Seemed to go ok! I’ve made it to the next round!!!
Which is case study (nice way of saying roleplay) with 2 senior staff acting like clients.
Odd but will be interesting.
YAY!!! Good luck with that!

Good job Mr Byte, you’ve been doing great with the posting lately. Keep this up and your next performance review will be very positive.
Is he meeting his KPIs though?
If not, we’ll have to organise a performance management plan…
“Attendance - Above average” ✅
Went to Kickin’ Inn for dinner tonight because I’ve been craving seafood and it was surprisingly fun eating out of a bag on the table with gloves on. Expensive, but would do it again sometime.
Rehearsal at my place was awesome!!!
Was nice having people over which doesn’t happen a lot because of where I live.
Awesome night!
yay 😊😊😊
Mr Woof seems to be recovering from the trauma of his bath today.
aw, he looks very sad
He’s so damn cute!!!
There’s an Imgur blackout protesting the banning of nsfw and also they were removing political content?
Also they’re going to be purging old unused content not associated with an account so please go grab anything you’d miss if it hasn’t already happened. (It began at least a week ago maybe.)
There are some old pics of Melbcat on there that will go… I do have the originals and don’t remember where I wrote the links to the post but it’s still sad to think about.
I refused to make an account because they were demanding a phone number. I guess if I ever do Drawabox I have to find an alternative for that reason alone…
I haven’t thought about Imgur for a hot minute. Thanks for the heads-up!
Mickey has been way more cuddly and needy than usual, somehow. I think he knows something is happening soon (out trip and his stay in the cattery).
I don’t want to leave my big baby 😭😭
❤️
aw, you’ll be back, and it will be like a holiday for him too, he’ll make new cat friends and have new servants 😊
Alrighty.
On my way now. Will be almost an hour early but that’s my standard MO. Can sit around and have a coffee and mess around on my iPad before hand.
Fingers crossed!
Good luckkkk to your interviewers that their company is appealing to you 🙏
You’ve got this dude!!!
Good luck 🤞🤞🤞
Toes crossed too!
pics or it didn’t happen
🤣
They’re crossed, but i don’t want to steal CEOs enterprise.
😹
🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
A cold morning, but sunrise with sparkling frost and wispy fog was quite pretty.

I gave Mr Woof a long overdue bath. He was not pleased.
It was a touch awkward but I managed to get the raised dog bath in the bathroom so it was partly in the shower and I could use the shower hose to wash and also drain the dirty water back into the shower. The tiles got a bit wet but not enough to cause any real problems. Now that I know I have a setup that works Mr Woof may be doomed to more frequent baths again.
Feels like -3.2o outside. I am informed all cars in the carpark are covered in ice. Which means I have to sit in my car defrosting for a while before I can go home 😭
Do your pets like/dislike music or are indifferent to it?
Melbcat likes soft relaxation music but seems to dislike rock
I once had a calendar of cats who like dancing with their humans That would be so fun
Gibson likes to sit in the studio when I’m making music.
Casey was the big music lover. He loved Fat Boy Slim and even rocked to a live concert we could hear in the park. He did not like Neutral Milk hotel.
Broadly indifferent, but TheVoid hates when I’m in a Rammstein mood. Too much bass or just too loud???
I think he doesn’t mind it because he has options to leave the room and he chooses not to.
He does love my singing.

Rank the following types of potato preparation methods and give a justification for full marks:
- shoestring fries
- wedges
- mashed potato
- roasted potato
- boiled potato 🫣
- scallop potato 🫣
- potato gratin
- potato chips (crisps)
Impossible. I’d give a different answer depending on my hunger level, hormones, companion, or it just being a Tuesday.
I’m with you - it’s impossible to rank
Roast potato. The crispy edges are delicious.
Mashed potatoes. Nothing nicer with home made gravy.
Chips with mayo from the fritkot off Grande Place.
Wedges w/ sour cream and sweet chilli would be # 1 for me.
Jacket potato with butter, cheese, sour cream, bacon and spring onion, chilli, pepper & salt would be mine.
Baked potato is best.
However the potato variety in Australia is pretty bad.
Proper baking potatoes (Russett?) and Yukon Gold potatoes for mashing are top tier.
Y’all can argue, but you’d be wrong.
I won’t argue. I reckon potato quality has been declining for years. I’ve tried all the supermarket ones and ones from green grocers and I just can’t replicate the fluffiness and flavour of baked or roast potatoes I remember from decades ago. Where. Are. The. GOOD. Potatoes.
S’cuse me teacher, I do not understand your question. Can you please explain your question in more detail regarding ranking?
You’re the 50th person who has said that to me this week. Back to school I go.
Rank them for most enjoyable to least enjoyable, based on how you feel in this very moment.
Hey, I’m having all the feels about this. Things like Myers–Briggs I get different results on different days. Stupid questions like the library/party one. I work in a bloody library this question does not work.
About the potato question? Yeah I get that.
I argue that the library/party question is another level of absurdity though.
Roasted potato has to be on top, but hot chips (not shoestring, proper hot chips deep fried) and potato chips are close behind. I like a good wedge with sour cream too, and mashed potato has its place.
Now I really want potato.
Shoestring fries are probably my favourite. But they’re unhealthy so need to be eaten in moderation, same for crisps.
Wedges can be risky. I’ve had a bunch that haven’t been cooked well. They’re easy to prepare at home but isn’t that just kinda a rustic style roast?
Mashed, serves a purpose as a side, base or pie crust. You can zhoosh it up with things like cheese, garlic and bacon then feed it to your GF while she’s having a hard time.
Roast - Classic.
Boiled - Intermediary state. Reminds me of of culinary devoid Irish grandma.
Scollop potato Like a cheese and potato bake, makes me think of celebratory meals, eg. xmas.
Potato Gratin. Tried the aldi one once and it was okay but one of my favourite things about potato is that it’s cheap.
I raise you on culinary devoid gran – pressure cooked broccoli = grey mush
Oh and you forgot baked and croquettes and…
Ok, if we want to make this game more interesting, add in gnocchi and croquettes
I have the family circle one, and the potato covered scotch egg meatloaf is a regular feature on our menu.
Do you recall when it was a magazine and kids cuckoo club?
Nope, I think i inherited the cookbook from my mums then partners kitchen (after his wife moved out… complicated times!)
I have this one from across the ditch
There maybe more.
I have a house of mash potato loving fiends, so most days I cook mash. Myself I am partial to roast potatoes and who doesn’t love a shoestring fry. Wedges as a side to a robust manly meal like brisket, and I will admit to loving a boiled or even microwaved spud with salt, butter and chives. I make a beautiful potato scallop bake, never got on the gratin train but love a potato rosti. My favourite crisps are original salted crinkle cut. There is no bad potato in my book. The perfect addition to any meal in any form.
Where is microwave’d potato? This is a farce
Travesty
