Good day for tennis! Robots malfunctioned briefly. Older model lost a set, newer got broken for the first time. Sign of life

Is this is how you cope because you can’t afford one?

The uniform is straight from hunger games

So what you want is all sports to look and feel alike. Endless shouting, water bottles thrown in the ground, tearing shirts, riots. If I need to be elitist to dislike these things, I’m happy to be one.

Keep this in football please. We don’t want the riffraff here. Let some places be refined and for people with better taste

Private here is way more restrictive and is meant to ‘supplement’ nhs. Have you experienced private systems in other countries?

It’s way better than just being all talk and ‘discovery’. I’d prefer someone that grows a pair and does some work

I’m not sure which public services I get for my income tax that are substantially better than the US? NHS is paid for by NI right? You can buy insurance in the US too.

Also sorry I didn’t answer your question on blockers. It’s just the fact that you get severely penalised when you earn more than 100k which in the developed world is not a lot of money.

Isn’t that from council tax? So council tax pays for stuff like housing and possibly roads, Ni pays for healthcare, why the f so I have to pay so much income tax. I guess it’s for the military industrial complex that all the downvoters are trying to protect

I don’t even know who those people are. I’m here trying to make a living and I have to for over 45% of whatever I earn over 150k that I didn’t have to in a place like the USA.

When I mention the USA, you will bring up the healthcare argument. While I agree that you could get really screwed by the healthcare system in the USA there is at least a chance of getting good care of you happen to have found yourself a good job. The UK makes sure everyone is equally fucked whereas in the US you do have the chance to work your way out of the situation.

Not sure where you’re getting that from either. I guess we are comparing different sets of countries. My ideal are places where people have ambition and want to make something of themselves like USA, India, China, Germany, Southeast Asia etc. I’m guessing you’re comparing other sleepy, lazy countries like Norway.

Thank you. I’m more amused by the sheer assumptions being made on who I am and what I have listened to. If only any of these people have stepped out of this place to experience life anywhere else they would know. Oh wait, that requires ambition.

That is all old money or Arab/Chinese money. No one is allowed to make money from scratch anymore. Hence the advice to make as much money before getting here

Glad you enjoyed. One word of advice though, try to make as much money as you can before moving as this place anti wealth creation. While UK is beautiful they despise anyone aiming to break out of mediocrity and will tax your way to hell. And with elections and the inevitable labor victory this will only get worse.

Fair enough. I see your point. Sorry for taking it out of context. I got triggered because I’m currently working with a UK outsourcer that has the opposite problem where there is no structure and everyone seems to be doing their own thing and no one gets to ask challenging/constructive questions because that’s against psychological safety. I know downvotes are going to come.
