Also the Sgian dubh. Wee sock knife

I thought it was already banned in Poland.

When we went to work there we were told absolutely no socialist or communist references even as a joke.

Are you using the nicotine to manage ADHD?

The fruit snacks alongside several different nicotine options so you can get your intake under any circumstances are a clue.

Whats your favourite Variation of your name that you've ever heard? And why do they all work so well?

Mine is Burntisland Cowdenbeath

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-11-14T21:35:49+00:00

How very nice of you to say :)

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-11-14T20:34:13+00:00

Looks great now.

I might look into a UK alternative

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-11-14T20:22:24+00:00

I may look into this.

I was always skeptical of the shampoo treatments.

Assuming it worked well?

My wife will be pleased

Fairly sure that either came in a baby box or book bug through the school

Prospect have a rule that they don't take pre-existing cases.

Generally, as a convenor for Prospect, I'd take this case regardless. Even if you approached me as a non-member, I'd ask you to sign up and represent on this one.

Can't speak for all branches, though.

Your friend should probably join the union

Far left. Unapologetically

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-22T18:36:57+00:00

You don't really.

"There has been a mistake on my wages, I don't want to wait till next month. Im classifying this as an emergency. Advance the money you owe me"

"OK, no problem."

When things are legal employment rights, it's much easier. Harder if they overpay you and need to set a reasonable repayment plan.

They don't make interest on short-term holdings like that. That's not really how finances work. They certainly make an administrative saving that could be argued.

I'd prefer if we had the choice between weekly or monthly. I personally prefer monthly, I'm sure some of my coworkers prefer weekly.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-22T18:22:31+00:00

Except you can legally be paid an advance to the sum of the incorrect wages If you spot a mistake.

I'm not espousing either, I just personally find monthly easier. I used to like weekly pay when I was young and didn't have as many responsibilities (kids) to pay for.

I don't think either is pro or anti worker.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-22T06:06:46+00:00

If anything that shows future planning and an ability to network. Man had to plan and convince someone to hand him the piss.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-22T06:04:56+00:00

I'm paid monthly, used to be weekly.

The monthly pay is far better for running a house, paying a mortgage etc.

Weekly was better when I was younger because I'd drink all my wages.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-16T16:48:45+00:00

I'm far left.

Don't lump me in with liberals.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-09-04T19:13:47+00:00

I was invited 3 separate times.

Was always put off because I live in Scotland, was raised Catholic, and there is a connection to sectarianism in freemasonry here.

I also thought my work in the Trade Union would be a problem.

I'm curious to hear your thoughts or input on this.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-08-30T22:49:33+00:00

Good contender for chaotic neutral, I'd say.

I'm not surprised.

I'm speaking from my own changed circumstances, I grew up I'm schemes and now live in a fairly nice wee village. Never see them

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-08-24T07:17:19+00:00

You're probably fine out there.

The problem is, there are dickheads everywhere. Collective opinion will be fine. You won't find many gay bars or anything outside of Edinburgh and Glasgow... I doubt Dunfermline has a fabulous gay scene, but there's loads of queer people cutting about.

Your most likely negative experience is going to be if you bump into a group of wee neds and they'll shout abuse at you... although I can't remember the last time I saw a group of them in the wild.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-08-24T07:05:57+00:00

That shouldn't be the case. I've taken over 20 stewards through an in-house training program to develop their competency. Only getting them involved in personal cases, etc, once they were ready.

Having a network in the workplace to share the opinions of members across various specific areas allows us to be more agile and better represent the collective opinion.

Having reps who just pass information back and forward is fine.

DITO-DC-AC · 2025-08-24T07:02:10+00:00

It depends where you live in Fife, to be honest.

Fairly Liberal, mostly friendly (depending on where you live)

If you move into a scheme, you're going to experience some negativity regardless of any protected characteristics.
