I completely forgot about the April Fools gag this year. I suspect it's too late now to get star-fucking and Spider-Man sex tending (more's the pity) but it'll still be fun to tool around with it for a couple days.
@Kloi Teachers have a very middle class bias. They have to take marking home (though I think AI marking may be making a difference here now). Quite a lot of salaried middle class professionals take work home as a matter of course.
Having your own business means the government gives you homework in the form of endless forms to be allowed to pay money to avoid being fined for not paying it and then customers need to be talked to, equipment needs to be ordered, accounts have to be kept so they government can tax us and so on. I still say "I am doing my homework".
But I think maybe most of the working world does not have homework. I am often tempted to quit my business and get some simple job and go home and switch off but its hard to give up the independence I find. I keep saying I will do it but I don't. If I can get female and child free and so live cheaper, I might well do it 3 days a week. Not too many years to go there now.
Read MoreI remember a teacher once trying to bullshit me about homework preparing us for the working world. I didn't believe it then and my experience now matches yours: in over 20 years of working various jobs I've never once brought my work home with me.
Once I'm off the clock I'm done with anything work related until I punch in again.
@redpillschool yeah, I can totally see why you limited the amount that would show up lol
@Typo-MAGAshiv glad you enjoyed it. It's always a bit of work but I love doing these things every year
It's kind of fucked up I was given constant homework throughout school but I have never once been given an assignment to take home with me to work on outside of my working day as an employee.
Now as a self employed individual I have definitely taken projects off job site to work on outside of my normal working hours but they were billed accordingly.
For those of you who might be confused by the terminology....
Queen who knows her worth = I'm more expensive than a deluxe escort.
Ambition = Be willing to kill for (my) money.
Emotional intelligence = Be willing to listen to my drivel while nodding understandingly.
Solid communication skills = Talk just like one of my girlfriends.
Effort = Have the enthusiasm (and the self-esteem) of a desperate simp.
Stability = Be an above-average earner who doesn't do cocaine and hookers.
Real energy = Also be the Lothario who brings fireworks into my brain (and panties).
Easy, right?
Calling usually gets you an answer on the spot and you get to actually hear how she feels. The voice tells you a lot that a text can't. It also gives you the chance to come over as warm, smooth, funny and confident (or arse it all up and look awkward and floundering of course).
But my kids almost never call without getting into a text conversation first. They consider it rude, so probably young people will lean to text.
Text also gives her time to just work up the courage to say no thanks or to decide she is not that interested. In the end this is doing you a favour as it saves you wasting your time, if she is not keen.
I think in the end it depends how personal you want to make it but I doubt you will be seen as wrong and too cold if you text.
