    It's one of my favourite films and I always love the animated version to the live action one. I love all of the 2D style Disney animations so much next to Studio Ghilbi.

    same, to be fair i havent watched the live action version.

    I've watched parts of the live action, it was good but I feel like the animated movie feels more nostalgic to me fair. The live actions focuses more on the relationship dynamics between Gaston and his friend who I keep forgetting his name lol.

    Yes Lefou, they focus more on him in the live actions which is very interesting to see actually, he has more background I think.

    you could always give it a go and then decide when doing the job whether it’s for you or not? sometimes you might think you’ll hate it but realise you do enjoy it or the other way around. as well, many jobs tend to average around 8 hours a day in the uk too.

    @Redemption we'll be here to support you no matter what happens, I promise. I know you've been working on the job searching thing for a long time, and it must take a lot of courage to keep going despite setbacks. I'm confident that you'll find something soon, and I believe in you.

    yh. it’s ok if you don’t do it. if it was me tho i would definitely give it a go and see as i know one of my jobs i thought i was going to hate it but went with it anyways as i needed the money, i needed up working there for over 2 years and didnt want to leave because i loved it so much. but i also got a job i thought i would love, i hated it, i worked there for about a week before i decided to leave. its ok if you dont do it, but i think its always worth trying if you feel able to in case it is something you do enjoy. as you’ve said, you like driving so maybe it would be good?

    @Redemption We will all be here for you no matter what and when I mean that I truly do because I want to see you get work and doing something you love and joy. For most people finding something they enjoy is very hard at times, I know the feeling, I've been there applying for lots and lots of jobs and not getting responses back. It can feel frustrating at times because it makes you think "what now?", but the question to ask is "how can I move from this?". Okay maybe you didn't get the job or realised it wasn't for you but there's still other opportunities out there. Unfortunately for a lot of young people like myself included, the job market is very tough especially under the rule of labour being in parliament too and the current state of the UK too (which is another story for another day 😅). But just because you didn't get what you wanted doesn't mean you won't be able to get it, you still can. It just means it'll be a bit of a longer journey or de tour as i say until you eventually get there. Journeys can be either very long or short but they all work out and it's the progress that counts in a way, that small journey to get where you are.

    As @Mai mentioned most jobs will typically be around an 8 hour week, including retail work and office work too. In my current internship I'm doing full time work Monday to Friday including classroom hours which is equal to 6 to 7 hours which is under the general 40 hour working week which isn't too bad.

    It may be worth having a go at that thing and see how you get on. It might be full time in the beginning but you could potentially be able to do part time, which is what ideally I want to be able to do.
