The guy in the picture doesn’t look buff enough to be Kevin Durand. And his chin doesn’t look pronounced enough. Durand is recognizable even in full make-up (like in I Am Number Four).

Besides, he’s not really a big enough name to deserve a tease like this, imo.

Speculators believe so.
With Reedus as hero, 5 other flying niggas in the sky, that makes 6 main leads.
So he had to cut corners on Kevin types.
And with Strain i reckon US recognizes Kevin more than Mads.
In anycase i need female cast, this is turning out to be total sausage fest.
Eva green and Emily blunt please.
Wink

But kojima expressed his fondness for Charlizetheron and Aliciavikander.
He was also said Ryangosling to be in Silenthills.

Reedus,Elba,Mads,Theron,Kevin,Ryan…..no wonder Konami kicked him out.
I think 2 or 3 hit stars are enough, rest cannibalize each other.
Even from marketing point, Reedus alone is enough, put in some famous female like….who is female tv equivalent of reedus nowadays?

Alicia and Charlize would be too expensive.

I’m amazed at the amount of Paralympics coverage here. It’s almost as extensive as the regular Olympics coverage. Gasp


Our most well-known paralympian got silver yesterday on the track, and we had gold in table tennis as well, and another table tennis finalist today (so silver+ there too).


Fun fact: the table tennis player that’s playing his gold medal match this evening, plays at the same club I used to play at.
And the one that won gold yesterday is coached by a player from that same club as well. He (his coach, I mean) is in fact someone I played against a few times back in the day - despite him being quite a lot better than I was. I did give him a good run for his money the first time we played each other, though. Cool

I quit my job on Monday.

I’ve been working there for 10 months and I still didn’t have the permanent contract that I should’ve gotten half a year ago. It doesn’t help that there have been 3 different CEOs in this period and with each new CEO my job description changed drastically - not the long-term plan that was laid out when I started.
Not having a permanent contract means I only have a weekly-renewed contract, so Friday is already my last day. I could’ve been a complete dick and just waited until Friday to announce it (and it would still have been my last day), but that’s not my style.

The announcement has been sent out to all colleagues last night. Response has been odd. There’s something wrong with the company you’re working for, imo, when all the old hands have a “good for you!” reaction and they genuinely seem happy for you…


Anyway, new job start next Monday. Looks promising. Cool

Oh my Timovieman, you’re going through jobs fast. Hopefully you will have a more permanent position now. In any case: congratulations on the new job!

Not my intention. But sometimes circumstances force me to.

Hopefully you will have a more permanent position now.

I hope so too. It’s a multinational this time, could very well be a little more up my alley.

In any case: congratulations on the new job!

Thanks!

Unemployment rate is about 8%, I think, but most of that is going to be Wallonia and Brussels, not as much Flanders where I’m at.

Job market is pretty decent, especially if you’re mid-30s with credentials like mine (or better). Then you’re not going to be without a job long, ever. And even if you are, there’s a great safety net through unemployment benefits.
It’s why we pay so much taxes in the first place.

Good luck with your new job, Timo!  Sometimes you just have to move on, so I hope this one will be a better fit for you.
