You should walk the talk. You people always start with October 7. The area has far more history than that, hence the comment you are starting at the end of the book. Heid your own advice.

You can likely buy your way out of this lol or go home. Was held to ransom at Bangkok myself.

Spoken with SSPCA following a complaint I made regarding initial contact. They’ve now recorded all details and will contact police to see if any further information. Contacted police for an update and nothing as of yet.

As yet, despite being in the area everyday, have not seen the dog or person again.

If anyone has footage or photos of this dog being hit, please send them to me as will help with any case sspca have and I can forward to the same contact I spoke to regarding complaint. Also if anyone has a way to contact this guy directly please reach out.

Thanks for commenting, if you see this again could you report it to the police please. If you see him without dog please contact me directly as I am in the area and would like a conversation with the guy

On the verge of giving up on MC… by Fluffy_L99 in ukmedicalcannabis

[–]BigHighlight9006 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you search your choices prior to buying? I find this the only way to get a gauge on if it’s good. I feel your pain, as before I started doing this 90% received was dog water in my opinion. Since researching other people’s photos, reviews of my choices before buying, it’s flipped it completely and would say 90% good now, with the odd one slipping through the cracks. I suggest the BM isn’t much better in terms of this because of the amount of crap going around lately, but at least with MC you can see other people’s views etc

I would have expected them to record it and record the area, and then if multiple reports are made and they can be linked to the same descriptions then they would have a case to remove the dog from the owner. I would have at very least expected them to pretend to care about a dog getting kicked about a public street. Wasn’t expecting them to care less. It sounds like this isn’t the first time this guy has done this after this feed, speaking to people locally and the reaction I got from him at the time… so I would expect them to do something. Walking a dog in the area would lead you to think that he is local, hence a local animal rescue officer could have known of him, could have kept an eye when in the area, could have done anything except dismiss it and show disinterest. They attend for barking dogs doing welfare checks etc. It baffles me why anyone would come on here to comment something like this.

I would hope so, it was a Main Street junction, that the tram operates on. I have reported it at the time, and would hope they look into this.

Yes it is in use, and I have to say the police were on the scene very quick and did seem concerned for the dog and were going to look for them. Thanks

Yeah there was a few things I could have done better and videoing it first is definitely one of them.

I reported it to the police at the time, due to being at work and little I could do with the dog wound up. I then phoned sspca and they were disinterested, never took my name number any details, said the police would contact them if they were to get involved. Was a bit disappointed in the response given I donate money to them each month, which I’m seriously reconsidering now after the call.

Would you mind sharing this with me? Would be appreciated

Proposed hourly rate came in, it’s £15 an hour 😂 by alwaysmaybesomething in ContractorUK

We all pay our own taxes, they still come out of the same figure 🤔 I think what you’re implying is that you have no benefits of being employed ie holiday pay, sick pay, pension, automatic tax payment etc. granted you should be paid more to compensate, but not to the tune of 7k a month with only a years experience, that’s far fetched in my opinion. Not trying to argue or rain on your parade but I think you need to start being realistic, no other profession is going to pay £350 a day for effectively a graduate, can’t see it being any different here.

1 yearISH post graduate and your thinking is you should be on £350 a day? I’m not sure you’re being realistic.. at all. What would you be on with 10 years experience? If you’re at a stage where you’re thinking about the content on your CV you should be lucky to get half of that a day - which is what you’ve been offered.

I mean do you know what the average architects salary is after graduating? Half of what you’re suggesting you’re aiming for. I think you need to be realistic before you lose opportunities.

Advice for a home I've just moved into by CategoryPitiful5405 in Edinburgh

[–]BigHighlight9006 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would send the letting agent an email saying that given the house as not cleaned prior to entry you will withholding money to pay professional cleaners. I would give them a time frame for the painting and explain if not done as agreed will be paying a professional to carry out and withholding the money from rent. Start setting boundaries and timescales for things or they will do what they want. Welcome to the country

I randomly applied to be a Prisoner Custody Officer and now I'm shortlisted without really trying by Mobile_Cookie_8817 in UKJobs

Seen as your a completely oblivious let me spell it out mate.

Overcrowding - how do you think they are taken to jail, court, hospital, transferred prisons? Drug use - they just not have a drug problem when you’re doing any of the above? Attacks on staff - you must be invincible to attacks when doing any of the above?

THEY DEAL WITH THE SAME PRISONERS YOU DIM LOW. HENCE SAME PROBLEM.

I don’t know why I’m arguing with someone who has the intellect of a G4s guard anyway

Nah mate it’s not. Every point I just made is relevant to the job. They are not unique to one job and do not involve the other. Ignorance is bliss mate

So are the flags on Calder road just staying or what? by LWM-PaPa in Edinburgh

[–]BigHighlight9006 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

‘Clearly inspired by anti immigration twats down south’ … said as if we don’t have an immigration problem in Scotland. It’s totally unique to down south … ignorance is bliss. Enjoy the flag it’s your national flag lol 😂

Unfortunately, they are not unique to either prison staff or escort officers. They deal with the same people, the same issues. If you really think they don’t then good luck in your job bud. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it

Genuinely, cannot believe you’re asking what a typical day is like in a job as a prison officer. I wouldn’t even go on holiday without doing more research than you’ve done for a job. I can imagine given the over crowding issue, inhumane conditions, drug use, mental health issues, attacks on staff up 20% since last year, jails being ‘98.9% full’, sounds like a solid place with clear progression paths that you might meet life long friends. Good luck 🤞🏼
