now that i think about it i'm bisexual and i should have tried to become bilingual so i could accumulate bi identities

Yue Han June 11th, 2019 5:16 AM

Finally made the decision to not go to this beach party next week. It was going to be unnecessary expense of getting transport tickets, accommodation etc. when I've already put myself on a budget. I just told one person I'm not going and she's cool with it but now she's saying "no pressure but did you consider this option". Other people are going to say stuff along the lines of the same kind of thing in a more pressuring way. While I'm not worried about being peer pressured into something some of these people will definitely take it the wrong way if I have to say this party is an inconvenience to me right now and I shouldn't have to explain myself for not going. I wouldn't care but I have to work with these people for the next 7 weeks and there are a couple of people that I can tell that their mentality never really left high school (a common trait of expats in my line of work tbh).

Make sure to buy some binoculars and a bicycle while you're at it.

Caite-chan June 11th, 2019 5:56 AM

I wish people would realize that if someone doesn't want to do something they shouldn't have to explain themselves. Don't want to go to a party okay I'm not going but I'm not going to tell you why because its no ones business but my own.

Don't feel like you have to because of everyone else.

Thanks. Actually I would genuinely want to go if it wasn't for my budgeting situation as there are people going I would want to see which is the reason I've been trying to make the effort to see if it's possible...and it is but just at an inconvenience for me that makes it not worth it. Again I'm not bothered about the other people if they are going to act a bit 'high school', just having a little rant that some people never really grow out of that mindset and I'm stuck with it for a few more weeks haha.

colours June 11th, 2019 7:30 AM

lol going to parties in general

like I can imagine myself somewhat at one but it'd just be really uncomfortable if I don't know anyone there.

Tsutarja June 11th, 2019 7:38 AM

parties are ok if they have a spot i can go to and be by myself after an hour or so

i'm not an introvert i just get bored easily ._.

colours June 11th, 2019 7:39 AM

I remember having family gathering parties and I was always the person that would awkwardly be by themselves while the rest of my family would just drink or whatever. I dunno, I'm just not huge on them, especially if there's just... nothing for me to do lol

Sydian June 11th, 2019 9:07 AM

i'm not here abt parties either tbh. i'd rather sit in my room in pure darkness and watch judge judy

alisaie June 11th, 2019 9:38 AM

same with the parties. i don't even remember the last time i went to a party that wasn't a family gathering (which don't count)

Emilia June 11th, 2019 9:48 AM

Well.. about my friends PC.. it ended up being the motherboard so now she's waiting to get it back tomorrow lmao
Cost her over $500 for fixing it now.

alisaie June 11th, 2019 11:13 AM

yiiiikes. hopefully it works for a long time after that.

colours June 11th, 2019 11:15 AM

gotta say having two days off of doing absolutely nothing feels good

and then I also have the weekend off so I only have to work thurs/fri

not bad

professor plum June 11th, 2019 11:41 AM

that sounds nice and relaxing, Angie :) I had to take off early on Friday and yesterday due to super intense, sudden headaches. I think I'm good today, though? :thonk:

alisaie June 11th, 2019 11:41 AM

what i would give for a week like that

colours June 11th, 2019 11:46 AM

I mean my paycheck won't be happy so this is the last week I'll be able to get away with it lmao

That sounds nice, it's good that you can do it occasionally! I also understand the paycheck end of things.

I've recently been getting two days off in a row for the last few weeks, and that's why I'm even having the time to be on here. Cause I don't have to shove everything into one day off. So niceee.

Sydian June 11th, 2019 6:07 PM

I'm so sorry! I hope you guys land jobs very soon. 😖

User Anon 1848 June 11th, 2019 8:46 PM

I'm tempted not to point this out to staff but I think someone mistakenly gave me supporter status even though I've never donated to PC. Then again my insightful posts are just as good as money.

Taemin June 11th, 2019 9:09 PM

Crystal Tier is a pretty big mistake.....

Wow, who? I'd like to thank that person at the very least. Is there a way for me to check? Feel free to DM me whoeveritwas if you don't want your good deed to be revealed publicly for some reason.

colours June 11th, 2019 9:22 PM

I remember very fondly the many times I was unemployed without another job lined up and I hated every day of it. Running low on money for rent, food, and other necessities and it's just something I promised myself I would try to never go through again. I hope you find something soon, Syd!!

So it was you? Thank you so much! I'd love to return the favor somehow so please let me know if I can ever do anything for you. I don't even know what to say but I really appreciate it!

Fairy June 11th, 2019 9:26 PM

Haha indeed! I just PMed you. :)

Don’t worry about it, I like surprising people who I think are great in the community. xoxo

There’s actually only one main tier of supporters now! Well, there’s Platinum which is for like over $100 but yeah. Even just a basic donation gets Crystal now :D

moon June 12th, 2019 8:50 AM

If someone legit donated 1000 still, I'm not sure we wouldn't just slap a platinum role on them for the heck of it though ;)

Sami June 12th, 2019 9:00 AM

i can donate my soul

wait no i already sold that crap

colours June 15th, 2019 5:54 PM

I only have Wednesdays these days rip and I can't go home early on Mondays because Mondays are considered critical days and it looks bad to do that.

So I can only request a Tuesday off (whenever my boss offers it), so let me know when you guys want to go about doing that and I'll see what I can do.

Tell them if nothing happens they'll have to answer to all of us on PC.

Alexander Nicholi June 17th, 2019 10:28 PM

know the feeling too well. all i could do not to cry at my last job as the manager wanted to cash me out before lunch had commenced on my second day, but i kept it together and held on until the end of the shift

unfortunately i was never called back, they gave me the go around and lied continuously every time i pressed them out of politeness. i never had the stomach to pick up my check because it just wasn't worth it, i came there to have a good work relationship first and foremost

my husband suspected in hindsight that really i was hired on the spot, and she was going to stick with me and give me a chance, but the girl she trialed some time that week was better and so she just canned me without notice.

I miss when Chrome let you mute individual tabs rather than having to mute a whole site. I read that they plan on phasing out Adblock soon too.

i like firefox too, but where i've adjusted to using chrome over the years, i just find it difficult to permanently switch to any other browser at this point.
