  • Why did so many people think I was being serious smh by chubaccy (Thu 30th Sep 2021 8:05am)
  • I feel your anguish. Things can only get better. I was in a similar position this time last year and understand how painful it can be. Took me 7 months to even get an interview and each day was a battle to complete the simplest tasks. Since then things have really gone from strength to strength but I’m trying not to forget those unemployed days living alone in isolation. Speak to friends/family where you can. Make small talk with the cashier at your local Tesco, the postman, the bus driver etc. don’t forget to engage in human interaction and trust one day you’ll look back and realise just how different thing are to what they are now. by chubaccy (Tue 23rd Nov 2021 2:32pm)
  • Walk across the river to the Laurieston for an authentic Glasgow but part gentrified by hipsters. I normally wouldn’t recommend but being from Chicago I’m sure you could handle Tradeston no bother by chubaccy (Fri 26th Nov 2021 2:47pm)

  • DELETED I feel for both sides here tbh. Was a barista for costa during uni - I got so tired of folk ordering a ‘white coffee.’ I was mostly understanding aside from when folk thought I was an idiot for trying to get them to specify whether they wanted a black coffee with milk or a latte. Also trying to explain a flat white was a whole other ball game by chubaccy (Thu 27th Jan 2022 12:20pm)
