#they say they're hiring

[daughter-of-sapph0]

capitalism is a failure of a system and need to be completely abolished

>store says they're hiring

>50 people apply

>30 don't hear back from them

>19 get told they "don't meet the qualifications"

>one single person gets hired

>store gives them way to much work for one person

>new employee says that they need to hire more people

>"what are you talking about? we have enough people working in your department"

>but no you actually don't. you have one single person working at a time. I only work mornings, every single morning. other guy only works afternoons, every single afternoon. what happens when one of us is sick?

>also, what if I'm busy with something else like stocking, and a customer needs my help? what then? you're asking me to work five people's jobs at once. so either pay me five times my salary or hire four other people

>"no. you're fired"

mfw

>go to that store later to buy something

>no one is working at the department I worked at

>end up waiting 40 minutes to buy something

>don't blame the cashier. he was pulled away to do something else. it's the bosses fault for not hiring more people

>as I leave there are "we're hiring" signs plastered all over the door

what a fucking load of massive bull shit

#dostxt #this is about the job I had at target last summer #but it honestly applies to alot of places #they say they're hiring #and you can tell that they need like a bunch of people #but to save money they only hire one person #and make them do the work of a bunch of people

I know nothing about this guy, but I feel like Moonwalker and Dave would be friends in our AU, me thinks

#Dave is a boogeyman jazz swing tap dancing guy and Moonwalker reminds me of jazz sooo #They're both so neat to me x3c #I can't wait for ttevh to come out!! #I saw that Moonwalker can also mean to anxiously backtrack or offer excuses to previous statements arguments actions that were proven false #so it'd be funny if Moonwalker tends to be a liar liar plants for hire #talkin' smack or other wack stories that he back tracks on and pretends with absolute confidence in his voice that he didn't say it #like that one lonely island song I saw Andrew Hussie drawn over ages ago #ttcc #toontown corporate clash #toontown: corporate clash #imagionary rambles #ttcc au #ttevh #ttevh au #toontown event horizon #toontown: event horizon #moonwalker #dave brubot #major player #eldrich abomination and odd moonheaded space dude as friends for the au wins

what if portfolio day but its as slick and professional looking an image every given non-coward artist can muster of a character they made or have worked on saying "ceasefire now" or "they got money for wars, but can't feed the poor" and clogging the tag to total uselessness with it

#limited edition ambiguously sarcastic vent posts i know i'd get eviscerated for posting on twitter itself lmao #'this would keep me from getting hired' only by people who want you to be quiet and remain complicit about genocide #almost like any industry that puts you in that position should be burned to the ground or something #they're already trying to replace us more and more with fucking AI they don't have to pay or get backtalk from #megacorps have no loyalty to you why do you burn your morals to ashes to remain loyal to them #(-as i gently cup your face with my reassuring and also jewish hands- it is not antisemitic to say war crimes. are war crimes.) #(human lives will always be more important than arbitrary fucking lines in the dirt of this earth on which we were all meant to walk freely

[just-french-me-up]

every french speaker's pet peeve : having a character introduced as French, like properly 100% born and raised French, and the closest the actor performing has ever been to France, French culture or the French language is Paris, Texas

#french #french culture #french stuff #LIKE #CALL IT PRETENCIOUS #but that shit is J-A-R-R-I-N-G #like you get all excited #and then the most honhon baguette accent comes up #OR #they will hire québécois actors who keep their québécois accent #and i have nothing but love for my tabernacle bretherens but then???? say they're french canadian then?????? #the lack of care i swear #like in cap winter soldier the cold open villain is supposed to be french #and he comes on screen #and it's the most CALISSE TABERNACLE VEUX TU DONT DU COMBAT i'm like!!!!!!

i can't believe i'm about to defend that mess but since nace needs gluten free food that might have been all he really had at home 😔

#i have no doubts the rest of joker out are trying #but i think nace is the type of person to say it's okay when they're shopping and cook wtv is actually gluten free at the end of the day #nace jordan #joker out #pls hire me i'll cook nice food for all of you

What's your opinion on barn cats/mousers? Are they an acceptable subset of "outdoor cat"?

Certainly barn cats pose the same problem as pets that live in more urban environments. They still hunt birds, spread disease, out-compete native wildlife— all that bad stuff. In an ideal world barn cats wouldn't exist so those things would all stop happening. I don't think harmful, invasive species are in any way "acceptable" and I definitely wouldn't encourage it.

