  • I’m trying to find a new job asap! Last week was really the last straw. I was hired for a technical position but for the past two years I’ve done nothing but punishing manual labor almost entirely unrelated to my job. I don’t mind working outside my job description but the reality is I’ve lost so much knowledge just from being out of practice. I hope it hasn’t ruined my shot at the right job. Its technically possible for me to return to school full time but I’m not sure I could 1) make the sacrifices required and 2) actually succeed. I’ve failed twice already.

    I know everyone working out in the field wishes they had a desk job and vice versa, but damn I’d love a cubicle.







  • It’s so irritating that S/V could have been the definitive Pokemon experience but it ended up being what it was. I guess I can’t really blame them for not putting the effort. I mean why should they when everyone bought it anyway (I did too, I’m part of the problem)

    I guess for me there was so much fun to be had grinding out an optimized team by breeding and training them up, and the new games sort of trivialized all of that. Totally understand why, but it took a lot out of it for me.

    The open world in them is nice initially, but imo they failed to make exploration rewarding enough, so really it’s like… What’s the point.

    I still like catching 'em all but it even seems like they’ve de-emphasized that.

    Sorry to rant just an old Pokemon fan who can’t really move on.
