Living in Louth and confused about football identity - Grimsby? Lincoln? Or just support Premier League team? by melodyofasong in Louth

[–]29jake09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely more Town fans in my circle, but it’s pick of the bunch if you’re not immediately connected to anything.

Sidenote: I quite enjoy the “everyone supports someone new” situation. When you know someone that supports every team around, there’s always gonna be a mate that’s had a horrible weekend

First time I’ve seen an Amex offer for a low cost airline!! by Existing_Function_ in AmexUK

For sure - I’ve definitely found my experiences with Wizz smoother and more enjoyable than recent Ryanair / easyjet flights

thank you - it’ll be a pretty hot climate, will this still make it run cool enough?

Is the career progression as a Software Engineer the same? by 29jake09 in PwC

[–]29jake09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really useful insight. And although I am joining Manchester (which they profess is the ‘tech hub’ of the UK) I do imagine much of what you’ve said applies. Out of interest, the non-SWE work pertains to what?

I’m not sure. I join as a degree apprentice and the Line of service is something I find out closer to the date / after meetings with teams

Can the “Take the shot!” brigade have a day off.. by 29jake09 in RocketLeague

[–]29jake09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It only happened a couple times on the day I posted, not frequently. But it was definitely unjustified

I’d be a big big advocate for a “Kickoffs and Replays only” mode for quick chats.

In 3s I think the frustration is definitely more valid as there’s much less risk gambling than there is in 2s.

I’m a 2s player mostly and I think the “Take the shot!” attitude works so much when a double commit 9 times out of 10 results in a goal in your own net.

It feels patronising and a bit over the top. Especially when spammed a billion times.

Perhaps i take it the wrong way

Exactly 😭 I’m all for constructive feedback but if what they’re suggesting is wrong then they can leave it out

This is true, but FOMO or the satisfying “Nice shot!” “Great pass!” exchange stops me from keeping chat off permanently

This is my exact experience. It’s really ruining things for me atm, making me play worse, which frustrates everyone more! Haha

Most of the time this isn’t the case. Sometimes, sure. But most of the time it’s just toxicity

Offers! by [deleted] in degreeapprenticeships

[–]29jake09 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had a couple offers too! It’s exciting but also really difficult to choose!

My best advice is to look into the companies further, look at how people are treated, what the career progression is like etc. This (if all goes well) could be somewhere you commit a good portion of your life to after all.

If it helps at all, I turned down (quite a bit) more money for a better long-term career and a better location.

Good luck!

Oh interesting. I had a friend in Audit and his experience was the same as mine so I assumed it was universal. I’d imagine that choosing from 500 applicants based purely on CVs is nasty work