At the same time though I do think sometimes the barn cat solutions proposed on tumblr (hiring ratting terriers among some other ideas) also seem a little... unrealistic. At least given my personal experience with farms and farmers, particularly in places far less populated and more remote than the USA. Asking people to get rid of their barn cats cold-turkey is an approach I think would see more pushback than progress.

Working towards better welfare for barn cats and restricting their impact on the environment through education, low cost spay/neuter/vaccine programs and limiting cats' range to the barn buildings only seem like more attainable goals right now. Barn cats are not good for the environment or the cat, but I think we need to take a more gradual approach to the issue than a rip-off-the-bandaid solution in order to make progress. As animal welfare laws continue to develop and indoor cats become the norm in urban areas I think that will also encourage the transition from rural outdoor cats to indoor ones as well.

#if you tell a farmer in the middle of nowhere saskatchewan to give up their free self-sustaining barn cat #and instead insist hire an expensive ratting terrier service that doesn't exist (or purchase and train their own ratting terrier) #they're gonna laugh in your face and not listen to anything else you have to say #a more gradual and collaborative approach might attain more results #i know a lot of my friends and followers are gonna disagree with me on this #but i think this is a situation where you need to meet in the middle #if anyone disagrees with me that's ok #this is just my opinion based on my experiences #turning off reblogs for this bc i know how tumblr loves a nuanced conversation #please don't read this as me supporting outdoor cats bc i really don't #watercr3ss #ask #outdoor cats

in the fnaf universe do we think that Funtime Freddy, Glamrock Freddy, Sun, and Moon are all voiced by like.. a vocaloid/voice bank?? where either Afton/Fazbear Entertainment bought a voice bank or they hired an in-universe Kellen Goff to make one? and then modified the original Funtime Freddy voicebank to get more use out of it without spending more money? and just bought/made new voice banks for the other Glamrocks?

or do we think that Afton hired an in-universe Kellen Goff (and other voice actors) to read a script to be programmed into his animatronics, where upon gaining sentience/getting possessed the Funtimes were able to use/build upon their pre-programmed lines with the same thing happening to the Glamrocks, where they gained sentience/became alive and were able to analyze and modify their own voices like AI voices?

or do we think it might be a combination, where Afton specifically hired voice actors for the Funtimes, but by the time Fazbear Entertainment were making the Pizzaplex animatronics, they either re-hired the same guy to keep continuity (Frank Welker is living proof that 50 years is NOTHING if you're a good voice actor) OR did they do the thing with AI voices where they INTENTIONALLY fed all the pre-recorded lines from Funtime Freddy into a program and then fine-tuned the results to get 3 more voices out of that without paying anyone

this is for nothing but my own curiosity bc I started thinking how cool it was that Kellen is the canon Freddy voice, but then I started wondering about the Implications

y'know what, here's a poll, what's YOUR headcanon??

#i personally think that the 3rd choice - fazbear entertainment not spending anymore money for actual voice banks #and just editing/modifying funtime freddy's voice lines to use on 3 more animatronics #to be VERY in character for them as a company #but them hiring voice actors and then the animatronics just start saying things that AREN'T scripted #bc they're now 'alive' to also be very in character for the universe #but also the thought of freddy's voice bank being leaked and people using it to make vocaloid covers w/ miku #is VERY entertaining #fnaf #five nights at freddy's #funtime freddy #glamrock freddy #sun fnaf #moon fnaf #fnaf daycare attendant #jazzy keeps blogging til the blog ends

[mattodore]

took me forever but i finally finished this couple thing for mattodore! @wldestluv-rs thank you for sending it to me 🫂

#river dipping #oc extras #theodore doe #matthias evanoff #a burning house to live in #echthroi #i meant to do this earlier but i wound up scrolling thru simblr instead and then was busy with other things #should i have done this for my other oc pairings too...? probably but then i'd have to take new character pics for them #maybe i'll update this in a few days with the rest... that's alessandria/delphi dionte/nicholas and imani/romeo... not that many but still #anyway while i was doing that middle section i blinked and was like man. this is all just matthias #i didn't want to leave any of it blank but i will say the cooking housework and driver sections aren't like. all the time. #bc matthias hires people for that. but at theo's apartment it's mostly matthias taking care of things bc theo is normally busy #and when he's with theo matthias prefers to drive them around himself... #and the transparency in the bar section is to show that it takes a long time for the bar to be filled to that point but it does get there #eventually whereas the solid parts are where they wind up just a few months into their..... situationship #also trying to pick a trope for them was SO hard and like. generalizing. like they're multidimensional!! you can't box them in like this!! #but in the end i just went with broad tropes i know are in their little story... the enemies bit really is totally one-sided tho #theo honestly just didn't like matthias bc again. theo makes snap judgments 🤷 #and ugh... slowburn my beloved. but fr everything abt their relationship is slow and at theo's pace #the day i finally start writing echthroi out like fr. in novel form. i knowwww that baby's gonna be bare minimum 150k kdvjnjdknjh #...also this means the only thing left on the to-do list from the other day is to write the response to that anon asking abt mattodore #and their routines before bed........ lord. why is my brain like mush now........

