Mistakes I’ve Made In My Job Search
I’ve been unhappy in my workplace for a while and decided it’s time to change jobs. I remember when I was a student at college, I struggled to land a job, but eventually managed to secure jobs in the care sector. It has been a rewarding job, but at the moment the disadvantages are highly outweighing the positive aspects of the work. Because of this, I have decided to look for other work that is both higher paying, less stressful and also a new challenge for me. I think it’s the right time for me to try something different and after a long job search, I feel I have come to the conclusion why it’s not quite working as well.

Why Season 16 of The Apprentice is the Best Comedy the BBC Have Produced For Years!
The Apprentice started off as a British adaptation of Donald Trump’s show The Apprentice where candidates take part in weekly tasks and the winner gets a job whilst the others get fired week-by-week. In later seasons of the UK show, the prize of a job was scrapped and it was replaced with a £250K investment from Lord Sugar.

Replika
Introduction If you like games such as Sims or Tomodachi life, then I think you will enjoy this app. I can see the appeal this app will have. The fear of technology taking over your life is also an understandable one too. I think a lot of people use Replika to create their ideal date and chat with them. The app is a free download, but a lot of their features are premium. The idea that you can start a relationship with a fictional avatar for £43 a year is crazy. I can’t see myself ever wanting to pay for this, but I’d be interested to see what the video chat with your avatar would look and sound like. You might be wondering why I downloaded it? I thought it would be a fun way to interact with my original characters.

What They Don’t Tell You About Care Work
Care work is advertised as being hard work, but also rewarding. Stock pictures of the elderly laughing and smiling and having a piece of mind that everything is sorted for you. When browsing through job advertisement, so many jobs are care work. I still get many messages from care companies encouraging me to apply to work for them, even ones far away from me. People might come to care work thinking it’s all about wiping bums and making cups of tea. There is so much more to the job than that.

Found in Translation
How I got translated as an indie author I was always curious what my work would look like in another language. I wasn’t aware of the options available until I found Babelcube. Then I also discovered Tektime and Fiberead through social media. These three sites follow the same system: you up.pad your work, wait for it to be picked up by a translator then it will hopefully be published in your chosen language. The standards of the translations are exactly the same between these three sites. The only difference is the facilities.
