Can anyone give me tips for a job interview? For example what to answer when they ask me a question.
DaxtotheMax repliedJust be straight up, let them ask the questions. I had one before and they asked if I had extracurricular activities or something and I said I used to play soccer but not anymore. They asked "How do you spell soccer?" Who should be the one doing the interview again?
Merilly repliedThey also like to ask about weaknesses and strengths. Be sure to be able to answer those and think of something beforehand because you may have a hard time to come up with these things in a stressful situation. Also be sure to keep eye contact and have a firm but not crushing handshake when it is offered to you. It suggests confidence, which is usually appreciated.
Merilly repliedI would also read up on a few courtesy rules for your country. For example, where I live, it's considered polite to accept something to drink if it's offered to you, even if you're not thirsty. There's also different guidelines depending on the job you apply for.

What happened if the minimum wage goes up?
Dave repliedIt means that you will be able to have a higher standard of living until capitalism decides it likes its class system too much and raises the prices on everything to keep the glass ceiling firmly in tact.
Komali repliedIt means that under normal circumstances more people will lose their jobs more or less, because companies don't want to pay for higher wages. It doesn't mean that prices will rise, because the price level depends more on the demand and not on wages.

The Transcendent Key repliedThat's the spirit! Anything is worth something! You'll see, doors are opening for you!

My life isn't doing to well, but I try to be positive that things will get better. It's just getting a little worse every time
Snow repliedhello neppy, i am here to tell you to not get your chin waves in a boogie
things will turn out all right, i believe in you
IwasBornAsVentus repliedStay strong and remember that there will be people that care for you. It's powerful to hear you remain optimistic cause that's really difficult usually. But it's ok to feel down as well. Sometimes you haft to let it out too. Eventually things will get better.
The Transcendent Key repliedLike my mom always says: "When things don't go well, just live day by day and trudge along, doing your best to overcome the situation at hand. God makes one day after another, after all." So stay strong of heart, Nep, and don't let life's troubles pin you down! You are a fighting spirit, so I know that you'll always find a way to overcome any problem, ya know? So keep on going, and never back down!

I love how there's a whole bunch of fan art of how innocent Zero is, but in reality she's pretty much a psychopath. Alas I haven't played Drakengard 3 yet, but I still think she's an amazing character (probably one of the best written female chars I've ever seen)

I always wanted to knit but it looks hard.
Mystics Apprentice repliedIt's really not too hard. It's all about just slipping yarn through the loop. Much easier than crocheting, which I could never grasp.
