My friend, an immigrant to my country, was laid off two weeks ago and wasn’t able to land a new job. She was 4 months away from getting her PR, but without a new job, she wouldn’t qualify. After many stressful nights of crying, doing resume review and interview practice, she YOLO’d and sent the CEO of her old company an email asking to be employed until she got the PR, and the CEO simply said “Sure”.
Absolutely crazy, and rare to see that sort of compassion. I’m super happy for her, even though it might be awkward, but getting over this cusp will lock her in on her new life.

Currently floating about on one on an alpine lake and it’s completely silent and nature is just fuckin amazing so why disturb it. Just trundled past a duck family and they barely moved

When I thought about this guy every time I went out of my way to fuck shit up
Haven’t had a smoke or vape in more than a week now. I know I’m not out of the woods yet but this is a big achievement for me.
I got a picture of mine featured in a newsletter on Buzzly.
