Good things inside to compensate for it
not arriving at the presumed destination of home.
Me at my desk writing this email.
Hi chums,
Don’t ask me when I started caring about football — I don’t know. However it’s raining and I am feeling gloomy, BUT we’re overcompensating for the lack of success from last night and opening up a bunch of new spaces for you to become a video reviewer for Watch Humans Try It!!
As we continue to build the app, we want you to help us shape the app around your experience.
We send you a load of free products in the post from the coolest, ethical companies, and you upload a video review of it. If you’re thinking '“Ew, I hate filming myself.” — so did I.
If you’re someone who thinks very highly of their own opinion (me), it’s actually super fun once you get into it, and you get to be someone with esoteric knowledge of consumer goods. Walking around the shop is made 10x more fun when you’ve tried and tested loads of it. Sign up and see what’s inside below.
In other goings on, Adam asked me to write about the gig economy. I said sure, let me Google that. So read about what “the gig economy” actually means, and our retail expert Phil’s experience managing a Flying Tiger store, because life isn’t only about working for quirky startups and thinking you’ve got to be a founder of the next big thing.
The worst work story competition is open again (again), so submit your horrors the the chance to win £100. I was going to ask you to submit your worst hangover stories, but I don’t think I’ve got the minerals or stomach for that, so maybe I’ll save that around the festive season.
A lovely selection of jobs, as always, at the bottom.
Love, Isobel xox Editor of GJFBP
