Got to see a dear friend of mine again today. And I attended a farewell party of another friend of ours. She'll be travelling across Latin America for a year at least. Sad to see nice people leave, but she seemed really happy today after having had a rough patch for some time now. That was good to see. And a lot of people showed up to say their best wishes. Gave her a mixtape I had compiled as a parting gift.

thanks to y'all again. It actually went pretty well! Although in the first 2-3 minutes I was uncomfortable and nervous as fuck (I guess it was visible too), then I relaxed and we actually ended up having a very good 2hour conversation. I think I have some chances to get the job.

yeah, sort of. btw, it was a nice experience, seeing that they have uglier looking offices in Switzerland than we do in Slovakia ![]()

Arrested Development is coming back next week, so that makes me happy.
I think I’ve rebounded a bit from the extreme expenses associated with getting house repairs underway, so that’s nice too. Otherwise, I’m in a bit of a sad state. |

I'm now really curious if my strategy of being completely honest to them will work or it won't. I said to myself I would not hold back any weaknesses or things I'm not so fond of, and be likewise open about my strengths and things where I can shine. I'll see.

whereas now, if they bring you in, they'll already know in what areas you'll need support, and they should be able to provide it for you, or give you training, or whatever. to me, staffing a team is a bit like playing d&d or any computer role-playing game that derives from it. not everyone can be great at everything. what you want instead is people with specialized skills and talents that complement each other, and everyone in the place they do their best. i get that uncertainty is uncomfortable but i wouldn't sweat it at this point. if you're meant for it they'll make you an offer, and if you're not, then they won't; but either way you learn something. and what you can do with that knowledge is the real important part. no? |

Ordered two saveloys and chips from the chip shop. Bloke behind the counter got distracted and put another two saveloys in there. Four saveloys for the price of two. Life is sweet.

they offered me the position. And they offered a shitload of money too, however after deducting all the anticipated monthly expenses, I think I'll be left out with some 200 francs or so ... which is not good.

Stop buying Jimmy Choo shoes and you'll be alright. Congratulations on the offer though. Reckon you'll take it even after the money has shown to not be that great?

i should add...
i once made a playlist for my wife with 70 versions of should i stay or should i go she hated her job and had a better offer but she was anxious or whatever (high histamine now i think?) yes, “the devil you know” might be “better than the one you don’t” but also worth considering the key lines from that song: if i go there will be trouble and if i stay it will be double hahahahahaha we moved, there are problems, but it’s been a great improvement. every situation is different of course. switzerland’s economy looking great right now and the franc is a safe haven. with italy in trouble and germany in slowdown, ireland at risk with brexit (but poised to take up financial business from london nevertheless), populists all around you, etc, euro prospects are a bit... uncertain |
