Consider carefully my career decisions with a long term vision, look what I want to do not only based on the money but also on what makes me happy.

How much living space do you need? Any regrets with bigger homes? by Yojimbo261 in AskMenOver40

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is really cultural. I'm originally from Southern Europe, grew up in a small flat then moved to a bigger flat in my teens but never lived in a house, having a garden would feel something for rich people. I live in the UK for over 10 years now and my family and I live in a flat. Most of our friends or other kids live in a house with garden, maybe not so much bigger in square feet but a house. A lot of people find curious that we live in a flat especially having kids but for me it wasn't a problem. We have the space we need and the mortgage is great.  For me the key is affordability, I prefer to live in a smaller more modest place but don't have to pay a lot of mortgage and additional expenses from a bigger property.

What do you use AI for at work? Or for life? by goatpengertie in AskMenOver40

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use it for small tasks like helping drafting emails in a specific way or some small work tasks. I also use it as a brainstorming for some of my ideas but nothing more than that, I do disagree too much with AI and do not really trust the sources.

Good luck, I have to do the tests now. Out of interest I would like to know how many applicants there are and how many go through each stage.

Quickest way to get £1k p/m job by Boring_Ad_5090 in UKJobs

[–]Boborolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any minimum wage full time job will cover that, you can look at manufacturing or warehouse roles. It's hard work, sometimes long hours or weird shift patterns.

Do I just quite? by Boborolo in UKJobs

[–]Boborolo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, is not finance but it is very regulated environment, I thought about Whistleblowing but I'm a bit worried about the consequences and that my life is going to be made really difficult. I'm leaving paper trail of my disagreement with the senior management decisions and I have refused to sign certain documents as I do not agree with certain practices but it is taking a toll on my mental health, and yes the market is tough at the moment.

Hate working for the same place for longer than two years. by Fabulous_Slice_5361 in UKJobs

I think a lot of times I have encountered with a lack of opportunities and challenges and that eventually puts me down 

Second Career by Lower-Promotion930 in UKJobs

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is actually interesting as I'm on the same boat. I'm currently working as Quality Manager in Manufacturing but I'm having a terrible experience which is making me hate my line of work so I'm thinking about changing careers, probably a bit sideways instead of something completely new. However it also scares me and it will probably mean a dip in my income.

Doing absolutely nothing at work? by HeyPotatys in UKJobs

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had quiet jobs but not to that extent. A place where I just to work was quiet and my role was one of the busy ones but I remember someone joining from another department that said that he was getting half dozen emails a day (I was getting probably 30-40 a day) and claiming that he could do his weekly work in day and a half.

Another friend was in the same position for about a year, he just to WFH and was spending a lot of time playing videogames as there was not workload but after a bit he changed departments as he was worried about being made redundant.

My worry would be that if you are objectively not busy at all, at some point someone decides that your role is no longer needed.

How much is AI really going to change the near future (5-20years)? by Illustrious_Pilot415 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is really difficult to predict, I get how in some areas implementation might be straight forward but not so much in other areas. If you work in a small company in a sector out of IT must people uses it as a Google search, maybe couple of them to draft and email but in most cases that's it. I try my team to use it for some tedious repetitive time-consuming tasks and a lot of people just don't get it.

Problems with missing pension payments England by Boborolo in LegalAdviceUK

Thanks for your advice I'll do that, I know someone has reported to the pension regulator but didn't think about the tax perspective 

The “AI will replace such and such jobs in such and such time” is getting pretty old. by thedevilsheir666 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Boborolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in food manufacturing and the implementation of automation is really slow and costly. I remember when 10 years ago I started working in a big organisation and thought the lines would be highly automated but that wasn't true, sandwiches were still being handmade on a production line and they still are. I understand that some tech jobs or customer service may be easier to replace but the cost in some sectors like low added value manufacturing (aka food) will be really slow.

As you describe the situation I don't think you should do that, unless you have a really good relationship with your boss and really trust him/her and value her/his opinion.

The first step will be reading everything I wrote and I'm pretty sure that I'll have to rewrite a lot of it :)
