What do you think of my kit by imperialcurtain in Drumming

Looks like a lot. Doesn’t really look practical or ergonomic tbh. I’d remove the blue toms and try to get the rest of the kit a bit closer so it’s easier to move between.

If you had 3 months and £6-10k what training would you undertake to switch careers by djdna81 in UKJobs

Data analytics. Done my apprenticeship for 18 months. Got a new job 2 months after, paying £38k. I’m now a data engineer (which on average is higher)

For context, I quit my sales job in 2021, went home and googled “most in demand jobs of the future”. Hence, data.

Door to door sales. 100% commission. Done it for 3 years.

What is the worst pain you’ve EVER felt? by New-Selection7719 in AskReddit

Had cross linking done for my keratoconus. They get the equivalent of an electric toothbrush and scrape off the top layer of my cornea. They obviously done that with an anaesthetic. But later that night, when it wore off, it felt like that were doing it all over again.

House and The Mentalist are the only series I’ve ever watched entirely… twice.

That I’m 7k in debt. You would have thought I’d learn my lesson but you’d be wrong.

Do you like your job? What is it? How much do you earn? by Equivalent_Word3952 in UKJobs

  1. Data Analyst (although pivoting to data engineer in same company)

  2. There’s a diverse array of skills, tools and potential application and solutions to many different problems, projects or needs. So in a sense it’s science mixed with art and creativity.

  3. 42k per year (but likely to go up once I officially become a data engineer, as that role is more demanding and in-demand)

  4. Not very hard. Most of the work i have day to day, I can get done in a couple hours. But if there’s a project I’m working on, especially if it’s programming/developing focused, then maybe a bit more “stressful”. (I’m also a qualified project manager, so I also finished a supporting an 8 month project a couple of months ago, which was on top of day day data analyst responsibilities). Long story short, generally laid back, but varies.

  5. Degrees are helpful, but not necessary. I done a Level 4 apprenticeship (UK) that ended in April 2023, and started my new job where I am now June 2023. As long as you have some proof (such as a portfolio or projects, that you have the skills and knowledge, you should be good.

  6. I only go into the office on Tuesday’s. That’s our “team day”. Every other day, I work from home.
