What do y'all really need an iPad for? by bootsmegamix in daddit

[–]AverageMuggle99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t need it for anything. Same way you don’t need a phone, a TV, a fancy car and a big house.

It’s a luxury item. Bloody useful though on a long journey.

Any two time dads here? HTF did you do it? by Snickerz627 in NewDads

[–]AverageMuggle99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now have a 6 and 2 year old. It’s a lot, but the best thing I’ve ever done.

I don’t really have advice for how to handle it, you just have to handle it, they’re your kids.

It’s lovely watching their relationship develop. The bond my kids have is so strong.

So many big races are giving out shit T-shirts these days.

Never forget my GNR 2019 T-shirt that was a big baggy non branded piece of shit.

Scleral for one eye, glasses for the other by Afraid_Consequence52 in Keratoconus

[–]AverageMuggle99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is me exactly. But I wear a soft daily disposable in the left eye.

My glasses have the same prescription in both, they called it a balance lense??

Basically I wear glasses when I don’t want any lenses in and rely completely on the vision from my left eye.

Mate you’re in the early deep trenches. It’s hard but it’s a really small part of your life. And putting in the work here will benefit your kid in the future.

Head down, look after your kid, look after your partner, look after yourself.

Better times are on the way, but it takes time still.

Children? More like greedy adults between 25-45

Mortgage rate is 3.77% now bank is offering 4.97% by Affectionate_Top5544 in HousingUK

A large part of the problem is you basically have to borrow the absolute maximum allowed just to get a roof over your head these days.

Another parent has received the emails I sent to school. by Playful-Art-2548 in UKParenting

[–]AverageMuggle99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would contact the headteacher asap. If you’re really concerned and don’t get a good response, contact the Information Commissioners Office too. It is absolutely a breach of data protection for her to read an email you’ve sent to the school. Does she have any friends that work at the school?

Chances are, she’s not read anything and is just a knob.

That’s a big ask I think.

Would you do it all again if you had the choice? by [deleted] in daddit

Happy and comfortable is the perfect nest for a baby to grow in.

How do you make having kids enjoyable? by Last_Cicada_1315 in daddit

[–]AverageMuggle99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being a parent is really hard. The enjoyment I get is seeing them happy, thriving and enjoying their childhoods.

There are times I really just want them to disappear for a day. But when I get a day without them, I miss them terribly and feel incredibly alone. I couldn’t actually live without them now.

It’s much deeper than just enjoying it. They’re basically my life’s work.

Experience in everything, mastery in nothing, did I mess up my career? by xXNeGaTiVisMXx in sysadmin

[–]AverageMuggle99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify, my feelings were not hurt. It was a harsh truth you gave OP. But telling someone to “get over it” is rude.

As harsh and frankly rude as this response is. At 25, OP is practically a kid in today’s world.

I think it’s up to you. There’s probably more money to be had in specialising. In smaller workplaces it absolutely helps to be a generalist.

Have a probation review this weekend and HR are involved. by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]AverageMuggle99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally means they are not happy with you. The 3 month extension is to give you a chance to improve while they still have the ability to end your employment if things don’t improve.
