JobCentre and despair

[ailbhe]

Another toddle down to the Job Centre, which filled me with despair again. I did get details on some interesting jobs, but I have no particular hope of actually getting any of them. The person I speak to - she's probably called a guidance counsellor or something - is sympathetic, but not helping greatly, as far as I can tell.

So I went out in the rain to try to find the places on my list of places to apply for jobs, failed because it was raining, and found a wonderful Fair Trade shop, full of amazing things I wish I'd bought people for Christmas. I had no money, pootle pootity poot. So I came home again.

Ahh... I think I know the game. It's probably Nuclear War (expansion sets Nuclear Escalation / Nuclear Proliferation). You try to reduce your opponent countries' population by peaceful mean, and when that doesn't work anymore, by throwing A-bombs. Made by BLADE/Flying Buffalo.

Led to comments like the famous 'Ladies and gentlemen, the Vatican is participating...' (for a really small starting population...)
