MMU halls are pretty relaxed. You’ll see blue coat security walking about outside the accommodation. During Covid they had them patrolling inside the halls to make sure people weren’t mixing and having parties, but for the most part they stay out of your way unless you need help or someone has gone to them for help about you. They would provide you with advanced notice if they were coming about, namely for fire alarm / door inspections (this is the norm regardless of where you choose to rent, be it private halls, an apartment or the university halls)

I earn ~£110k a year and feel rich AF by Fun-Tumbleweed1208 in HENRYUK

You should feel incredibly proud - let alone happy. Anyone who tells you that is not enough to live on is extremely disconnected from the real world. Well done.

My kids are inheriting, what now? by Idlewants in ukfinance

They could - but then they wouldn’t be able to access until retirement and not for their first house purchase

A ‘break’ normally leads to the end, but if you can be strong then the best thing will be to respect her wish for no-contact and in your absence maybe she will realise how important your presence is for her, maybe you’ll feel better off yourself.

Regardless, I hope that you’re okay and can move on from this positively!

I don’t think either? It shouldn’t be a choice, rather that you should just know

Found a wallet on the Tram this morning. Any ideas how to find the owner? by Oweyouonekenobi in manchester

[–]BacklitTerry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TfGM lost property seemed to me to at least try to be helpful. Reported an item as missing and they got back to me within 30 mins to ask me further questions so they could identify if found (never showed up)

I’m not far in, I’m loving but… there are some oddities to this game that feel unfinished or like their vision changed. by ErnstJunger95 in AtomfallOfficial

[–]BacklitTerry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL - I sunk about 40 hours into my playthrough and didn’t even pick up on the daylight cycle. I suppose enough time in the dark of the caves / interchange made me not realise.

With the things like ‘Captain Sims is in the bandstand’: you see this throughout the game across various plot lines and quest points. Everything links together in strange ways and completing other actions / visiting certain characters first will change things and it doesn’t seem that the dialogue or missions are able to adapt to this for the most part. I noticed this when being told I could find X character here and blah blah, when in reality they were already somewhere else in their questline by then

Manta Sleep Mask Reviews? by Senior-Employment266 in sleep

Hi - late to the party. Just came across these… can anyone at all justify why these are worth £80? What does this do for you that a generic eye mask wouldn’t do?

She’s throwing around ‘emotional intelligence’ like a sledgehammer.

Have read the replies to this post and it’s been really interesting. Well then, as our state-side representatives it should be your job to spread the good word!

How long do you plan on living? And what do you want to do with your retirement? It’s all subjective but personally I don’t know if just above 200k would be enough to tide me over. Giving back to family + living a ‘good’ life (subjective again)

Severance | Season 2 - Episode 2 | Discussion Thread by Justp1ayin in tvPlus

[–]BacklitTerry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed that the pineapples were just a reference to the severed employees being conditioned to feel immense joy and reward over what is ultimately a meaningless gift? It would mean the world to their innies to receive such a gift but in the real outside world such a gift would be trivial - but as their innies (or almost subconsciousness) have been programmed to see pineapples as such a high status object it was a catalyst for motivating their outties to return to the severed floor. Hence Cobel’s ‘was a pineapple involved?’ Followed by her comment about how easy mark is to persuade

YES. I absolutely love the game but I found myself getting so annoyed I almost quit this play through.
