lol sounds more like a phony advertisement,
than a job offer.
and whats that:
"Ever fancied being a juggler? You will juggle your
responsibilities effectively, be that on reception, behind
the bar, with our guests in the restaurant, in the kitchen
or in our meeting rooms!"
let me redo this:
"Ever fancied doing splits?...

A French friend told me they do the same thing in France,
pure idiocy, it's what you'd do if you wanted to
simultaneously create crime, a black market, and an angry
alienated underclass all at the same time.

you're generally alright, however, if you show up with a
degree and a source of income. this, however, is not even
good enough for donald trump, and now even world-class
theoretical physicists cannot emigrate to the us, and please
stop complaining because you could have it worse

I just started a new Job last week.

While there is a ton of work to do, it really (finally)
feels like a good fit for me.

I'm 37 now. Can't say Ive ever had a job I really liked
(maybe that one job where I was delivering sandwich platters
for the "sandwich baron". That was fun.

Besides that it has been a kick in the balls for the most
part.

Everyone gets a good opportunity I think you just need to
wait for it, it will come.

Now excuse me I will go vomit out the rest of my optimism.

think its same in germany,
couldnt really put it to words any better.
people should be free to just live their lives.
if they want to take the benefits and time to stay out of
work to recover or go to classes instead that would be fine
but most importantly their choice.

about ten years ago the city dismantled the flats they let
the refugees live to make way for new upper middle class
houses. its a nice area to live, right by my former
highschool, embedded in detached houses, but obviously
poeple didnt want them around and there was money to be made
in real estate. then the so called crisis came and we needed
more facilities to keep the fugees in one place (you know
cant just let them have a normal flat around us normal
citizens). so they were all isolated on the fairground by
the river. luckily they are now cleared to make corona
tests. those five bungalows look kind of dreadful.

im scared of karma

im afraid to say things like "this is good" or "im happy" -
fate has taught me not say things like this cos it's usually
followed by an ass kicking

the first step to self love is cutting your toe nails. If
you're unable to footsie someone without slicing them apart,
there is no way you can truly love yourself

"The work will be target driven. You will be expected to
work fast and accurately for the full shift."

no slacking

"Personal mobile phones are not allowed (must be on silent
in bag away from workstation if brought), although it is
possible to listen to music using bluetooth headphones from
the office computers/tablets."

thats a loooong playlist to prepare or just rely on
spotify?

i suggest it starts with this:

boxes up to 30kg onto the workstation.