They say I'm not so good with circles. Or air. Or control. But I can still blast your ass to the end of days if you're not careful, so!

- Derivative High Fantasy Adventuring Duo

#I won't write them they're so clearly cliche and derivative and unoriginal #I just. hmm. #I have an Image. #Anyway Fel's a novice sorcerer who's running away from magic school because of how much it sucks #she meets Kosta (I think I still dk his name) who's a sword for hire/adventurer #but the thing issss that basically no one will hire you for quests without magic because they think you're pointless #so despite him being very competent he's just been. lying. #so he's like girl do you WANT to come and use your half-assed magic and we can be a dynamic duo? and she's like sure absolutely. #she is sixteen and it shows. he's twenty six and it shows. they are Best Friends and if anyone ships them I'll kill them #haha when I said this was derivative you didn't realize the parallels that could be most easily made are with mob psycho if you made it #fantasy DID YOU #also Fel is short for felicity fyi #I say she 'meets' Kosta more like Kosta finds her crying on the side of a mountain and is like what's wrong with you #and she's like dude I'm lost and sad and hate my school #and he's like ok want a job?

(zookeeper au) eiden: hey yakumo why do you always use the stall

rei: damn can't imagine asking someone why they pee the way they do. why do you show your dick to pee. imagine being so overconfident in your ability to piss you just stand and make a mess on the floor for a janitor to clean up (THIS DIVERSION WAS MADE BY 1/3 OF THE CLOACA CREW)

TSJFSFK THAT WAS MY INMMEDAITE THOUGHT -->defensive rei (bc i instinctively project my personal reaction as the first rxn)

if eiden's all "why are you shy yakumo? u can pee right next to me 🥰" *pats urinal next to him* i can imagine rei walking into the room with 1 of 3 reactions:

Fight Mode: "imagine asking someone what they do in the toilet. i could report u for sexual harassment" <- he would not, bc rei ain't a snitch, but i can imagine rei sassing eiden bc he feels like it

Apathy Mode: "i use the stall too. it's nbd. this is unimportant." (continues with his life, uncaring)

Generous Mode: "you're curious? come in here and i'll show u"

#eiden upon realising that his curiosity has dragged him into a social faux pas and he's all #AAHHHH SHIT I'M SORRY I DIDN'T ....... PPLEASE JUST LET THE EARTH SWALLOW ME that is ur business i am sorry goodbye #of course my immediate thought is put an AU on an AU. zookeeper au but eiden uses a STP and is like #AH I'M SORRY it's just that... well.... i use this and i dont want u to feel like u hav to hide but i get that everyone does things diff #ANYWAY I'M SORRY AGAIN FORGET I BROUGHT IT UP #infinite universes. infinite eidens. all of them apologetic and thoroughly confused. #imagine eiden's thinkin all my trans coworkers are trying to hide their transness from me #and i'm trying very hard to drop hints that i am in fact very cool with that but i'm actually coming across as an asshole #no eiden they're not trying to hide their genders. they're trying to hide their werewolf transformations #honestly this whole thing is becoming an allegory for identity suppression #and rei will not have it. #everybody else bein like “it's gonna be weird if the new hire finds out we're animals!! we gotta hide!!” #rei shrugging and saying that he ain't gonna go out of his way to withhold info and also that he's tired so hiding is annoying #actually quincy would fall into that camp as well. hiding stuff? troublesome. #no wonder eiden finds out super fast #asks #WHAT WAS I DOING BEFORE THIS #ah. i forgot. oh well #zookeeper au #yakumo #rei #eiden

Real character growth is thinking weed is the Worst Drug On the Planet as a kid and growing up going "Actually, while weed itself has both negative and positive effects for different people for different reasons, we should talk about how the substance itself is used to demonize and imprison poor people, and you KNOW it's aimed even moreso at people of color, of Black and Latino people ESPECIALLY, all for your local Senator to get the shit shipped to their house and accept the taxes it brings in by the-"

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk, Mr. Fucking Anslinger.

