It isn't exactly a dream job, but what I would quite like currently would be 1st line tech support, with a view to qualifications and progression
Downside would be dealing with retards pretty much all day, every day, and having to continually repeat the phrase 'Have you turned it on and off again?'

Alt: I'm a big fan of Behemoth, especially the track 'Ov Fire And The Void'. It's odd because I wouldn't normally listen to that sort of stuff, but I just think they're brilliant. They're absolutely astonishingly good live too.

I'm 2nd line now
Its way better that 1st line! The 3rd line boys are the lucky ones though, they get to fuck about with remote control helicopters in their massive office and play minecraft all day

It simply said "You lost The Game".

What the hell is The Game?

You fucking bastard
Now I have to text the missus and advise her of the same. She is not going to be impressed with you, sunshine.

We introduced her sister to The Game a few years ago. She is the single most competitive person I have ever met. She absolutely could not deal with the concept of a game that you can't win. I honestly thought her brain was going to prolapse out of her nose.

I get the feeling I haven't done the right thing here.

You can expect a torrent of tall blonde dancing abuse (worst of all the abuses)

Why not mentally file it under "bloody pointless" and ignore it?

I WOULD IF I COULD
In all seriousness, it's a running joke between us and several friends, you'll have to take my word for it that it can be a giggle. When stoned.

Everything is essentially bloody pointless

But hey ho we do these things because they're fun.

That explains a lot.
I'm far happier single than I ever was in a relationship.

You really, really don't want to do that.

If it means career progression, it's something I'd want.
The only way for me to move anywhere in this company is out of the door, as there's only 2 people in my department.

Yeesh.
Your brain will turn to mush dealing with idiots. But if it is what you want to do, go for it.

It is bloody hard work sometimes, and if you end up stuck on a service desk like I am... oh dear. I'm doing my best to get to 2nd line for now though.

I already deal with idiots on a daily basis
Them: "Is it you that we order our keycards from?"
Me: "I'll have a look for you. Just to check, do you know what cards you use?"
Them: "Yes, it's CISA, it's on this delivery note. Oh look, your name is on it! Does this mean we've ordered from you before?"
Me: *facepalm*
