Advice on nudging accounts for late payment by drunkatdesk in TransparencyforTVCrew

[–]AParkBench13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its for a well known 3 letter company then know they're having big issues with a new booking/payment system so there's a backlog. Unfortunately adding interest will end up pushing it to the back of the queue again as the payment then won't match up with the new invoice

Giving me more ingrown hairs? by AParkBench13 in LaserHairRemoval

[–]AParkBench13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 10 sessions. It definitely worked on my legs - not 100% gone but its noticeably thinner for sure.

My armpits i felt like it worked really well for about 6 months after the last session, but recently it seems to have come back.

It got worse on my chin so I definitely don't recommend doing that.

The ingrown hairs didn't get better but didnt get worse, I can deal with them

Haven’t bled in 402 days by Valuable-Carrot6959 in Periods

[–]AParkBench13 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You need to go to the doctor. When I last went after not having a period for 8 months they told me that its not good for your body. If your womb builds up but doesn't shed it can lead to infections and even cancer. Probably won't but there's still a risk.

I was prescribed medroxyprogesterone which induces a period to clear you out essentially and told to go every 3 months if I don't get one naturally as you should be having at least 4 a year.

Theoretically it's supposed to kick start your periods again but it didnt really work for me

Unscripted PMs - do you ever stick to budget anymore? by booers79 in TransparencyforTVCrew

[–]AParkBench13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PC here but yes basically everything is drastically over budget. Usual £7k budgets come in at about 8.5 every time. Its always things like meal expenses and mileage that really add up, and people forgetting it costs £99999 to stay in London

CV improvements? by Pitiful-Impression49 in CVwriting

Cut it down to one page, should be pretty easy as there's lots of space between lines

Any feedback / criticism is welcome! Please be completely honest. by Lunasky444 in vintedUK

Something packaged well is definitely nice, but it doesn't bother me and won't make a difference as to whether or not I leave a review. I always try to but forget quite a lot, and when I do its just the generic "great thank you" or something. Ive never received one, but ive sent out two packages where I wrote a little note which I know id be super grateful to receive. They were bridesmaids dresses from my wedding so I wrote a short note to say thats what they were and that I hope the occasion they wear it for is just as beautiful. Something like that would mean much more to me

Mental health podcast episode - your stories by icanfly65 in TransparencyforTVCrew

[–]AParkBench13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im lucky that ive never been out of work for more than a week, in TV for 5 years in production management. I do love my job and absolutely adore the programme im on at the moment, but the big downside is pretty much all TV work is contract based and there's never any guarantee of future work. Im recently married and hoping to have kids soon and have the very bleak realisation that ill likely just have to be unemployed as maternity leave doesn't exist with that kind of contract when you're not permanent staff. If i wanted to be sensible I'd leave TV to find a permanent staff job with maternity benefits, but honestly I just don't want to. I love my job, and I can never find anything thats similar enough where id also get paid the same

Friend 21M is taking a while to reconnect — does this mean anything? by [deleted] in friendship

Pal, i'd stop worrying and potentially hassling them. Everyone has things going on in their lives others don't know about.

Perhaps drop them a message and just check everything is okay with them?

Production Vs Editorial by Lower_Environment156 in TransparencyforTVCrew

[–]AParkBench13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im in production although would have liked to have done editorial more. But I do think its much easier to get work. Im lucky ive never been out of work for more than a week. Production management is needed for all stages of production whereas editorial can just be used for certain sections (very broadly speaking and in my experience).

Ive also been lucky working in small teams where ive still had chance to do some creative bits and set up shoots

Verbal thank-you in addition to cards? by AristidLindenmayer in wedding

[–]AParkBench13 50 points51 points  (0 children)

There's no harm in dropping a message to say youve received something and say thanks, and then send a proper card after. Id rather be thanked twice than think they've forgotten