#ooooo oopsy #also am i saying weed cant have negative effects on people? no #am i also saying it's impossible for people to become dependent on it heavily leaning on substance addiction? #also no #but that's the reality with any substance that does make people feel better in some way. If it distracts them #whats really strange is how isolating making these substances illegal are #how are you supposed to help someone when they're using it as a medicine because they're in genuine pain everyday #what about when medicine that could otherwise help someone isn't affordable? #what about how massively this goes for disabled people who fit into these other categories!!! #no matter who you look at all the administrative ban has ever done #is make people pay for being in pain. No matter what kind of pain it is. #Maybe if we had more places in society for people (especially lonely adults) could find a build a sense of community #and compassion from the people who are hired to “Represent the people” #then maybe! the negative effects! would be minor! #and people who just want to get high to relax once and awhile to enjoy a night out #wouldn't bring addiction back home with them.

#y'all my anxiety has me spiraling as of late because it just feels like my whole life is falling apart at this point #i got fired from my job a couple of months ago and i've been scrambling to try and find a new one #i work part time at a store i really love but it pays shit #and i've had all of these interviews and no one wants to hire me and i just feel unhireable at this point and it's hard not to despair #and on top of that i'm struggling with my self esteem again #i know i'm not ugly per se but i'm struggling with feeling confident in the way i look as a big girl #and all of my old insecurities are rearing their ugly heads and i want to cry just thinking about it #and i feel like such a failure right now even though i know that life has its ups and downs but my stupid brain just won't chill #and i don't really have any friends in the area because they all either moved away or didn't live here to begin with #and i'm tired of living at home because of my stupid student loans and not being able to afford to live on my own #i have one person i hang out with and we just met and i don't want to scare them off because they're a great friend and person #and i just feel like i'm never going to meet anybody who's going to love me the way i want to be loved because of my looks #also because it's me. and i feel like i'm so flawed as a person that no one will ever fall in love with me #and i've just been feeling really alone lately and i'm trying to do things to make me feel better but it's just so HARD right now #and i love writing because it gives me a chance to explore some of my feelings and it's something i genuinely love to do #and i'm sitting here waiting for the day things start to get better. and i know we all joke and i'm gonna sounds so dumb for saying this #but i feel like i was meant to be famous? or do something great idk and it's something everyone has always told me #and idk if my feelings of inadequacy are because of that or what but i'm scared that my life is going to mean nothing in the end #anyway this was a lot and you can pretend like you didn't read it. i just wanted to write some of my feelings down

Okay I'm not saying that this semester's students suck ass bc I'm not there to teach them, but isn't it just such a coincidence that the vast majority are failing so miserably and they don't have someone who will tutor them outside of class and go over notes and skills with them, while the previous semesters did have that and the majority passed? Super interesting stuff. Too bad we'll never know if things could've been different if they had just fucking paid me :)

#can you tell I'm peeved lmao #i went to one of the classes today just so i can keep it on my resume #and holy fuck #weeks into the semester and they should have the basics down #they do not #absolutely floundering #granted I'm sure I'm not actually the reason lmao #like yeah i helped a shit ton of students outside class too #but they probably could've passed without me #these new ones tho are awful #no drive no nothing just looking for others to blame for their own failures #i didn't even stay the whole time like i was planning #bc i found out that they hired four other fucking people for the program #who all have less experience than me #and have been with the program for a way shorter time than i have #who don't do half the extra shit i do #and don't get me wrong this isn't a slight at them they're all fully qualified #but why the fuck not hire me #like i genuinely am so pissed #have to email my supervisor but I'm too upset to make it sound civil #like fucking fine if you don't wanna pay me you never get to see me again #I'm not working ten hour days plus extra outside of class for nothing anymore that's insane #I'll keeping being a private tutor for the students but I'm not doing a single thing for the program without pay #i mean holy shit hiring at least four other people and not saying shit to me?? #like fine that's fine fuck you you're getting an email ultimatum good luck finding someone else willing to do all that for free #i cried about it for like an hour and now I'm just mad lmao having a super normal one rn #anyway #not snz
