Learn how to make resumes and make great impressions with interviews. Theres a lot of resources out there. If youre fresh from college, job fairs and the writing center often have people that can review your skills in both.

I say this because just doing the resume right tells me someone at least is competent enough to learn how to format and hopefully type. I won't even screen people who put zero effort. Last week, I got a resume where someone just left indented and listed their experience. All same font, no sections... Just a list. Smh.

As someone that often doesn't wear makeup but keeps some on hand anyways in event of special occasions, can you point me out some $6 brands?

Guardians of the Galaxy. FPS is a little sluggish especially first chapter (theres a bug where the whole screen goes black but audio goes through). However, its still fun

Also LIMBO which runs fine on the deck

I would highly encourage a new eye exam. No need to get glasses or order anything from your optometrist but an eye exam.

It sounds like none of the above give you that nice crisp 20/20. I find every like 2 or 3 years my eyes change a bit and that slight change in prescription sometimes makes a significant difference before and after new vs old glasses.

I wouldn't believe so. I remember while Tesla was trying to emerge, the automotive industry (literally every car company), was trying to block their factories/plants from being built in US and from direct car buying (direct to consumer). Makes me think of the Tucker cars.

Thats a lot of work and opposition to face only to run a company to the ground. I think he was always an ass who sided whichever way for money. He really pushed ideas of being climate conscious, EVs with Tesla, appealing to those that were willing to support, purchase, invest, etc. Now that Tesla is successful I feel like he gave up "pandering" to that group of supporters he never truly aligned with and now he can be himself... Unfortunately.

I personally delete. Someone else will take that number anyways... I feel like there are so many other things to keep that remind us of whom we have lost

Also, yes, the Union rep that said you can get fired is wrong. Its super super super hard to fire people under Union. Even nurses that dont do their nursing interventions or watch Netflix day. Its truly wild what some Union nurses get away with. Pros and cons....

Would love Pete Buttigieg over Newsom but honestly will take anyone that can beat Trump

Anyone they pick from now will get name recognition no matter who they are from media presence alone. Changing candidates at this stage will be significant news.

Honestly, my husband and I birdwatch and we treat it like Pokémon Snap when we go out! Myself with binoculars, husband with camera.

I felt like it adds another dimension or another sense to our world. When I walk from parking lot to work for example, I can hear and identify what birds are around just off sound alone.

I haven't read a lot of romance novels honestly but I read 11/22/63 last year by Stephen King. At its core its a historical fiction (very long read, I did audiobook) but there's a love story interwoven and I found it very romanic. The main protagonist Jake seems very average to me and his views on life and the world were very relatable. Just an English teacher trying to make a difference in the world.

TIL. I'm one of the 5-10% as well!! I have not noticed a deficit in verbal memory... I'm more interested reading the comments and learning today that people have inner voices?!?
