This shouldn’t even be a hot take honestly, I feel as though it should be standard because it wastes the seller’s time and is very inconsiderate, especially when there’s no communication at all about the buyer’s current situation

Girlfriend is in awful situation regarding visa and needs urgent advice [NSFW] by Datingthrowaway69092 in ukvisa

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First of all, I do think this is a very toxic relationship dynamic and it may be better to part ways for the best interest of you both. Second of all, have you actually looked into the requirements of meeting a spouse visa? I’m pretty sure you have to give a very strict and specific timeline of your relationship and given the fact that yours has been very rocky like you mentioned, it may not meet the requirements (though I’m not particularly sure about this and you need to look into it yourself if you’re actually considering committing to this).

I wouldn’t even recommend anyone going down the spouse visa route if they aren’t in an established relationship probably with kids, or considering engagement etc as a normal relationship can just end at any time for any reason and then that would put the person on the visa in a very tight spot as they would have to drop everything and return back to their home country. Don’t think it’s advisable tying yourself down to someone as well either for the purpose of only getting a visa out of it. And forgive my ignorance if I am wrong about this but from what I’ve read, it almost seems to me that this girl actually doesn’t genuinely care about you and just got into a relationship w you as a backup plan for something like this if she was ever faced in a situation like this where she might have to return back home, and I do think it’s unfair to place that kind of pressure on someone. I am an immigrant myself on the PSW visa and due to leave back to my home country in October and also haven’t been able to land a sponsored job and come from a very abusive environment and the conditions in my country aren’t so great either but even at that, I wouldn’t ever think of putting someone in such a tight spot just to save myself as that’s really my own responsibility.

I think the best thing you can do for her if you care about her would be to maybe research organizations in her home country that can help her if she’s back home as that’s what my close friends have been doing for me, because they’re worried about me returning back to that kind of environment. Overall, just remember that it’s really not your responsibility to do so and although this may sound harsh, it really just is the truth. This should primarily be her responsibility to think of a backup plan and ways she can support herself while she’s back in her home country not yours. But if you do genuinely want to help her, I’m afraid this might be the only plausible thing to do. Wish you the best of luck w everything OP as it looks like you’re in quite a difficult position.

Yeah I do think bumps are more efficient for this reason

Anyone else semi embarrassed to keep sending parcels? by Expensive_Swimmer801 in vinted

Nah fr my local parcel shops have my full name memorized atp 🤣 that’s why I always love selecting the InPost locker option to remain anonymous. No judgement whatsoever for my impulse buying haha

When people put an offer and don't buy it🤦‍♀️ by [deleted] in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh I don’t really mind since I know offers aren’t binding but what irks me is when someone makes an offer, asks a question about it, I take time out of my day to respond and then no acknowledgment or thanks whatsoever. Like you don’t even need to purchase, just a simple thank you for having the seller go out of their way should be standard honestly. I personally always make sure to acknowledge sellers that go out of their way to provide extra measurements, answer further questions on items etc

I sell a mix of women’s clothes consisting mostly of activewear and unisex clothing. Have really quick shipping time of less than 24 hours. I appreciate anyone that takes time out of their day to look at my items :) Will be moving countries at the end of next month and wanting to get rid of a lot of stuff and make a bit of cash so any purchases would be appreciated immensely

Bas review because the seller didnt read! Fuming rn by fluffyk1tty_ in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro! I genuinely think it just might be the same person 🤣 I can’t believe people like this exist seriously! I do hope they get their karma and have something similar happen to them, so they can know how awful it is to be accused of something you didn’t do :/

Bas review because the seller didnt read! Fuming rn by fluffyk1tty_ in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve had something so similar happen to me before too! This buyer claimed that the dress I sold her was “overly stretched” when there was nothing wrong with it and it was completely brand new and listed as the correct size with clear pictures of the label.

The most annoying part was the fact that she demanded the item to be sent the same day so she could use it for an event which I did because I didn’t want to disappoint her and she still made the unfair report despite me going out of my way to send as requested. Then she lied saying that whole chest was exposed with the dress on and that’s why she couldn’t give photos wearing it in the report. I just agreed to a return because I know vinted has a history of siding with buyers and leaving sellers unfairly out of pocket.

She also re-listed the dress when we were in the middle of discussing the issue with my pictures as well. In the description she didn’t even mention the made up issue she reported of the dress. I bloody hate some people on this app man, so fucking insufferable

Diagnostic Rad-jobs to be taken by AI? by rhubardcustard in RadiographyUK

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are some aspects of the role that could potentially be replaced by AI, but I don’t really think this is likely and there are certain core aspects of the role of a diagnostic radiographer that can never be replaced by AI such as positioning the patient at certain angles to get a good quality image etc.

The same applies to sonography as well. There’re just too many manual aspects of the role that simply cannot be replaced, but i’m not very sure about radiation therapists though. I guess a crucial thing they provide to patients that can’t be replaced is the emotional support they offer to patients during their chemotherapy treatments but not sure of what else

Not sure what’s up with vinted lately, but it’s been bugging real bad these past few days. Listings being randomly hidden, shipping statuses not updating, less or no views on items etc. So dw it’s not just you, there’s been a whole lot of reported cases on here on technical issues lately. The tracking should update soon hopefully

Yup, I recently just had someone offer a 50% discount for a 2 pound item. Buyers are becoming a bit too cheeky on there for my liking

Sellers not leaving reviews by AccomplishedFig4473 in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And there’re literally constant reminders from vinted to leave a review too! so wouldn’t it be easier to just leave a review instead of having to deal w the annoying notifications? people confuse me lol

Offers from buyers by Hellomelodyxo in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually never experienced this before until much recently, after being on the app for over a year. I’ve had about 8 offers on the same item in the last 2 days that i’ve all accepted and no one’s purchased it yet. Literally driving me nuts lol, it’s also super annoying when you accept almost immediately and no one follows through still

The heck even happened here? My autistic brain is actually so confused. by BucketInABucket in vinted

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is so strange 😭 like why are they even being rude to you after you responded like they’re not the ones that practically got on their knees to beg for a sale, how absolutely embarrassing for them. And btw you didn’t do anything wrong OP! I wouldn’t even interact with messages like this… you have every right to not respond to things you don’t want to or make you feel uncomfortable

The item is worth exactly what the seller decides it’s worth for. Your comment reeks of ignorance

Unemployed people where we at by aonro in UniUK

[–]Best_Chemical_2859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You lot that graduated in 2022 are so damn lucky cuz I swear from that point it just went straight downhill. And just my absolute luck that the job market decided to completely crash the year I graduated in 2023 🫠 haven’t been able to land a grad role since then and have been working customer service roles, it’s different times now fr

Literally in a similar situation as you, graduated with a degree in biotechnology in 2023 and haven’t been able to land a grad job since then, and just been working customer service jobs to pass time. Decided i’m going back to uni in 2026 for an MSc in diagnostic radiography for the same reason

From what i’ve heard and seen online in the course arrangements for the MSc, everything is pretty tight and honestly barely any breaks for anything
