Admitting people into college based on who they know not their skills is a very silly thing to do for the student and the school I believe. What if the student is as dumb as two planks of wood and fails every class they in and ruin the colleges rep and make it a school of "You got money? You're in?" rather than "Oh you're really intelligent and have a good work ethic, you're in!" I know which one of the two I'd prefer to go too.. |
Australian wages are RIDICULOUS. >:/
I think it's all about what's more important to the school, school spirit or academic integrity. Often people can get away with sacrificing a little academic integrity to build school loyalty. People that go to my school are scary loyal and having an entire family of people that went there really adds to your loyalty. My boyfriend has pictures of him at 1-2 years old wearing a "Future Notre Dame Student" shirt, and no one else in his family even goes here XD; |
Ohoho I remember. My history teacher from 7th grade was a huuuuuuge Cal State guy. He would cheer for the Cubs every time they were gonna play a game.
Oh and...if they have people graduating (without the curve), I'll say it's a good college. But that's just because I'm 15 and I don't know squat about colleges other than "Imma be a game guy someday!!!!! loolz also Game Designing is a tough job" |
In my previous jobs, my lowest wage was like, £7.20, which is really, blooming good for retail. Haha. |
I get 8 bucks an hour. 7.25 is minimum wage though.
|
My mom says she gets about $105/hr from what she gets paid. She works in semiconductor engineering (i dunno either) so it makes sense though.
|
Thing is though, we all live in such different economies and different jobs, us comparing income is strange! XD |
And different currencies to boot....XD
|
I love canadian coins.
Just. I paid for a chili dog and a drink, and I got $8 in just...change. Also the two-dollar coins! So much pretty. And the dimes are cool...the dots on the rim of the coin... |

You should dress up as fried chicken! Um...yeah I wanna work at some job really. I don't care anymore... So, how'd the job hunt turn out today? Or are you on PC while the interview's happening? |
To find a summer job you really have to start looking in March-April. ;(
|
Duh, I know. That's why I don't have a job. Because all the jobs are for 16 year olds.
|
You'll wish you were too young to work though when you get to an age where it's kind of unacceptable not to have something to do over the summer and you have no choice but to work...XD;
|
DON'T WISH AWAY YOUR YOUTH. |
I think ideally we would be around 16-17 - old enough to work a job and get money, but young enough to not be expected to handle bills or rent or any of that hahaha.
|
Had my first job when I was around age 13 or so, needed it at the time if I wanted to get a Gamecube with Pokemon Colosseum and Metroid Prime that I craved so desperately at the time.

My first job was as a web designer on campus...I missed the minimum wage high school job experience entirely, hahah. x.x
|
Web Designers are paid surprisingly well, from what I have seen. However, does depend on the languages you know, where some people think being a Web Designer is just HTML, CSS and so on, they might be looking for Flash and others. |

I'm bored so I made up a cheating scenario. Two girls are playing Monopoly. Sasha: "Lets play Monopoly!" Hailey: "Okay." Sasha: "I'll dish out the money." Sasha: *Gives herself all the money and the bank and gives Hailey none.* Sasha: "I win! <3" Hailey: "Come on! That's not fair you cheated by giving yourself all the money in the bank." Sasha: "Whoever said I play fair?" Haily: "Grrr---than I'm not playing!" *Stomps off.* |

