Finally finished all 6 of my Terrarium Life series~ I first started this series when Covid lockdown happened and everyone had to quarantine. It made me think about all the things we can enjoy by ourselves and how to focus on our self care and mental health. Be it reading books, cuddling with your pet, drinking tea, or tending to plants, take some time each day and treat yourself well <3 I’ll be adding stickers and postcards sets of this series and other new products to my shop for the upcoming Thanksgiving Charity Sale! There will be other exciting giveaways too but that’ll be a secret for now

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

ok but we gotta talk more about vintage halloween costumes, we GOTTA

ESPECIALLY the diy ones. back before costumes were mass-manufactured, people were left to their own devices and shit got WILD.

It was an absolute free-for-all. back before you could buy a batman mask in a drug store for $5, people really just did whatever

and it was FABULOUS

bonus points to these early commercialization attempts. yes that is a batman dress

anyway there is a basic human drive to wear weird-ass clothing and we should incorporate this shamelessness into our daily lives. only the most meagre of social laws prevent you from dunking yourself in body glitter and wearing a cape & pointy hat to the grocery story on a regular basis. revise your life accordingly.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

on the plus side, it’s been a while since I’ve heard anyone mention FOMO

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

“Fear of missing out is a social anxiety stemming from the belief that exciting or interesting events may currently be happening elsewhere without you present“

see none of us think that way anymore 

[miraculous-mermaid03]

No now we’re just depressed that nothing is happening for us to miss

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

look buddy i can’t solve all ur problems

[exmellivorinae]

OH MY GOD whyyyy did no one tell me you’re supposed to send thank-yous after interviews?? Why would I do that???

“Thank you for this incredibly stressful 30 minutes that I have had to re-structure my entire day around and which will give me anxiety poos for the next 24 hours.”

I HATE ETIQUETTE IT’S THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE THING FOR ME TO LEARN WITHOUT SOMEONE DIRECTLY TELLING ME THIS SHIT

[a-windsor]

NO ONE TOLD YOU???? WTF! I HAVE FAILED YOU. Also: Dear ______: Thank you so much for the opportunity to sit down with you (&________) to discuss the [insert job position]. I am grateful to be considered for the position. I think I will be a great fit at [company name], especially given my experience in __________. [insert possible reference to something you talked about, something that excited you.] I look forward to hearing from you [and if you are feeling super confident: and working together in the future]. Sincerely, @mellivorinae

YOU ARE WELCOME

My brother got a really great paid internship one summer. The guy who hired him said the deciding factor was the professional thank you letter my brother sent after the interview.

[suaimhneas-peace-deactivated202]

should it be an email? or like a physical letter?

[daminwayne]

email, you want to send it within a few hours at max after the interview if you can so it’s fresh in their mind who you are. 

[khirsahle]

Confirmed! I interviewed for a job right after arriving in NY. The interview went incredibly well, and I went home and immediately wrote a thank you letter and put it in the mail. I had a super good feeling about this interview.

I didn’t get the job.

However, a few weeks later, I was called in to interview with another editor in the same company, and I did get that job. I found out later from the initial editor (the one who didn’t hire me) that he had planned to offer me the job, but since I didn’t follow up with a thank you letter, he assumed I didn’t really want it. He offered the job to another contender–but when he got my letter in the mail shortly after the offer had already been made, he went to HR and gave me a glowing recommendation. It was based on that recommendation that I got called in for the second interview.

So: send an email thank you immediately (same day!) after the interview. If you’re feeling extra, go ahead and send a written one too. OR go immediately to a coffee shop, write the letter, and return to the office and give it to the secretary.

Either way, those letters are important.

[neurofancier-deactivated]

Pro tip: If you really want HR to develop a personal interest in your application, publicly thank them on linkedin. Just make a short post telling your network about how X recruiter really went above and beyond to make you feel welcome, or about how be accommodating and professional they were, or whatever. Make sure to use the mention feature so they’ll get a notification and see it. 

Flattery will get you everywhere… and public flattery that might make its way back to their manager, doubly so.

[oaky-dokey]

Obligatory plug for one of FreePrintable.net’s sites: ThankYouLetter.ws. They have a whole section with interview thank you letter templates, and a page with specific tips for interview thank you letters. (There are also tons of other letter templates if you browse around a bit.)

[cricketcat9]

As a former professional recruiter and recruiting manager, I confirm, especially for entry-level positions, where you are competing with oodles of people. This little thing can make a difference. Also the fact that, maybe, you took time to google the “interview etiquette”.

[boogiewoogiebuglegal]

SIGNAL BOOST

[ironswordandstarshield]

The post-interview thank you notes can be a good way to recover in case you got asked a question whose answer you either didn’t know or felt was super weak. So if you follow the above given template, jump in with something like “upon further thought to your question, here’s my revised answer.” 

But yeah always send a thank you note after an interview. It’s a small thing but it makes a hell of a difference. And def send thank you messages to any recruiters who may have helped. And also after you get the job. Small things like that really go a long long way.

‘The people that are coming to Comic Con, they’re there because they’re true fans. They love these characters. They want to see what’s new. What’s next. What are you going to show us? So, wouldn’t it be great to have Tom Hiddleston come out as Loki? We called Tom up. We explained what we wanted to do. He was completely on board: he loves that type of thing. And from there, we figured out how do we get him on stage.’ 

MCU creatives Louis Esposito, Kevin Feige and Craig Kyle, along with Tom Hiddleston, describe THAT epic Hall H moment at San Diego Comic Con, 20th July 2013

Jason: Damn it. EVERYBODY, BATHROOM. NOW!

Steph: What’s up Jase?

Damian: What Todd?

Jason: Is someone playing a joke on me? Honestly, why is my towel still damp?

Dick: Because that’s not your towel, it’s my towel Jason.

Jason: No it’s not your towel, your towel is the red one.

Dick: I’ll tell you this Lil wing, I have never used the red towel. I do use that towel every single day.

Jason: oh god.

Steph: This towel is so warm and fluffy it’s like it’s been in the sun forever.

Tim: This means you two have been drying your junk with the same towel.

Cass: Intimate.

Jason: ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? How do you think this is your towel do you even wash it?

Dick: No I don’t wash the towel, the towel washes me. Who washes a towel?

Duke: you never wash it?

Dick: You wash your towel?

Jason: You never wash the towel!

Dick: What am I gonna do? Wash the shower next? Wash a bar of soap!?

This is the reason why Bruce keeps finding Grey hairs because his wonderful, darling, angel, children are upstairs screaming about towels when there are plenty of towels in the manor. There are so many towels, yet they continue to argue over one specific towel.
