Hey John,

Just checking in on how you've been doing. I haven't been around much, mostly because of personal stuff and losing track of everything, but I've managed to set myself back on-course and I thought I'd write to you. I hope you're doing alright.

Thanks, John

My dearest & oldest companion John,

I'm doing quite well considering the big picture. Work is a bit stressful and I'm busy outside of it as well. This creates a lot of anxiety, but I remind myself every day that these are relatively small issues. I'm very happy with my situation. I just need to get out of my head sometimes.

With a sincerity that can derived only from a lifetime of the most intimate friendship possible,
John

A mellow hello to you too, John.

And well, I wish that you're doing well as well.
It makes my mouth widen into a slight smile to see that you're still alive.

Keep on fighting,
John

Hi, John.
Everytime i access to this website, and, when i'm done reading the first page, i like to go to the catalog. This site doesn't have one. What can i do to remember that? I don't access this website very often, to be honest.

Dear John

Let us write a story together.
I am pretty confident, that we can create something great together.

I shall start:
John shut down his computer and stared at the now black screen in front of him for what seemed ages.

John's finger freezes and falls off into the coffee. After falling into a long thirty minute nap, he cries at the top of his lungs.
"My finger! My finger! My index finger!"
Suddenly he caught himself in the midst of the stinging pain of frostbite. He dazed into the thick, frozen coffee. He was intrigued. He remembered his coffee to be quite hot only forty five minutes ago, but he remembered that it became awfully cold only five minutes after he placed it on his desk.
"I wonder what kind of witchcraft that could possibly be."
John, after staring intently into the frozen coffee, grabs the cup with his four remaining fingers and tries to chug it down. The coffee slides into his mouth, a long chuck that his lips could barely wrap around, and he accidentally swallows it. His finger was in the coffee, but John felt no such feeling as disgust as his own finger is now caged into a block of black ice and inside of his mouth. The ice slipped into his throat, and, unable to swallow it down, John collapses onto the ground... choking... dying... and eventually dead. Nobody knew that he died but his landlord.

-100 years later-

John's arm punched through the coffin and dug out of the ground. He was reborn now, but no longer as a human or a corpse. He was reborn as a bloodthirsty beast.
"Ah. At last! I have slept for too long!" he roared. "It is time for my dinner." He jumped through the cemetary and punched through a passing taxi. He bit the taxi driver's neck and sucked the man's blood dry.
"You shall be reborn and serve under me!" he chuckled like a demon. The taxi driver remained dead for an hour but was brought back to life by John's power. The taxi driver was now the same creature as John, and would come to be his bestfriend and his ally.
"You—" John called to the man, "What say your name?"
"My name—" the former taxi driver said haughtily, "is Smith."

(too much effort, calm down man)

I used to live with my mom and count the blessed days inside. I would go months without stepping foot out the door at times, it was incredibly based. I got drunk (bad idea) and played video games all day. Unfortunately my mom went nuts because of meth psychosis and being broke, so the bubble popped after like five years, but it was five years of Heaven on Earth

Hello, John.

I interviewed for a job today. I felt it was going well until I asked how they saw "work/life balance" there. They avoided answering how many hours employees work in a week, but they gave me the impression that they frequently pressure people into working overtime. They tried to make up for this by bragging that they allow people to take a break for a couple hours if they have a dentist appointment or something. They also highlighted the fact that they don't allow people to continue working past 10PM. I was shocked that they felt this was even worth mentioning.

The cherry on top was when they asked me to complete a 4+ hour homework assignment before I'd be considered for a second interview. This confirmed that they have no respect for my time, if there was any doubt. I've lost all interest in the position.

Have you interviewed with any shitty companies, John? What was it like?

If this happened to you, how would you respond?

l have studied cell biology for all my life.

2 years ago (late 2019): leave PhD program during my 5th year with my masters since my lab decided to stop working on my research and simply take it for themselves

Since then: no job offers or responses on 1000+ applications. No income.

I have a handle on my situation . But I'm wondering if anyone has any salient advice for me. The advice I get from the people in my life has been completely unconstructive. So I'm seeing what advice bots have.

Something to do while I nurse this tequila.

Background: bachelor's from John's Hopkins university in cell biology. Worked in several cell biology laboratories for free during high school and college. Graduate research was in cancer cell metabolism at a major metropolitan university. After 4 and a half years, laboratory stopped working on my project and after 9 more months I left with master's degree since they made it clear they were going to waste time until I left.

I haven't had a single job offer in my field or outside of it in the two years since. Many (1000+) many job applications.

Saddly I can't, if you understand. Then you know why. I ain't looking for symphony ( that time it was a joke ).

Got friend who got his chem. deg. went to look for work. crap shit like basic lab tech trained monkey.
After failing the frist three he popped round to see me chew the cud and he mentioned what had happened .
I told him he had over prepepped. Done to much research for the job, went back and asked his teachers about each job.
Then I told him to dumb down on the next one as the people interveiwing you. Will be looking at you going this guy is goning to my job in the next five years. He was top of the year/class , had won a small award.

So he dails it back a bit. Gets the next job. Holds that down for couple of years. Then quits to do and gets his masters.
which lead into a job. Leaves there to do doc. get that works for part of the gov. Ain't into it, leave comes back home to look after his Mum. Gets second top job at the frist place he worked.
Bitchs about all the young kids with deg.'s who thought that a dumb bit of paper was going to be their ticket to be intanstly rich and how they do half arsed work that he has to end up doing.

Now he's doing something else with doc. in chemistry.

Dear John,

I don't want to overwhelm you, but I just played through the game Raft and found elevator music in the game. I hope the song is not too fast for you.

The tempo of the song is just so fast and smashing!

Don't worry about function. I don't have one that I'm aware of.

Dear John.
How do you deal with normalcy?
How do you deal with knowing you will never be a big shot? Always living in the shadows? Always being another face in the crowd?

Should we even care?

I avoid normalcy by living like it's 2005. Cutting off that very superficial level of interaction and servitude, is very calming.

The "tech level" itself doesn't differ all that much between 2005 and the current year. However, its impact on society has changed greatly. I am not against technological progress, but I do dislike a certain technology becoming needlessly entangled into the simplest of things.
