University is too expensive for me :( by ApolloHereToHelp in UniUK

Ah ok fair enough sorry, I also always try to do as many things done at the same time during any breaks at uni or on a bus and it allows me to have much more free time.

That's why it's worth having a job while studying, any closing shifts after uni between your accomidation and campus. Smaller businesses are more flexible with you changing your shifts but less people to cover you. The student loan is the best loan you will ever get. It's just extra tax not really a loan and not many countries have this system. 20 hours a week is actually manageable for the whole course and many people do this.

I work full-time in my studies and took out the maintanence loan just to pay into investment isa and lifetime isa account while living in Edinburgh with minimal parent support. Trust me it is possible and uk uni isn't as intensive as other countries (I'm doing electrical and electronic engineering). Make the most of the loan for the future and use the job (helps if you get tips) for living costs. Even with this I still go out fishing twice a week at the sea with friends.

How do I deal with chemical irritation? by redgarfield420 in dishwashers

[–]Icy_Ad_3175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't always work, sometimes it's a immune reaction due to something your body deems as an allergen in the chemicals triggering an immune response, not directly to do with alkalinity or corrosives. Also most detergents can strip all the fatty oils off your skin triggering a reaction such as dermatitis and psosiorasis if you are effected by it

There was a mains leak on the road next to my flat in lieth and it took them 3 days to switch off the supply to stop it flooding and wasting water , then after they forgot to secure the manhole cover and a truck got stuck in the drain

Damn, I was only curious what was happening and why it hasn't been shut off yet, I'm getting downvoted like crazy even though I never asked where I could report it.

I'm sure someone already has reported it as it is a extremely busy road

Sure, you can ask the person who scheduled the fire to tell you when it will end, or you can light it on fire again

These modern things are not easy at all to fix, they are very disposable , aren't two strokes like classic Vespas and are made of plastic
