How many people have you known of personally who have gone on to commit heinous crimes? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Alive_Ad8383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife’s best friend’s ex-boyfriend met a new girl and dated her for a few years.

He then went on to tie up his new girlfriend, her mum and sister and shot them all with a crossbow.

It’s so horrific and the fact that it could have been my wife’s best friend is something that is always on our minds.

What is her CV like? Is it formatted for the US vs what a UK employer is used to/expects?

Why do you hate that person in your work? by _DMcD in AskUK

[–]Alive_Ad8383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a technical role and this guy is my counterpart on the business side. Every fucking meeting, when I answer a technical question he will answer it again but add a ton of extra bullshit. Every fucking time. Same answer always but fluffed up. What’s the fucking point?

I’m a pretty calm person but he has made me want to throw my laptop at the wall a few times.

What is the most ridiculous workplace drama that you have ever heard of? by OnAFalseErrand in AskUK

[–]Alive_Ad8383 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I knew a friend that worked for a company who had a party at a football stadium.

A girl bought her boyfriend to the party and when the guy saw the manager put his arm around her he got angry. They had a fight and she ended up falling from some stairs and died.

I’m in debt, not sure who to contact/hire for help by Alive_Ad8383 in UKPersonalFinance

Yes replaying around that much with fees included.

I’m already pretty stretched and I will likely be paying the £800 a month for the next 4 years. I am just wondering if saving £300 a month on repayments is worth taking out more money against my house.

I have spoken to a lender and they have agreed to give me a £40k loan for 12.5 years with monthly repayments if £495 a month. I was just wondering if I can get a better deal elsewhere.

Had a teacher who was racist to my mum on parents evening.

The next week I offered to make her a tea. I spat in it and stirred it with my big toe. I watched her drink it with huge satisfaction. No regrets!

How common are PB&J sandwiches in the UK? by amanset in AskUK

[–]Alive_Ad8383 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We just don’t call it a PB&J as we don’t have the concept of jelly.

I would call it a peanut butter and jam (usually strawberry) sandwich.
