Just wanted quickly pop in and say thank you all for your words of condolence this morning, they were much appreciated. It’s going to be a bit sad for a while, but all will be well again soon.
Housemate has decided to have him cremated (he was technically theirs), and I’ve secretly called the crematorium to have him upgraded to an urn that looks like a sleeping cat, so he will look nice amongst their little fancy knick knacks shelf.
Ok DT, I have decided to take the new job offer! Short term, I lose a bit of cash (it was bound to happen because I make a LOT of penalties), but long term I make myself infinitely more employable and can start to think about settling down.
The absolutely massive win is I will now after a stupid number of years return to normal 9-5pm life! I am ridiculously excited, I miss my friends and family, and just having a normal weekend.
For those who saw my previous posts, kitty is home and on a lot of medication that will mostly keep him comfortable as things slowly come to end. There’s a clot on his heart they couldn’t get to pass so he may lose his back legs but hopefully he’s at peace before that happens.
Have to share this pic of my cat being upset I wouldn’t share my after work cookie with him.
Probably petty but I just declined a “pre-work assessment” because after reading the fine print it appears some of it will be AI assessed, and it also requested access to my webcam while I sat the test to record me.
I’ve emailed the recruiter and told them I’m withdrawing my application and why I’m withdrawing it. Probably won’t hear anything back but I’d rather not work for a company that can’t even assess me themselves.
Second last day of stress leave today, think I’ll remain in my jammies and lounge about doing whatever takes my fancy.
Stress leave letter achieved! Ya boy is laying low for a couple of weeks to gather his thoughts.
Housemate and I are on the house hunt and we found this lovely house in a place we love, and in very fine print it says you aren’t allowed to use the carport/granny flat or the shed…
Why the fuck would I pay to use half the house/property, you’ve got to be fucking joking. What’s more is I don’t want to run into someone in the backyard every other day while I’m paying probably triple their rent. I don’t know maybe I’m being unreasonable, but it just seems ridiculous that you pay all this money to basically have a room mate you don’t even get to pick.
Lmao didn’t get the job I waited three months to hear back from.
Well, I opened my mouth a bit to soon. It appears kitty passed away sometime in the night on the couch nestled among the pillows. Had to wake the poor housemate up and give her the news, and she is not taking it well.
R.I.P to the little man himself.
