@Kidfried If they need a reference or two, just tell them to pull up Push Square and ask us here at the forums what we think of you. I’ll give you a glowing recommendation.
Especially if the job is in quality control. “No one has pointed out more bugs on here than him, sir. ...And he’s our second best quiz taker. And talk about dedication! Do you realize how hard it is to platinum Sleeping Dogs? AND Mad Max?! A more motivated employee you will never find, sir!”

@Kidfried They are terrible - they are designed to be terrible. (I work in recruitment).
The recruitment process for most companies, whether that be CV sifting, application forms or things like group events are actually rather akin to modern online dating; the acceptable criteria is unnecessarily narrow, selections are often based on details already acquired well before any interview process begins and due to these rather shallow processes - excellent and capable candidates are often overlooked.

@Knuckles-Fajita yes that tax is always nice to see on your payslip. Just consider it a (small) contribution to all the excellent public health care you've been receiving!
@Knuckles-Fajita Being taxed 20% on the amount over your personal allowance (plus national insurance of course) is not "most of it". Why you moaning about tax? It's massively important to provide for the public services we cherish in this country.
@mookysam It's fine. Seems that not only does intentional sarcasm not come across....other things can be taken as sarcasm when they aren't meant to be! The internet is amazing and English is hilariously limited!
But if I wasn't paying taxes I wouldn't be able to get this upcoming referral (Slowly, admittedly) that if it leads to a solution means I can work more! Thus earn more. Hence, I like taxes.
And...well I'm keeping it a secret as to what I bought. I realise now that it IS Xbox One X price. No it's something I already have two of and now I think about it can't really mention here.

@AdamantiumClaws If you think about it the term “HR” or “Human Resources” is kind of ridiculous. Why do companies call the department that? Are there non-human employees there? 😂 It’s pretty offensive and condescending if you think about it. As if the company can barely acknowledge that we employees are even in the same species as the administration. Might as well call it “Peasant Resources” or “Resources for the labor down there that is made up of mere mortal humans” 😉
