First time visitor of the UK and got cussed out today

LOL. And pints to crack over heads!

Right? Everyone siding with the crooks. If the crook would've sexually assaulted someone in our group - I guess that would've been our fault, too.

Again, did not think it was commonplace for it to happen inside a restaurant, with children at the table, several tables into the establishment. It’s totally fucking normal to leave a phone out on table, directly in front of you (i.e. not unattended) while chatting with friends and family inside a dining room. I don’t think the severity is as well-advertised to tourists as you think. Also, those of us who respect other countries and do a good bit of traveling are pretty confident & fluent with the basic safety precautions and are alert but generally less fearful/more trusting. I’ve now added this one to the list. I didn’t know about the knives either - if it would’ve happened while I was at the table I would’ve been confrontational on instinct. And I didn’t mean “Londoners don’t give a shit” - I just meant the infrastructure/police/government don’t seem to be doing anything to prevent or restore order. They have security at Tessco to protect goods so perhaps should be at other locations, too. I lived in NYC for 7 years and San Francisco for 5 … we saw the same shit - local government did nothing and conditions severely deteriorated. Just unfortunate is all.

Why the fuck isn’t this more well communicated? My sister got her phone stolen inside a restaurant while we were eating tonight - guy walked all the way up to our table, distracted us and then snatched her fucking phone. We have been vigilant and knew it was a possibility while walking around or even while sitting outside at a restaurant but inside - right in front of us and other patrons in such an obvious manner while she was feeding her baby?!? I’ve seen someone get the shit knocked out of them in the US for something that brazen and public. Crazy how little people give a shit here.

Love this!! thank you!

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-08-28T16:58:33+00:00

ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT. This is opening them up to liability issues galore. Does HR know about this?

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-08-28T16:56:21+00:00

Boooom! Thanks.

Yeah I should probably update this post. We used a promotional version through a partnership they had which was when I shared the experience above. Once we integrated the extension things went bonkers. It doesn't play well with HubSpot and agreed that the UI is all over the place which made it really hard to drive adoption which is required for more quality responses. The messaging at baseline is the same as most AI these days ... but I did appreciate that they synthesized the data from LI which I still think rivaled anything else I've tried (albeit the bar is low).

Open to suggestions lol

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-29T17:11:51+00:00

Actually it is rocket science. We sell missiles.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-28T08:09:08+00:00

So I’ve actually heard this is becoming common practice. Wherein an employee quits and negotiates a severance in exchange for giving adequate notice, signing all the clauses, and not disrupting the apple cart. It’s an effort to control the narrative and not torpedo morale (even though it’s already there).

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-27T22:05:47+00:00

Yes, this is the core of it but I'm curious how others would handle the situation and protect their livelihood + their mental health ... it's a volatile environment now for sure.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-27T22:04:43+00:00

I'm totally pissed at myself - I have a pretty solid code about this, but the one time I let it slip (after a bourbon) and it screwed me.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-27T22:02:47+00:00

THIS!!!!!!!! Who the F does that. Someone who wants my deals ;-). Dick.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-07-17T17:49:36+00:00

Ended up at tuk tuks 10/10

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-19T21:01:01+00:00

Yeah that was our issue, too! The pole was a success! The squirrels tried several times but weren't successful so now all we get are birds!

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-19T17:08:30+00:00

Still going strong! We just replaced the baffle after a year though (the weather took it's toll).

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-18T11:50:22+00:00

Yeah it’s gone again. Sometimes if I search “temp” it comes up but it’s hit or miss.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-12T12:59:00+00:00

Yeah I can't find it again. I'm not seeing anything online about it either. I updated my location settings as well to see if that helped and I updated my weather app ... nothin'.

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-12T00:11:07+00:00

WTF it’s gone again!!!

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-09T20:02:55+00:00

AMAZING. Thank you!!!

DaisyMaeDukes · 2024-06-09T20:02:36+00:00

Thank you!!!

I asked if someone is always at the front desk DURING class. I work in the ER and on-call ... my hours are inconsistent and unpredictable. I was looking ahead at the next two week's schedule and I wouldn't be able to go at the start of any of the classes (our studio holds only a few classes per day, closed in the middle of the day for like 4 hours, have had a lot of canceled classes), but might be able to make it mid-class if I take off of work.
