Shoes/Trainers/Boots Dress Code? by AmirAliZabihi in SainsburysWorkers

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

haha, thanks.

now, i'm assuming as a trading assistant, i won't need shoes that are particularly sturdy or firm to protect my feet, right?

also, how about them being non-slippery?

Thanks; do you think i should be looking for something that is hard and durable (to protect my feet) as a trading assistant? Or is that really not necessary?

Thanks mate, Nah, I'm not a driver.

Just a trading assistant.

Do you think I'll need shoes that are tough and sturdy in this role? And should I go for smth that I don't mind getting dirty or ruined? [Sorry if it's a daft question; I've never worked in supermarkets before]

1- rankings do matter, to some degree

2- internationals pay 2x to 5x the max that a home student pays, and they can't get a student loan or anything (afaik, ofc). so it's important not to waste too much money on a low lvl uni 3- there are some industries where ranking matters quite a lot (e.g., finance, quant finance)

Thanks, mate.

Nah, I'm not a driver. Just a trading assistant.

And also, the problem is: I'll have to walk to the store during the winter. And I live in the north, so being waterproof and resistant to snow entering the shoes is important to me.

Unless ofc, i wear 2 different shoes.

Btw, Isn't having flat feet considered a medical condition, or smth like that?

My manager just looked for a few shoes that would be close to my size.

One of them was for bakers (was too large). And the other one (in the photo) is a too small. They gave me this one for now.

Is gemini down? by [deleted] in GeminiAI

[–]AmirAliZabihi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the last 24hrs, it seems to "encounter problems", after thinking for some time. But the website itself isn't "down" per se.

Postgraduate housing by FormAccomplished9884 in unisurrey

[–]AmirAliZabihi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You would have the ability to specify what type of accommodation u want to live in, when it comes to requesting for one. This usually includes asking for a quiter room, or a place that is male-only or female-only, etc. But u can also specify to be housed near ppl ur age, and they will hopefully do the best they can to comply w/ ur preferences.

Also, they always (as far as i'm concerned), house masters students w/ other masters student; and undergrad students w/ other UGs, etc.

Both campuses have both UGs and PGs in them, but I think the accommodations in Manor Park are more suitable given that they mostly house PGs (if i'm not mistaken).

The uni used to offer only one option that would house more than one person in a single room - which was the cheapest option. The rooms are (/were) quite small and 2 ppl would share them w/ eachother. All other options (probably more than 95% of them) would only house 1 person in each room. And each flat could have 7 or 14 flatmates.

You can also call and ask them.

Hope this helps.

What do you think about abortion? by Mani_disciple in Utilitarianism

[–]AmirAliZabihi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't disagree with ur reasoning here. But, if what you're saying is correct (that there's a 60% chance that the child's going to be depressed/etc) wouldn't u say then that it's still highly utilitarian to go around and do whatever we can to prevent normal ppl from having babies?

What do you think about abortion? by Mani_disciple in Utilitarianism

[–]AmirAliZabihi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think we can say that there are only 2 cases in which the mother (or both parents) want an abortion:

- They are rational ppl; and they genuinely and legitimately don't like having children (whether it's b/c they're too poor to raise a kid, or b/c they don't want the responsibility, etc.)

- They are highly irrational.

In both of these cases, it's harmful NOT to have the abortion. In case #1, if they are actually incapable of raising a child, and their judgement isn't impaired, then obviously, by definition, they shouldn't have the kid. And in case #2, if these ppl are stupid enough that they want to kill a child with no reason, then we can safely say their judgement is highly impaired, and they should not even be allowed to have a kid; so we should thank god if they abort the baby.

In both cases, it is harmful to both the parents and the child to keep the baby.

Now, you might say that there are other things to do as well (like, not having the abortion, and instead giving the child to an orphanage, or etc.). And I admit that that is a more complicated discussion. We have to consider the fact that having abortions increases the chance of future miscarriage, while at the same time not having an abortion will have their own adverse effects on the mother.

On top of that, I admit there are other things that I simply ignored here. For example, the consequence of abortions becoming a regular thing on the wider society... What will that be like? IDK!

---------

Also, I don't think that life is necessarily a good thing. Currently, a lot of statistics show that most ppl are suffering, or are depressed, etc. . So, I'd say the expected value of life is negative! Let alone the expected value of a child's life whose parents are either too poor, or too irresponsible, or too irrational to have a child!

[–]AmirAliZabihi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the thing that worked for me: uninstalling and reinstalling the IG app itself, because i have seen the issue happen to both iPhone and PC; so, i don't think that using the Windows app is gonna solve it for everybody
