Posted on Mon, 30 Sep 2024

I too was unaware of this fascinating story. Your poem reminds me of the way I felt as a child learning about ancient Egypt at school and not sure how deeply I wanted to delve because the stories felt so powerful.

Posted on Fri, 27 Sep 2024

I personally think that having 40 jobs is far more valuable than a singular long career in a company. As Ozzy Osbourne said, 'If I really wanted a gold watch I could just nick one and do 5 years in jail rather than 30 years working at Lucas's'....
