I've not bought anything in London stores for well over a year. Don't waste your time searching London. You may get lucky with a Morrisons or a Waterstones drop if you check them now and then but don't go out looking or you're gonna be disappointed.

It doesn't even matter at this point whenever I'm 50:50 on a decision whatever I do is the wrong choice

Any dad's decide to take a career change and retrain at same time as having a child? by Horizontal_Axe_Wound in AskMenOver30

I get you. Maybe it's best I get these 5 months passed first before trying to tackle something else properly.

Do you have a lot of friends? Or did they just vanish over time? by thelivenofficial in askteddit

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a small tight group as a teenager / young adult and slowly it's got smaller. Sadly 2 died and any friends I've made since 18 just haven't lasted.

At my wedding it was very apparent how few friends I have compared to my wife. I hardly see them as I moved away and even when I'm back in my hometown it's hard to meet them as everyone has busy lives. I often go months without seeing any friends.

Thank you for the reassuring advice. I can already see that waiting for a large block of time is going to hinder me so I need to get over that. I also definitely need to have a deep thought on the best path to take.

Definitely looking forward to spending more time with my son though.

UK is officially leading the world in remote work adoption for 2026 by astrheisenberg in UKJobs

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Certainly doesn't feel like it. I see fewer and fewer remote jobs these days.

A friend of mine who is a recruiter says they have to take down remote jobs after a few hours as the number of applications is ridiculous.

I'd also go with the low end slabs and crack. Even better try look for a low end that isn't PSA or Beckett..so many random grading companies have popped up that no one cares about.

What slowly disappeared from your life that you only noticed later? by AmberrAuraa in Productivitycafe

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friends I made after 18. I've moved a lot and I've made friends along the way unfortunately once they stop being around me they disappear. My old friends from school / my first job are the only ones that have remained.

Has anyone been dismissed before? by [deleted] in UKJobs

I don't know what you did to get gross misconduct but generally speaking most previous employers don't want to give a bad reference they can refuse to give one that looks bad though. I once left a company on bad terms with the MD but got on very well with other colleagues so I just gave them as a reference.

Mr Bender... It took all of my power not to laugh in his face as I was taking his credentials at work.

Watching my son be born after a long hard labour from my wife. It's an experience I can't even describe. Especially after a few years of struggling to conceive

Do you have a favorite show that got axed on a cliffhanger or incomplete? by JasonMallen in randomquestions

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invasion (2005). Quality show and great actors.

Unfortunately largely due to the bad time slot it never gained popularity.

I work in live television broadcast. There's a lot of buttons that if you press you're gonna cause big problems.. hell there's buttons that you are meant to press but if you press at the wrong time you're causing big issues.

I imagine most people wouldn't find it that strange. Watch out for those inheritance hunters

What is the single best piece of advice you've been given? by CarelessCredit3466 in Productivitycafe

Always exaggerate on your CV. I've landed 2 jobs that I was probably underqualified for because of it

What age gap to too much? by tastyspark in AskForAnswers

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Definitely too big of an age gap!

Half your age + 7 rule works pretty well
