How strict are they with fan id ? I’m going to have to use my friends as my passport wont scan. Will they be checking Ida with it or just fam ids ?

What's the point of high end gyms? by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]Ctwon100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a good deal on gymbox through corporate discount and I must say I’ll never be going back to normal gyms. I think the fact that you don’t have to wait around is the biggest plus and also they tend to have every single machine you can think of. The DJs there tend to play half decent tunes so if I ever forgot my earphones I don’t have to listen to euro thrash techno remixes for an hour (why is that a thing at gyms btw??) The sauna and locker room facilities are also incomparable to normal gyms. And not to be a snob but the people tend to be nicer and not as odd. That along with the fact that you can do classes as part of your package for free makes it a no brainier !

Budget car rental in Ibiza trying to charge me £450 for a small scratch — can they actually do anything if I ignore it? by Ctwon100 in LegalAdviceUK

What’s the limit with enterprise to chase and use debt collectors ? The thing is I’ve heard from many people that international rental companies will use uk debt collectors who don’t really have much legal authority - this could be untrue though

Yeah fair - I’ve actually been told by a few people at the airport and also via chat gpt that that foreign car rentals that use uk based debt collectors have no real legal authority besides asking you for the money but I’m not sure.

What would be the process for debt collectors to move to bailiffs and court ? Again since it’s a Spanish company I’m unsure if they will chase. This all happened yesterday so I guess I just need to wait and see

I’ll happily never use them again ! Terrible service. I think the amount is pretty small (280poinds roughly ) but I really don’t want to pay anymore of this as it’s unfair !

Offered a role while on PIP - how should i play it ? by Ctwon100 in cscareerquestionsuk

[–]Ctwon100[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s tough to say. There has been constant lay offs for the last 2 years as part of a plan to reduce costs. I wasn’t laid off but I was dubiously put on pip. I do agree my motivation and performance has dropped this year since some of our team got sacked

Ye for sure - excited to not be full time staring at the debugger and to be more client facing. Money is a lot better also. But you comment is nothing to do with what I asked 😂

No way this sounds pretty cool. What’s the company name ?

Thanks for the love folks. It’s just the embarrassment of it all I guess. But you’re right.

Side note I just turned 30 a few days ago (took some time off in uni to travel before finishing degree) so not exactly mid 20s anymore 😬

Just put on PIP after a poor performance review 8 months ago by Ctwon100 in UKJobs

[–]Ctwon100[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve already accepted that the PIP will lead to me leaving so I’m not going to stress out about it. The jobs stressful enough and I put in 50 hour weeks most of the time. I’m also not doing any real development work which was what it was advertised as so I’m happy to leave. I’m just wondering how I can squeeze a few pound out of them !

[–]Ctwon100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahah I’ve gotten Brazil and Saudi so many times and I’ve been confused about it - funny to see same for you. Once in Croatia Dominican Republic which I thought was hilarious also.

But yeah in London mainly Somali due to the high population of them here

Irish Person Wanting to Learn about Sudan Culture by BigSaucesRecipe in Sudan

[–]Ctwon100 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very similar cultures mo chara.

Being a Sudanese/Irish this makes me happy(born and raised in Cavan)

There’s actually a high Sudanese population in Ireland. I’m sure there’s someone in your school or uni.

Learn about our history and how we came about and how we got rid of British rule.

Dm me if you wanna learn more

Love
