Need to do my almost nearly re-watch of Babylon 5 soon. I just did Smallville and discovered Michael Rousenbalm and Tom Welling are doing a podcast on the show as well, which is cool., been a lot of fun. Wow, it's hard to think that when I first started here, my now 20 year old daughter was basically a baby. Time flies when you are feeling numb I guess.
I did one recently and posted an article concerning it:

B5 IS very much true to it's own "internal canon" but J. Michael Straczynski is simply a better writer than Rick Berman. Also, a lot of the dialogue in DS-9 felt "forced" whereas B5 feels more natural (again more of a writing style). I think you are underrating Avery Brooks though, Sisko was an excellent character, especially in the last 3 seasons of DS-9. I love both shows, but B5 will always hold a higher regard in my heart G'Kar will ALWAYS remain quite possibly my favorite Sci-fi character, but a great deal of that comes down to Andreas Katsulas performance, and the touching monologues he had.

If that does not touch your heart, nothing will.
Hi GF!

Going to move this to the Babylon 5 thread to keep things easier to locate.

Ah! Have you tried posting it on the Social site? Things seem easier to post there in some instances.

Random banter - Companies and recruiters who ghost you and they give you false pretence that they are going to make a difference in your life but all they doing it is to collect your data and only to be told that the employers is not looking for anyone. I had to blast it at them for ghosting me.

Yeah I got a generic reply saying that we will keep your information and I was told to apply straight as applications are filling up fast. I reported them to ACCC and Fairwork as well. What was the point of you wasting my time and their time sending the email? I told them next time don't send my resume in front of a employer or hiring manager if they are not too keen on hiring me or not interested in hiring me.

Yes man I am from Australia too. How should I respond to them? They seem to hire people internally a lot these days and it's challenging for me to break into IT sector. I am earning minimum wage at the moment like $23 per hour I have had enough of doing call centre work.

Small world -I work one of the partners of coles. I think some people are just suffering from depression because they push themselves past the limit. Sadly, the system favours the lazy, the one who does bear minimum, or the bully. I worked for centrelink previously, worst place ever - I was heavily gaslighted and abused by the staff and I am still suffering from PTSD as a result the trauma they put me through.

I am Prepared to tear a hole in not only the boss, but the 2IC that I have known for 18 years apart. I have had enough of the bullshit (for a multitude of reasons) You push an ENFP that far, you get the shadow, and in that state, I am not nice, I am an outright bastard. I am logical, destructive and dismissive of feelings, and I do it concisely, and I don't care. My Concience demands it. You (the person) needs to be destroyed.

They will show you the door if you react like that especially if your behaviour comes across as aggressive whether passive or non-passive because it can perceived as a unprofessional behaviour. But at my current company they've frozen everyone they cannot move sideways or upwards at all.

Update: I spoke to the CEO of the recruitment company. They were making a mistake of sending my old resume that only included the recent most experience where I deliberately left out the other Government experience I had and they were making a mistake of not telling the employer that. The CEO says she will take my feedback and they will work for the quality control to improve and make sure I get a better job soon.

Of course I was kind. Dude it's not like I took them to court as well. I was being very kind to the CEO as well.
