I did it! I got a job!

I wanted to share this exciting news to give some of you hope. I made a post here just 75 days ago saying how discouraged I feel and how demeaning of a process this was.

In over a year of applying after graduation, I got one interview. I crushed it and got the job. The interview came at a point where I genuinely thought I was going to be stuck at my part-time job for the foreseeable future. I was even thinking of going back to school to see if that would up my chances. I was also really low mentally because the process was so taxing on my mental health, rejection after rejection. What made it worse was that I wasn’t alone… everyone was experiencing this.

But it happened. I finally have full time job and to my surprise, I actually LOVE it. I started last week! It pays decent. The people are amazing. I’m very thankful.

If you are feeling down in the dumps. Keep trying. It’ll happen for you. I’m rooting for you… so many people are !

Looking for my first big girl work backpack!

Hi everyone! I just got my first big girl job as a receptionist/admin in office 5 days a week. I would love your recommendations for a backpack that has these qualities:

-20-26L (to also very occasionally use as a travel personal item)

-clamshell opening

-side waterbottle pocket (some stretch would be ideal)

-space for a makeup bag/emergency kit (an average-sized toiletry bag) and a lunch bag with room to spare

-quick access pockets

-luggage pass through (preferably vertical, but doesn't matter)

-BUY IT FOR LIFE. I want to use this bag for as long as possible

-Really want it to look at least somewhat feminine. Not into the whole tactical masculine backpack look, although those seem to be the only bags that have my requirements lol

Options I have been considering:

-The Bellroy transit workpack 26L

-Bellroy Transit Workpack Pro 22L

-Mous Day backpack

-Moment Everything Backpack 21L (I had my mind made up about getting this one, then with duties/shipping it added on 100$ go my order.. so it deterred me from pulling the plug on it)

Thanks if you got this far! I would appreciate any insight you have on these bags or any recommendations for me.

What moves gave you significant & real progress?

What are the top things you did that boosted your flexibility gains?

It doesn’t necessarily have to be an exercise. Can even be something like nervous system hacks or upping iron levels (which worked for me, my muscles needed it and they let go).

Very curious to hear! Looking to optimize my routine

The way Jules speaks

I can’t be the only one who noticed this. The way Jules speaks drives me up a WALL. I saw someone comment that she sounds like she’s chewing her tongue off when she speaks. It’s so true and it’s the only way I can really describe it. She also talks out of the side of her mouth and it’s so off-putting.

She didn’t talk like this before in season 1. But now, Hunter speaks like this even irl and in interviews I’ve seen. It’s so weird… it seems like she’s doing it on purpose…? How does a persons mouth and voice fundamentally change into that?

Anyway I just want to know if anyone else has noticed this. It irks me a lot lol.

Her voice goes high pitched when she’s being fake/ trying too hard and it’s sooo cringey. Her being so obviously bothered by Joao and Daisy.. and now being jealous of Jenna and starting shit? She keeps calling everyone a snake which is hilarious because she’s the snake.

I know there’s no shortage of hate on Ellie on this sub but omfg. Everything about her irks me I just have to rant. Her hair out in the galley too like I can’t!

I get soooo much second-hand embarrassment watching her freak out over Joao and Daisy then say “I don’t care tho” like baby you do 😩😩. It’s soooo pathetic like just admit that it hurt you and move on.

Ben is WAY too nice to her. I understand he kinda has to be because of the way things started off and she has a personality that is easy to set off- if things were to go awry again it would damage his reputation but omg he needs to put her in her place. It’s ridiculous. She lives in lala land if she thinks everyone doesn’t see right through her.

Also the whole cake thing was embarrassing & desperate. She thought she ate w that…
