you don't use any forks, but rather the large spoon.
Haha, no 'fence zhao, but jokes seem to go over your head so often on here, your poor brain must think it lives next to Heathrow airport.

I left University thinking it was a waste of time and money, seeing that what I was studying wasn't particularly vocational (philosophy, see: useless), and because of the time involved.
My caution paid off: now I work a low-functioning government job where I waste all of my time staring into the void for 8 hours a day.
It's true, lying has a higher success rate than almost anything else.

Spent the past year working for myself as a graphic designer. Its been ok, not big money but enough to pay the mortgage and feed my unhealthy CD buying habit. Things are getting tight this year as the fear of the credit crunch the media has successfully instilled in people kicks in. Seeing work drying up all over the place, and plenty of designer freinds in full time positions losing their jobs.
they say entertainment biz is recession and depression proof
nah i knew it was a joke, a straight reply does not mean the humor was unrecognized. but why would you use something so minor to have a go at me? no offense, but you have a petty and repulsive personality.
they say entertainment biz is recession and depression proof
but at the end of the day to a lot of these people what we do is just cake decoration isn't it...
Times like this I wish I had a proper vocation, none of this farting about on computers lark.
I've certainly heard that said although I've never seen the stats - but that in itself doesn't imply that entertainment is recession proof, it could just be that people are switching to a cheaper form of entertainment and this gain was offset by a greater loss elsewhere. Same could be true with video games - in terms of hours of entertainment you get for your buck they arguably represent better value than going to a bar say."Yes, isn't it true that during the great American depression cinema attendance actually went up, or did I dream that?"

Kind of like me too - except I did a maths degree which you might think would make you more employable. When I graduated I moved to London for the night life and stuff and just did dead-end temping jobs. Then I worked in the city trading options and earned quite a lot of money, but I hated it so I quit, spent all the money on frivolities and started doing dead end jobs again - something I've been doing ever since."This is almost exactly identical to my situation, 'cept I studied English Lit, and I don't work for the government."
There is only one guy I stay in touch with from when I was trading (I hated most of the people) and he bought a ferrari two weeks ago with part of his several million pound bonus. I don't even think he's that interested in cars but a hundred grand car is barely a dent in the sum he received. I don't really think I made the wrong decision though.
One of my close friends works in recruitment, and earns what to me is like fantasy money. She earned £10k in one month recently, and that's AFTER tax. I mean, I definitely wouldn't want to do her job, but I can't help but slightly resent her monthly mammoth-spending binges and holiday-after-holiday-after-holiday, which makes me feel even worse, because it's horrible to resent your friends.
