I'm in Poland on official pretzl-sampling duty.
Oh god, I wish that was a job that I could apply for.

whaaaaaaaat
do you have like, official pretzl-sampling documents

N.... Yeah sure, a post it note with the Tyskie logo and the phrase 'President of pretzls' written on with crayons.

Are pretzels a huge deal in Poland?

Kinda? They sell them everywhere.

I'm actually a bit disappointed by the street food vendors. They're kinda lackluster compared to Prague.

that is acceptably official. i am professional adult i approve

this weekend when I was with an Actual Real Life Friend, I pointed at a trdelnik vendor because yooo trdelniky, and she was all "NO YOU MUSTN'T BUY THEM THEY ARE OVERPRICED AND TERRIBLE ANYWAY" and I was very confused because ??¿¿¿trdelniky?¿¿?¿ ¿terrible??¿¿¿¿?¿¿? what blasphemy
(i do agree they are a bit overpriced, but then again 60 czk is only 20 norweigan crowns so)
you'll know where to find me.

Your friend needs to accept trdelniki into her life.

Did you eat at a restaurant called Kolkovna up in via kolkovne? So much delicious Czech food and we actually had to laugh because it was also ridiculously cheap. That is the true perk to Norwegian price levels.

not that I can remember, no. Czech food is ridiculously cheap though, and it's funny because Prague is the most expensive place in the entire country because of the tourists

I have been at the restaurant called Hell, though, but I don't remember what the food was like there.

Quite well done, I assume.

I GUESS
I mostly remember that they do indeed have air condition

actually my favourite czech movie is based on a fairytale where a guy can't get a job and everyone asks him to go to hell..... so he goes to hell and gets a job there. the movie has a pretty different story but it's absolutely fantastic. It's called S čerty nejsou žerty, or  Give the Devil His Due in english. not sure if it exists subbed anywhere though

...how I'm alive even
My bff was today in my house until now. It's freacking 11:20 in the night
She was all like ''let's play!'' ''Let's dance!'' ''Let's see videos!'' etc
I can't with my life anymore gosh //Jumps to bed

as for my gender thing, today I feeled like both genders at the same time? like, I acted like a boy but suddenly like a girl. Is that something or just something natural that happens? It's weird but i didn't feeled as a girl or boy 100%
how even
I am floating away, lost in a silent ballet.

Just act like yourself ? :) It was the best advice I've read yesterday.

So I have a little job dilemma on my hands. I've been working at the same dead-end boring job for the past three years. The pay is good and the people are nice, but that's about it. This position opened up today within the company which would suit my shift- and it's the first one in two years that I've been almost qualified for- but here's the catch: It sounds like it'll be almost the same thing, if not something worse, to what I've been doing so far.
Now I am seriously considering applying tomorrow, but I'm afraid if I get the job and it turns out even crappier than what I previously did, I'd be stuck with it. But if I don't apply then I've wasted a chance. I have no idea what to do! Have any of you been in a similar situation before?
