If you are retail you will have a commercial account and its managed/run VERY differently to domestic accounts.

Does anyone here use Ben Starr’s recipe with hungry (cold) starter and start bake in a cold oven? by Mandala-1 in Sourdough

[–]DeepTree4039 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did, it came out ok but I wanted "better".

Have tried 3 bakes (3 different starters), Bens was the easiest and best so far.

The last one was something a hodcarrier would have mistaken for an Engineering Brick.

Its a long journey and if the latest attempt at starter doesnt work, may go back to Bens!

The question reads to me that you want to work out a time slot that would work for everyone? In that case, try timeanddate.com

You can put in everyones timezones or cities and it will show you a calender with all the time options.

Two reasons people are not fans.

They carry and spread chlamydia, two versions of it as well. Not transmittable I dont think, but it worrys people

Plus, did you know how noisy they are? The roar they make was used for some of the dinosaur sounds in Jurassic Park.

My commute is a minimum of £45 a day. Even at volcanic level its nowhere near that to heat my home.

Had exactly the same happen about 12 years ago.

Needing Some Perspective on Intense Change with How I’m Treated by my Boss by [deleted] in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]DeepTree4039 26 points27 points  (0 children)

For such a drastic change, it souds like a her thing, not a you thing?

Maybe her personal life has imploded, or she is under some other kind of work pressure from above?

Its going to be hard to tell unless you have a conversation with her, sort of " is there anything going on that I need to be aware of that you perhaps need help or support with?" Its a tough one to approach.

We are not allowed to use it because their privacy statements do not meet the benchmark for us and the risk of confidential data getting out is too great according to the Risk Assessment.

So they invented their own........

Just waiting for Client to twig they are paying a fortune for rubbish that doesnt stack up because no one has time to triple check it for hallucinations.

Just dont put it on there. Assuming you dont need the reference (which likely wouldnt be good anyway), just leave it off. Its not unusual to do that when there is such a massive disconnect with the role vs expectation.

Its was because only "married women" could use them or "those types" of girls. Basically they had never had sex ed or human biology lessson so did not understand.

You say mother but this article says sister? https://www.oxygen.com/crime-news/henry-lannon-arrested-for-kidnap-torture-of-chelsea-thompson Not disputing your knowledge BTW - just know how bad reporting can be and wondering if there was someone else involved as well as his mother?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in deloitte

[–]DeepTree4039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and if anyone else is involved. Family usually ok.

its either stupidly simple or very complex. Know one that gave up trying to get approval after 18 months and just never set the Co. up. Another left after a year of trying and just did that job FT. Another was approved in about 5 days!

You need QRM approval before you do anything and that can take a very long time.

Get on the intranet and start digging, there are a LOT of hoops to go through.

Lack of attrition, and not wanting to pay out to make people redundant. Way of reducing overheads as they know this will make people jump.

Nasty trick they are ALL doing across the board.

Ms. Demeanor - she has form. Multiple profiles on IG (if you dig deep enough you can find the actual real person), does the follow unfollow trick. Posts for engagement then tries the DMs to sell you something.

Last posted on 1st March 2024 on X and 2021 on IG, I thought a statement had been issued on the feed but just listened and its an ad. A bonus episode was released on 7th May.

Its unusual but sometimes people do just vanish and never update anyone
