Yeah I don’t understand why everyone needs a tank-sized SUV to drive their kids home from school. I’d love to get a small sedan sized truck with a normal car engine but the back is a truck bed, but those are long gone as an option in the states. When I was in Australia I saw these, they call them a ute.

Technically still reading the Dune series but I need to get back to it.
I remember I was working at my old job, and me and this other dude both worked at GE in the shop together before that. There was this older dude who was a massive dick to everyone, would just bark and complain about stupid shit at everyone all day long. Well since GE closed the plant and everyone got laid off, he applied to work where we both did. It was a pretty small shop too so it’d be even worse. Word got out and we were like ehh yeah it’d suck but I’d hate to get in anyone’s way of securing employment, maybe he has a family. But after a bit I was like man I’d really hate for this dude to fuck up my daily life and ruin this shop, especially since it was basically brand new and I was one of the original hires there.
So I went to my boss and was like hey I heard that this dude applied, you might want to rethink it. And before I could even give reasons why, he was like “just based on his phone interview alone, I’m not going any further with him as an applicant. Seemed like a bad fit”. And this was a dude with a lot of experience in our field. Like how do you fuck up a phone interview hahaha, it’s basically there just to make sure you’re a real human and can come in for one in person.
Been hearing this exact line for decades. Yawn
About to risk it all and type yay && flatpak update ✊😔
