Interview tomorrow
Talking to a few friends, they're trying to convince me that adding makeup to my interview clothing is what's missing. Somehow, I don't think so. I'm not doing all that fiddly bullshit, just to lie about how I look and get me a job. Because then they'll have expectations and I'll have to keep it up and I just.... can't.
So; tomorrow is the AG's office interview. It's working in their Worker's Compensation division, which, let's be honest, I'm more than ready for. I worked on the private side, now time to work on the other? Please?
The problem is I don't remember, nor can I find any record of having applied for this job. BUT I WANT IT. So, there.
Other things going on in this house:
- Still waiting on the estate to be settled. If I don't hear by Friday, I will email him on Monday again to ask when can I send out the money to people. Because I want this done and over with
- Son goes to speech once a week, to work with his device (IPad) so that he can communicate. It's not going so well at home, but he does really well with it at speech! So, explain that one to me.
- I'm playing video games again. My PS5 is getting a workout since I'm at home all the time. I just finished Lost Judgment which is the sequel to Judgment, and I really enjoyed it. Son now says that I will play Last of Us. So play it I shall.
- I'm still writing. Recently finished editing my one novel from 2014 NaNo (Yeah, more on that later). I need to rewrite it, and work my way through it, but that's a November problem.
- I need to finish editing Steampunk and then will rewrite that, probably in December.
- I'm very tired and my brain is a hamster in a wheel. Except the hamster is very tired.
- I have discovered Blue Ribbon Baking on Netflix. It's basically "American British Bake Off" which... I prefer the Brits.
Now to NaNo
NaNo has not handled the last few things well. Firstly this is an overview of where this all started with pedophile grooming accusations. Now, however they have come out with a stand on the use of AI here. What that boils down to is not allowing AI is ableist and classist.
So, after twenty years I deleted my account a couple of days ago. I'm done with them. I'm disabled, while I don't need adaptive devices to write I still find it insulting for them to say that not allowing AI is ableist. Bitch, no it's not. Ai =/= adaptive equipment and someone over there needs to realize that.
That's my take on it. I don't expect anyone to take my word for it.
