Workplace witticisms, job jokes and career quips; who says work can't be a laughing matter?
A Penniless Passion
I’m gonna level with you. I’m a window cleaner in rainy England with limited working hours, sloth-like energy levels, and the bowels of a lactose-intolerant CEO in an ice-cream factory.

I have so many thoughts in my head, and I guess just sometimes I just need to empty them out. So today I am going to bless you all with the random jumblings of money-making dreams I wish I could do. Some of these things I just don't know how to get my foot in the door and some of them stupid things are holding me back, like money.
Hope MartinPublished 6 months ago in JournalApologised for doing wrong in English Literature International GCSE exam.
It's unfortunate that a prestigious private girls' school had such an issue with their English Literature International GCSE exam. Such incidents can cause stress and confusion for students. Offering the wrong book for study can be a serious mistake on the part of the school or the exam board responsible for administering the test.

Okay, I am definitely not cool. Sometimes, you will have old thoughts and ideas in your mind, and you can call them up when you are trying to find another piece to add to the Vocal community. I have been working on two separate pieces and am near completion on both of them, but I also made a list of people which I cannot ignore. One thing about travelling and having an interest in art and culture is that you want to know who did what and how they did what. And if you get the chance, you want the chance to talk to them.

I don’t often share advice about job searching or finding the right job for you because I find that so much of the advice that is out there about those topics is just… so fucking milque-toast as to be completely unuseful. It feels like an AI generating your horoscope to me. Like, “Leo, you know you should be feeling fabulous but your insecurities are getting in the way.” Yeah of course I know that, and of course my insecurities are getting in the way, but you could have said any sign in front of that and most of the people reading it would be like, “Yeah, totally.” The articles that I have found that detail how to find the “perfect job” or how to “crush an interview” are all so needlessly vague, that they sound on the surface like they might actually be useful advice, but in the end, it’s just more clickbait internet confetti. I have no idea if any of this will be useful to anyone but me, but it has been how I have found the jobs that fit the best for me. I also promise that I will not sound like some chatbot writing an essay full of buzzwords that are meant to make you nod along so as not to look stupid in front of your peers. I don’t need to do that. If my little AuDHD brain can find not just one but several jobs that make me feel good about myself, that I can be confident in doing, and not hate myself every time my alarm goes off, then there should be hope for everyone… right?

An Ice Cream Shop in Hell
When I was between years of college in the mid to late 1980s, I had summer jobs that were never that great, but I have fond memories of them, nonetheless.

Deep Cleaning By (Milan Clean) In the bustling rhythm of our lives, the spaces we inhabit often mirror the chaos within. Clutter accumulates, dust settles, and the pristine essence of our surroundings gradually fades into obscurity. But within this mundane chore lies a transformative journey—a deep clean that goes beyond the surface, unveiling hidden wonders waiting to be rediscovered.

I got arthritis from a German Shepherd puppy on a beach in Maine. Okay, so some explanation is required here. I was ambling happily through life. Never much of a speed walker even in my youth, by my early 50’s I’d noticed that as I was making my way around the neighborhood, along the beach, or down the Las Vegas Strip, my legs hurt, or my hip, or my ankle. Something was always a little off.

In a time, long past, in a village nestled at the foot of a towering mountain range, there lived a young woman named Jessica. Her name was not merely a label, but a profound reflection of her character and the ancient meanings woven into it.
