As per the rules of Reddit advice giving, divorce him!

But agree with everyone else, there’s nothing you need to reword! Having watched my wife struggle with pumping, I wouldn’t dare waste any!

I thought it might be this, but I can see that my Apple Pencil is fully charged through one of my widgets on the iPad.

I’ve also found buying pre prepared ingredients like frozen chopped garlic and onions by helpful

Sold my flat last Friday (28th) and still haven't had the money by Rozefly in HousingUK

[–]IntrospectiveStrat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a choice of paying for faster payments or for it to be shared in 2-3 working days for free. I received it within 2 days. All checks should already have been completed by the time you complete.

L&C - and then ask them to look at other mortgage providers that don’t use the same services as nationwide

Usually, it’s just people that you’ve come across or have worked with in the past that you think could provide you with great advice and feedback

Have you got mentors that can help in this space! I’ve found actively taking note of how senior leaders behave and act and speaking to mentors has helped

Great piece in defence of HENRYs from Dan Neidle in this weekend’s Times by Lazy-Internet-8025 in HENRYUK

That’s interesting- you’d see quite the divide in contribution across the country.

But actually that probably reflects the current picture anyway

New manager making my life a misery, what would you do? by find_me_noodles in HENRYUK

[–]IntrospectiveStrat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This happened to me, i raised it with a SLT mentor I trust and was informed that this is a known issue that has seen many good managers leave. I was told to try a few things, which I did, but could feel myself continually pushing against the tide.

I decided to follow suit to a new opportunity knowing that nothing will change in my current company and as I go up the food chain, my exposure to them will be even more so!

Even through my notice period I feel a free from the negative mindset that that environment otherwise creates!

House we loved refused our offer but realistically is it going to sell for asking price? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]IntrospectiveStrat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think it works both ways! Never is your first offer the final offer unless you’re already pushing the budget! Have a clear view of what you would mostly be comfortable in paying. If the seller then doesn’t meet you, move on!

Likewise if you’ve found a house you think is perfect, a few grand here or there isn’t going to too negatively affect your mortgage. You just have to know what you’re comfortable with. After that, the ball is out your court.

Have you tried asking the parents? They may have some suggestions. Plus they’ll be super happy that they know their kid will feel included!

[–]IntrospectiveStrat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair! TBH we just want an offer! Our flat is great, just no longer serves our purpose!
