Why didn't you think these things through before accepting the job?

>>28877
Because it's not like there are hundreds of jobs elsewhere. it's not like I won't be able to afford it once the money starts coming in but it's still a fucking pisstake.

For jobs in the field I want to go into, the only other place is London, and it's even worse there.

>>28876
Extortionate deposits are illegal now. They are capped at five weeks' rent. If you think that's a lot then you don't know how good you have it.

>>28879
Five weeks rent, plus the first months rent too on move in day is still a lot when you only have 8-12 hours a week working over summer and the dregs of a student loan.

Still, haggled with my insurance company to get it to 'only' go up by £500, which I can just about, if begrudgingly, swallow. When I was living in Manchester city centre, they wanted over £2k a year, so thank fuck it's not that.

>>28876

Lad I moved from a graduate job in Manchester to London actually and to be honest if you have to drive, by the time you've shelled out for cars etc as a young person day to day living costs aren't even that different.

That said if you're not from the north west get ready for the greyest, wettest existence you could ever imagine.

Car insurance is a rip off but even as a sensible driver lad, you can see why young lads get charged so much, nearly everytime I saw somebody do something recklessly irresponsible (not poor driving or a mistake but genuine not giving a fuck 'I know this might kill me and others' move) it has been other young lads.

Co-op have discontinued their tricolore fusilli, the utter shits.

>>28882
Seems a bit strange to care so much about crafting materials for primary school children.

>>28882

Tesco do a tricolore fusilli.

>>28884
Shopping at Tesco is truly harrowing, though.

>>28885
Not if you go late at night when nobody else is there.

>>28885

Is it? It isn't Morrisons or Iceland. But then you are one of those co-op people so that explains it.

I just woke up, in my dream I met the girl that was a 10/10 to me and it was perfect.

She isn't real.

>>28887
I only shop at Co-op because it is the nearest shop to me and they offer 10% student discount.

Asda and Tesco are negative sensory overloads. Tesco in particular seems designed to be as bleak as possible, to suck the life out of you.

>>28889
I don't agree about Tesco's but I do feel the same way about Aldi. I also like the discount and membership at the local Co-op. Also the wine is cheap and good enough to drink.

Why the FUCK does my council seem intent on replacing every roundabout, big or small, with a fucking four way traffic light intersection? We're not fucking america, who in the fuck decided this is a good idea? It slows traffic down exponentially and presumably is much more expensive to build and maintain.

I get that it probably stops a couple of accidents a year but who cares.

>>28891
In the UK we call it a junction.

>>28891
Don't local councils exist more or less solely to funnel cash to their cronies?

>>28892
Crossroads m8

>>28892

Yeah, I know, that's my point.

This will inevitably sound racist, but the Asian lads at work seem to be covering themselves in deodorant at least once an hour.

>>28896
You got some sort of problem with smelling with good, bro?

People who leave the door open a bit while they're pissing.

>>28898
Not on. Growing up, the door was always a signal. Door closed = occupied, door slightly open = vacant.

There's a forum I post on where the moderators are absolutely fucking autistic. They will lock threads as soon as two or three posts start to veer even slightly off topic, as though they don't know how discussion works or just basic human interaction.

One of them literally said this upon closing a 98 page long thread:

>I would also suggest those that have contributed to off topic discussion to take some time to consider their posts.

I've really got to wonder what kind of person can write a sentence like that, on an unimportant internet forum for hobbyists, without having a long hard stare in the mirror to wonder why they're such a massive spod with no friends.

Proprietary software. Microsoft's default photo viewer somehow started gobbling up all my memory if I leave an image open for too long, notepad is shit for editing guitar tabs, and Adobe PDF is slow and bloated. I ended up installing irfanview, notepad++, and sumatra pdf and my computer experience is now significantly better.

A while ago I had to use a bootable version of Linux Mint to recover all my files when Windows borked itself, and I would've stuck with it if I didn't need Windows for audio software and videogames. It just felt so pleasantly streamlined and intuitive.

>>28903
Mods are almost universally a funny bunch. The self appointed postmasters are worse; whining about other posts without reporting them or declaring that certain subjects are off limits.

>>28904
Can't you dual boot? That's what I'm doing with my new laptop that had Win 10 pre-installed, stuck Mint on a new partition. It's 2019, high time I started learning Linux.

>>28906
Too much hassle. I don't want to switch operating systems every time I want to noodle around on my guitar while watching a youtube video.

>>28904
I found WMP to constantly communicate over the internet dispite disabling all the options i could find. Installed Foobar2000 and haven't looked back. Takes a little effort to set up but once you're done, it's golden.

>>28907

You can install Ubuntu within Windows using Windows Subsystem for Linux, or run Windows within a VM on a Linux system.

Waiting all week for a heavy item delivery, I spot the Parcelforce van pull up for a moment then fuck off again. The busy lad left an "attempted delivery" card on the floor of my building's lobby. Didn't even bother using the intercom or posting the card through my door.

If some people got paid what they were worth, they'd starve.

Fuck's sake.

>>28911

At least they had the good sense not to replace it with a different product, as anything else would have been insulting.

>>28914
Joke's on them. This afternoon I went to a competing store and picked up both milk and dark chocolate packs. If Brexit and Scottish independence result in tariffs on Tunnock's Caramel Wafers then I'll be putting my FPS skills to work.

FUCKING ESTATE AGENT CUNTS.

People who won't eat food past it's expiry date.

People who incorrectly use "it's" as the genitive of "it".

>>28915
>I'll be putting my FPS skills to work.

Uh-oh, sounds like someone's writing a manifesto.

>>28918
Autocorrect, innit.

>>28919
Tunnock's is a cause worth dying for, m7.

I've started to catch myself avoiding saying words I can't spell, in physical conversations. It's a little embarrassing which is also one of those words.

Dear people that are better than me at my job,

Please let me know when you're off the market so I don't keep getting rejected with "we found a better candidate".

That is all.

>>28923

Keep your chin up lad. I've been rejected from some shocking jobs and I'm working in one now that's better than any of them, they couldn't get me if they wanted me now.

You'll get there.

I haven't shat for three days. Any longer and I'm taking this to /emo/.

>>28925

Eat more fibre, drink more water and take some senna.

I've had the Lincolnshire Poacher ident stuck in my head all day. At least it's not UVB-76.

I don't pay my bloody license fee for shite like this.

>>28928

You aren't, and you legally don't have to for it. You are paying your netflix subscription for it

People are whining about the loan charge again. Tax dodging cunts complaining that they might lose their house or be forced into bankruptcy if they have to pay back all the tax they dodged.

The one frame, or too few to read/see what it is, joke. Loads of YouTubers do it, but I see it most on Anthony Fantano's channels. It's just annoying, I have to pause the video and go back to check what it was, it's not like the editor is sneaking something past the network's big hats.
