Looks like President Musk is still in charge.

    Legitimately, I’d argue that it makes more sense than “slammed” since it likely alludes to backstabbing. I don’t think I was ready for that sharp of imagery this morning, but I won’t argue with the wording.

    Anyway, what’s with your obsession with US politics, you damn foreigner?? (Congratulations again)

      Hey, I’m still a U.S. citizen too! Actually, I didn’t qualify for a “communications officer” job at the Royal Mint because I have dual nationalities.

      Because, you know, they might tell me something secret that they want the public to hear, what with it being a communications officer position.

      And thanks again.

        I get their concern. It may not be the “what” so much as the “when” of the information.

        edit: I’m still crossing my fingers for you finding a UK job, though. I’m sure you’re looking at the same places I am for you. I see there was a position for video editor open on the Isle of Mann just 4 months ago, so I have high hope for your prospects!

          I have sent out you have no idea how many CVs. Literally hundreds for every open job, plus cold to anyone I can think of. But unfortunately I have been looking at a bad time because almost everyone’s going to be gone through the new year. I’m betting I will get a bunch of interviews in the first couple of weeks of January. I still plan to be over there by the end of the month if at all possible, but I can’t until I get work. My family can’t even get a family visa if I live there earn less than £22,000 a year, so I have to have a job before I go.

          Thanks for the help!
