I like Cheers. I like Frasier better, though.

And even coming from a British person it can still get annoying after a while

Because you're likely referring to my former roommate, who always says, "Cheers" and is equal parts likeable and hateable. And anyone who listens to that much Morrisey is GD exhausting.

Maybe I'll stop signing my emails like that. I worked in a brewery for a long time so it just became how I signed off. *Shrug* haha

Bc they're not British and they're not buying you a drink

Because you don’t have enough real problems in life, you have too much time and energy on your hands, or you’re unkind? This kind of cynicism where people going around “hating” others for such incredibly mundane reasons is a way bigger and more damaging workplace problem than how someone signs their name in an email.

I need some advice. I got a new job back in may of this year. Very excited for a new opportunity to learn some new things and get a higher paycheck.

I also work fully remote. I am feeling very unfulfilled and not sure what I should do next. I am very self motivated and want to make great work but not sure what to do.
