Go travelling round Asia
one day. I might have to save up my whole life and go when I retire, which would suck somewhat.

I am majorly distressed, as I have just been offered a job I don't want and can't really afford a) to take and b) not to take. The money and location suck but I do *need* a job. I will probably turn it down unless they can offer me a goodly amount more cash but I am now freaking out that I won't be offered another one and will end up on the dole.

If you can't afford the commute on the money they're paying you
then you'll be no better off than you are now.

Well exactly
£24k in London is nothing - and that includes the weighting.

*pats bottom*
actually, my local Asda is in an area which is populated almost exclusively by Asians and wandering round it, you do feel like you're in the wilderness*, so maybe it wouldn't be all that different. And a lot cheaper...


*post apocalyptic landscape of some sort

What's post-apocalyptic about Asians in a supermarket?

Oh, it's not that they're Asian
it's the fact that no matter time you go, it's like something out of a zombie movie.

Because people are wandering round the supermarket?
Are you on glue today, berk?

No, because it's always heaving
everyone moves incredibly slowly, and it's always a complete and utter tip, there's stuff everywhere that shouldn't be.

I go to sainsbury's now instead.

have you never seen people wandering around the supermarket?
blank faces, shuffling walk... groaning to themselves as they realise they forgot to get something back in aisle fourteen?

I see supermarkets as very fast-paced places.
