  • As someone who’s done shift work the overwhelming majority of their career, fatigue is worse than being drunk.

    30hr sleep debt has you feeling horrible, struggling to focus, 40hr sleep debt has you acting drunk, feeling worse and bordering on dozing off.

    I had a week long caffeine withdrawal once due to not realizing how hard I was leaning on caffeine to get through each day. Week off came around, stopped all the coffees and spent most of my week of sweating bullets, shaking and in pain. Never again.

    I hadn’t considered (on more than a surface level) this viewpoint, I do agree wholeheartedly regarding getting your money’s worth doesn’t necessarily come down to ownership, but rather enjoyment/fulfillment.

    I held a micro$hit game pass subscription for quite a while, and (almost) always felt I was getting my money’s worth out of it, if not for game pass, there’s quite a few games I’d never have considered buying, some of these have been the most enjoyable I have played.

    With that said however, I much prefer not having to worry about a game in my library disappearing because a license ran out, or it was dropped from a service. I spend about 80% of my gaming budget on discounted stuff, usually a couple years after release, when most of the bugs are ironed out.





  • Honestly mate it’s a case of shopping around.

    For instance, look up a bunch of reviews, go into a bunch of commercial places and ask who does their cleaning (if it meets your standards of course). Most commercial cleaning companies also do domestic work, you can also in some instances get a single clean done, whatever areas you do/don’t want cleaned and see what the final cost is.

    Cleaning company I used to work for almost always overquoted, on the grounds that we gave the worst possible out come in terms of price, and most clients were pleasantly surprised at the outcome.

    There are also many who underquote to lure clients so don’t rush in finding a good cleaner.
