I work in “cyber” and I’d give my left nut to be a ballerina.

This ad was from last year apparently so it’s not quite as grotesque as it first looks.

Still a shit campaign though. Who even says cyber in 2020?

EDIT: oh you already mentioned that. Sorry. Carry on.

That feels to me like the government are suggesting she sets up an OnlyFans account and moves into sex work. The word cyber hasn’t been used since the early 2000s unless it’s talking about cybersex.

you don’t have to like it but the word is very much “in use”.

I’m sure this has been posted elsewhere, but shit like this makes me feel like the government’s definitely run by the BIGGEST BRANES.

Use the auto-enrolment from the job you no longer have, or the self-employment you’ve had to take in the gig economy (oh wait, that’s not covered by AE) in order to get declined for a mortgage! Ha, suffer! Bleeeaaak.

Love how these ideas just do the rounds every 18 months or so
