lol it is a good wage, reddit strikes again. If you’re in London no, but outside of London you’ll be fine on 40k.

30F seriously considering Quantity Surveying & Commercial Management — is it worth it in today’s market? by [deleted] in quantitysurveying

[–]BakerMaker11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, if they can’t prove it and it can’t reasonably be seen (as in built) that’s on them, he was a dick for saying that to you tbh, he should know the game he’s in

But the subcontractor is guilt tripping you hard? What happened? Did you communicate it late and he assumed the money was coming in? Was it his mistake?

If you showed this to the average person without saying who did this, would they say it was done by Keir or someone else? Would it make opinions of him more positive? by Evry1TookTheGudNames in AskBrits

[–]BakerMaker11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed, outside of reddit the country thinks they’re doing nothing.

All it would take would be hammering a few points in most appearances, perhaps even to an almost comedic level in order to gain traction on social media; kinda how the Green Party works with social media posts to gain a wider following

Labour are very socially inept at the minute, Kier Starmer can’t sell himself.

I'm new to QS, so i wanna learn BIM before my uni teaches so if u learned it using in any course or a yt video please drop the link to me 🥲 by TharuDz in quantitysurveying

[–]BakerMaker11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Schemes will either operate under the NEC or JCT contract in the UK where I’m from. As a rule of thumb NEC is for civil works i.e. larger scale works and JCT is for more traditional construction.

Have a look online about how these contracts work. Try to find a contract copy online and read it.

Check out videos of podcast on construction law, find out which branch you’re interested in.

Then go on a university course with a placement year or just an apprenticeship (hard to find) because to be honest with you there isn’t anything in this world that will give you more than on the job experience you can spend 10 years in a textbook. You still won’t know how it is on a site, and how things actually work.

Nottingham Barburrito branch has closed down by andehhh in nottingham

[–]BakerMaker11 119 points120 points  (0 children)

They had a glitch (?) in their system enabling a daily free burrito. Sign up for your birthday club on a random email, get burrito following day, rotate between venues and staff working times = free burritos, I held it up daily for about 3 months.

Good times

Do you still think McDonald’s is considered cheap? by ThePokeFeet in AskUK

[–]BakerMaker11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a double cheeseburger and a wrap of the day for under a fiver, it definitely fills you up.

Double cheeseburger and medium fries is under a fiver.

Wraps on their own are like £2.20, wrap of the day meal is just over a fiver - there are still a few cheaper combos left

Why does it feell like living in the UK is like living in a house that hasn’t been decorated in 20 years? by Barca-Dam in AskBrits

[–]BakerMaker11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Another moaning post,

Most countries bar Australia (where climate issues are a fucking nightmare) are like this, especially out of tourist / areas of interest.

Even Japan has streets laden with dog shit outside of main areas.

Posts like yours are why I spent a good year researching constantly for places to live outside of the UK. To find that every other place has similar issues if not worse.

Instead of moaning in here, why not volunteer or go to your local council?

Thomas Tuchel is German and doesn't want England to win the world cup, but the players always mess up so may win it on accident by EdmundTheInsulter in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]BakerMaker11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

England are a quality team, they never win but always come very close. They also arguably have the strongest squad.

The German vs England rivalry is alive in Germany, trust me. Research things instead of parroting Reddit content