And do you work at Quizno's? |
Quiznos/Penn Station sounds amazing right now.
|
My first job was at 16 doing data entry through a temp agency. I'd still be working that job if they hadn't cut the only shift I was able to work.
Sorry, Live, I had dinner at a Chinese buffet 4 hours ago that I'm still full from. I will have to disagree that Quizno's sounds good right now. |
I haven't held very many jobs in my lifetime. ._. I didn't ever have a job (that wasn't something like delivering local papers) until I was 18 and it was just a phone operator/hostess job at a local Chinese food place. Every job I've had since then I got through my dad's work.
I kind of dread entering the work force for real since I just haven't had much experience & I was hired on the spot without a real interview for the restaurant job so I don't even know how to job hunt. :s |
I got mad at my last job because I got all dressed up for the interview and my boss didn't bother to read my email where I said that I was on campus so he did a phone interview, it was annoying :(
|
Aww. :( Well, you call him your boss so it sounds like you got the job anyway? I guess that's a plus!
|
I had some Nissan Cup Noodles, A Multivitamin, Granola Bars and some Lipton Black Tea. Quite the interesting mix.
|
I was thinking about getting in and out burgers for dinner, but saved that spending for tomorrow when I go grocery shopping. Suggestions?
|
I've been eating more than I usually do these days. Enough said.
Also I didn't get a job until... three weeks ago. I seriously need to be more productive in my life ahhh. |
Hmm... Food.
Take a gander at this folks. http://www.pizzamarketplace.com/article/195667/Let-s-Pizza-vending-machine-ready-for-U-S-debut X is in love. As for my job, computer repair shop. Sadly though, business is down so the odds of me losing that job in a month or two are pretty high. Especially since I kinda lack a collage degree for it. I lucked out getting that job though. One person who worked there quit, and the owner was desperate for a replacement. I walked in with a ACTA certificate for computer engineering, and since he needed the replace the last worker quickly, and no one else applied, he hired me. |
Quote:
I'm on a diet! I had a chicken sandwich for breakfast, then a piece of chicken and some yogurt since then :3 I might have another piece of chicken later as a late night snack before I sleep haha. |
My yogurt is the cheapest low-calorie yogurt. I don't have money for fancy yogurts, lmao. I do mix gelatin into my yogurt though - diet trick, it fills you up more with 0 calories and it's tasteless haha.
|
I haven't had plain Greek yoghurt. But I have had tzatziki. Close enough.
I start my mornings with some low-fast under 35 calories fruit yogurt. Stirred. I used to eat fruit-on-the-bottom kind because the fruit syrup was addictive XD Also, did anyone ever eat these? I have a collection of these containers somewhere lol http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Muppets_Yogurt |
Lately, I've been hooked on eating vanilla yogurt with granola mixed it.
I could literally eat it for at least two meals of the day, for days on end, and be okay with it. Not sure how, or why.. xD; Also, aaaah Muppets yogurt.. how weird. |
My parents have been trying to get me to try yogourt with fruit & granola in it but I'm not really a breakfast person and for the longest time, I've been unable to eat any dairy products for the first half of the day because my sleeping pills always gave dairy products a really gross metallic taste. :(
But now that I'm switching to different pills for a while, I kind of want to give it a try again. I just worry I'd forget about it or never have time in the mornings and the yogurt would just go to waste in the fridge which is probably the most likely thing. I might manage it if I bought those pre-packaged things where the granola comes in a little container attached to the plastic yogurt cup but they seem so expensive and wasteful... |
Quote:
Anyone have Greek yogurt before? I've only had two, but each time the aftertaste was just terrible. :c Not even worth the yummy initial taste. |
Yogurt? I just eat ice cream. So much vanilla bean
|
Quote:
|
Aaah, Erica that's a bummer.. that those pills give diary a metallic taste. ><; Man.
As for the cost, it really is cheaper to buy yogurt and granola separately. Yogurt is so cheap, and you can buy a box of granola for the same amount of money that it costs to buy one little container of a yogurt/granola mix. - w - Greek yogurt I've only had once, and it had honey on the bottom.. I didn't mix it first, just sort of took a bite of the plain yogurt, and wow. Nasty stuff on it's own, in my opinion. |
Quote:
It's even good plain! Quote:
Like, just a weird aftertaste, more than anything. Quote:
|
Oh, and who remembers those silly Trix yogurt cups? I used to eat those every day. Probably wasn't healthy, but oh well~

Yogurt and ice cream are not even close to the same thing, droomph. XD;

I know it's much cheaper to buy separately but I'm not a breakfast person to begin with so I just fear I'd neeever take the time to mix them if it wasn't in a ridiculously convenient place for me to do it in from the start. :P Buying them packaged together is the only way I'd eat it that way, I think, and I feel like I wouldn't enjoy it as much if I knew in the back of my head that I could be enjoying the same thing but like $0.50 cheaper per helping. (I have no idea what the actual savings would be like, just guessing there. XD) |
Well Erica granola holds forever so even if you don't mix them you can have it plain or with milk as cereal :3 There are cheap little yogurts, maybe get a few containers to start out with and see if it sticks? And then if it does spring for the big stuff XD

Frogurt dates back to 1992 in a Simpsons episode, though! froyo is a term hipsters made up around 5 years ago to pretend it was something cool and original

But I remember the banana flavor. It had a Tweety Bird design on it for a little while. I think that was around when the Looney Tunes movie came out or something, idk. All I remember is that I was not liking the banana milk. The vanilla tasted like melted vanilla ice cream, which I love. <3 Strawberry is by far my favorite milk flavor, though. Sweet, creamy, AND PINK. |
Quote:
In exchange, frozen yogourt was first seen like last month or so. Haven't really got around to trying it because it sounds so weird XD |
I haven't had yogourt in agessss. I wonder what state the yogourt was in then, if it was yogourt still and not some, living thing. |
