Re: Hi
@MDT
Are you from the UK? What's the connection?
Sounds like you have a couple of things bubbling along. I hope it doesn't get overwhelming.
I've been for my walk. Saw an echidna! This is in suburbia. Sure, it's bushy around here, but this little one was in someone's back yard. Luckily people had spotted it trying to cross the road! Maybe covid lockdown is letting nature fight back. lol
Car washing duty this afternoon 😞

"When that word gives me the irrits, it think of it as an out of control car, "careering" all over the road, so it is not necessarily a "good". That said we are not islands and need awareness of our social position ...."
@Appleblossom
well said friend. Well said indeed. I concur with you on this one.
I have spent a bit of time today polishing up LinkedIn. I see it as a tool - nothing more. Just in the box of tools i have for my life.
Any other view restricts the mind and forces us into unhelpful thinking styles.
I'm off to buy a burger for lunch here lol

Re: Hi
my great grandfather was from that part of the UK @StuF
That's the team i have followed because of that connection.
Nice! Echidna in suburbia? that's rare indeed. They are cool animals I think. Don't step on it though lol.
sounds like a good day on your end
I don't think it's overwhelming - I think it can be if I let it. LinkedIn seems like a game, it's one you must play but then the rules are up to you. I jokingly call it "employment facebook"
Part of the narrative we get sold in uni maybe
I guess i have gone down a path atm (which is where i am atm in relation to work as a project support role) and I'm wondering where else I can go with it. I mean I could move out if i found a job in this line, but then I'd be having a job that doesn't interest me. I guess it's about refining the stuff at the end of the day.
A work in progress

Re: Hi

As good a reason to support a team as any 🙂
The echidna obviously lived somewhere close by- was not much fazed by all the people. Probably didn't want the attention, but didn't act too scared.
I think I have a linked in account. I know I certainly Did have one. But my career trajectory, or lack thereof, doesn't really lend itself to the platform lol
You are at least approaching your path with due thought and consideration 👍
I hope it's a good burger!

Re: Hi
Ha ha @MDT yes Linked In is a little like social media I have not updated my profile as it has other log in tools and I am deliberately turning my effort to face to face. Its like an outofdate trace of me ....
@StuF WOW echidna!

It was pretty special to see! Couple of kids there loved it. One of the mothers suggested echidna research could be the home schooling topic for the afternoon 🙂

Re: Hi

I like most animals too, but you can keep your snakes!
No research happening here lol
Edit: was your burger a real one (not maccas/Hjacks)?
I'm sick of seeing the maccas/jacks ads each evening. The cravings are strong, even if I Know they don't agree with me
