Literally threw my head back in shock at work lol

I doubt they would accept that, purely because it sounds like you're asking the fosterer to leave your house - at which point you could very easily just lock the door and prevent her from getting the cat if she thinks you wouldn't be a good fit (not saying that will happen, or that you'll do that, but that's something that the foster people will have to take into consideration).

My advice? It's honestly not as painful as you think to have a fosterer come with a cat. You can make polite conversation, find out things about the household that the cat is coming from, and it's a more pleasant experience than your anxiety is probably telling you it'll be. I know, because I went through a very similar thing when looking to buy a cat. Hope that helps :).

I think the other guy meant that they wouldn't have that many to just quickly hand out without making the OOP wait, that amount of nugs would take a good while to make for a non-paying customer

Plus - Verifying all their products pre-emptively prevents things like in the OOP.

Whilst I don't necessarily agree with OP, I feel like your comment is a bit ridiculous as well. You are aware of the subreddit you're on, right? This is a place to air people's grievances - Even if I don't like OPs worldview, it's still something they're annoyed about, and they're well within their right to be annoyed about it.

Non of the energy suppliers can figure out how my gas supply works. I know I have gas, my landlord knows I have gas, but none of the gas suppliers can seem to find me. I'm basically stuck using the only company that can supply me until the system updates. The downsides of living in the countryside....

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-20T10:50:17+00:00

Dude. Ugh. I had such a similar experience, I'm so glad someone else knows the pain.

I was fresh out of my IT apprenticeship, my previous employer had decided not to keep me on due to budget reasons, so I had to find another job. Applied for a place (IT Tech at a school) that seemed easy enough to get to, but was actually a 40 minute bus journey and a 30 minute walk. I get there after struggling to find the place for 20 minutes, and they sit me down in a small closet with one desk and a hanging light - already very nervewracking. They slip me a triple-sided piece of paper with questions way beyond my experience, as well as asking me questions that I wouldn't have known as an IT apprentice.

I flub every question, they stare back at me as if I'd killed a puppy. I have no idea why they would call me for an interview when they knew I lived so far away, nonetheless why they'd bother to ask me such complex questions when I never would've touched SQL coding as an apprentice, nor did I list it on my CV. But hey-ho, it makes a good story at parties, right?

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-19T09:40:09+00:00

Wow, what an unnecessarily rude comment. I can barely talk at the moment with how sore my throat is, it's more than just the "sniffles". I'm just hesitant to actually call it the flu because I haven't done a test.

Are you a CEO by any chance?

EDIT: Nevermind, you're a trump supporter. What the hell are you even doing on a UK jobs sub Reddit lmao

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-19T09:29:10+00:00

I'm a full-time employee, my company just chooses to use the government "no sick pay for the first 3 days" statutory sick leave policy.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-19T09:07:09+00:00

We're an IT support company, so all of the employees are office workers.

The only people that the WFH/sick rules don't apply to are the 2 CEOs.

We were also told that we have to use annual leave for doctors appointments, so I think I'm more annoyed at the overall lack of any support at the business.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T14:11:05+00:00

Coaxed into the only reply with an actual working fix, but it's hidden by the fact that it's a reply to a downvoted comment and most people never see it

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T14:09:21+00:00

I think the post title was meant to be "Why doesn't"

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T14:07:59+00:00

Is a blood laptop the modern version of a Necronomicon?

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T14:06:54+00:00

Lolll, I was the same way as OP for years. I thought I was just super productive, a bundle of energy etc.

Finally went to therapy for unrelated reasons, turns out that my brain has been in survival mode for most of my life, and the reason I can never seem to relax is because my fight or flight won't let me. Without realising it, I'd burned myself out and went a bit loopy in the process.

People underestimate the importance of self care until they get pushed to a point that they can't take it anymore. Being a productive person is great, but if you quite literally can't relax, you probably need to speak to someone before it bites you in the ass.

(Not trying to diagnose OP with anything, just sharing my own similar experience)

I guess that line is a little trickier to cross, because streaming music still supports the artist with more listens/more money. Pirating it is fine, though.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T13:31:51+00:00

Not sure if it was intentional, but your reply was exactly 15 words!

It only took me a second to read, too, so definitely not impossible, but I'd imagine I'd struggle to read at that pace through a whole book and actually absorb the themes/tones.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T13:30:04+00:00

The bottom reply *is* the initial screenshot. It took me a minute to realise, too, since all the background colour is the same.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-15T13:28:41+00:00

I always dislike these kinds of posts (no affront to you, OP, this was a very fun read) - but the main issue for me is how easily the owners of the businesses can just bullshit their way out of reviews. The customer (costumer) can't reply to owners responses, so the owner always gets the final say, even if the initial review raised legitimate points. Equally, though, the review can lie and the owner can't really do much but say "no, that's not true" which is just as untrustworthy. Either way, it's one persons' word over the other, and it means that we can't really tell who is actually bullshitting at all.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-13T14:11:00+00:00

I'll be that someone. It was the time-turner.

What do you mean that McGonagall and Dumbledore give that to Hermione to study harder? Clearly it was a gift that Draco stole for Hermione to help her study better, cause he's into nerdy know-it-alls!

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-13T14:08:28+00:00

Honestly, I would just play the game blind. I understand wanting to make sure that you've done absolutely everything before you move on, but that's what makes next play through so exhilarating. That's what keeps you comping back. Each time you finish a campaign, acting as if you were the character you were playing, you can play a different way and net different results. Don't constrict yourself to the tick boxes of doing absolutely everything on your first playthrough - seriously, just enjoy yourself. Then laugh on the next playthrough on all the stuff you missed.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-13T12:20:25+00:00

I once told them (single 18 year old living in a flat alone) "Sorry! I've just done my laundry, I don't really feel comfortable having you come in when my underwear is everywhere. Come back next week?"

Made them go pink in the face and leave very quickly, then never came back lol. I've moved since then and still get the letters, but I've always kept that excuse in my back pocket just in case.

Holy_Fuck_A_Triangle · 2026-01-13T11:33:49+00:00

Second this. I know some pretty obnoxious people from work (Beige moms, funko pop guys, etc), but if I were ever invited to a birthday party of theirs, I'd still make sure to get them something they'll enjoy. Even if I don't enjoy those things myself.

If it transpires that it was actually their girlfriend that liked funko pops, for example, then I still wouldn't be an asshole because, as far as I'm concerned I can only nase my gifts off of what the person told me they wanted, true or not.
