Were you ever in a situation where you knew exactly that no mater what you do, you can't change anything, but still everybody expects you to make a decision (to do something, to pick a side, to give your thought on the situatoin)?

I know I have.
I'm asking, because I'm not sure if it's a common thing or is it just me who notices such things, because most people don't see how irrelevant some things really are.

Not really, in life you make all your own choices :blink: .

But being a assistant manager is where it comes down to becoming a simple overseer. You can't really change anything.

To sum it down I hate my job.

CHOOSE a number between 2 and 9 multiply it by 9 then add 4 then add the numbers between each others to get a one digit number (ex 83 :8+3=11 1+1=2)
then count the letter for the number (a=1 b=2 c=3 ........)
CHOOSE a country in Europe wich name starts with the letter
CHOOSE a fruit which name starts with the last letter of the country u chose.



U chose :11-9-23-9 (a=1 b=2 .....)


Morale of the story : sometimes whatever u chose whenever u choose it ull always end up with the same result but ull have a different way to get there.

To answer the question:

Yes.

As for the matter of relevance:

Some people in the world don't believe that anything is irrelevant, for example - those who believe in things like fate.

I myself find many things relevant than many would consider irrelevant. And many people consider things relevant that I consider irrelevant.

In that sense, no matter how irrelevant you may find something, someone else will consider it relevant.

Therefore, it is relevant to that person.

Therefore, no one person's judgement on matters of relevance counts for much when it comes to other people.

To make a long story short, chances are, someone somewhere is probably wondering the same thing about you.

Just my personal opinion

We have this very annoying professor in school...
Noone complains about grades with him, but he's so autochratic that if you say something in contradiction of what he said he'll start to wash your mouth for the next 20 minutes, and the worst thing is that he hates communists but acts like the worst sort of them...
We complained to other teachers, principle, most of them dislike him but they can't do a thing cause the messed up school system is protecting him(the laws), the more we complain the worse he acts...
We can't change a thing...

I think my opinion counts.
When I say no to giving money to yet another foundation, I just made sure I further know what is actually being done with that five bucks. :P

Kumquat or kiwi.

And it only works if you pick Denmark, and susequently Kiwi.

I went with Bulgaria and Apple, which means it made no sense whatsoever.

HA!

? :blink:

I would be interested in knowing how you could pick Bulgaria, since the number you end up with should always be 4. Which should equal D.
