After applying for about 60 different jobs during the last 9 months, I finally have my first interview tomorrow. Haven't had one for 7½ years :p

I don’t know if your allowed to say, but what type of job are you looking into getting in to

I'm searching for a wide array of jobs: Historical jobs like archivists or museum jobs, high school teacher, different jobs in administration or as a consultant.

We have a similar job interest I see. Though I’d add journalist in there

I'm leaving for Brighton tomorrow and I'm coming back on Tuesday :cheer:  (sadly I won't be able to watch any sports events during my trip, but it's worth it)

I did apply for one job as "historical reporter" but there aren't really much chance nowadays (I believe) if you don't have a journalistic education.

I did in fact once have a "mental breakdown" during my history studies, where I felt sure that the right thing would be going for journalism instead :p

Well, if your studying European History (my hardest high school class) then I understand

Nah. The paper that I was writing at that time was only Danish (though involving an Italian as well :p )

    • Rare thing not to see Hancock winning gold. 
    • USA will.play in California then Seattle then California ...why hell this long distance , teams should stay in 1 place , this is tiring even for spectators 
    • so, the 2025 season is officially over, after the World Cup Finals have been completed with the Shotgun events, where (once again!!!) a new format for the final stage of each event has been experimented for the first time (before it becomes a regular feature in the next season)   the new format enlarge the starting field in each event's final stage to 8 shooters and dramatically shortens the number of target shots to decide the placings   the only characteristic remaining is the progressive eliminations principle   now, as written above, 8 shooters make the final, where after only 12 targets the eliminations start: by then, the last 2 shooters must leave the competition (7th and 8th ranked)   after 12 more targets (24 in total), 2 more shooters have to leave the final (5th and 6th ranked)   then, the crazy carousel starts: every 4 targets we have a new elimination  so, after 28 targets, the 4th ranked shooter is done; after 32 targets the bronze medallist is known and after only 36 targets (provided there's no need for a shoot-off), compared to the previous 60, the gold and silver medallists are crowned   I guess the tiktok people with the attention span of a chinchilla have won once again
