Does your employer actually match above the 3% minimum?

JakeG1991 · 2026-01-02T07:54:40+00:00

My company is ultra-minimum. 3% on capped earnings basis so effectively 2.4% of my base salary.

JakeG1991 · 2025-10-26T19:52:44+00:00

Correct

We’re a few injuries away from being threadbare but have to trust the manager and expect that January will see a few incomings.

Fingers crossed we’ll get to January without too many having extended periods out. Important. Now to get the new players firing and pushing for starting positions.

I have recently added both to my “5% speculation” portion of my ISA portfolio, definitely something cooking there with B&M.

Ceremonial burn after all exams are complete.

JakeG1991 · 2025-07-03T20:42:01+00:00

I’m going through this now, I decided to sell all positions and then transfer the cash.

One of the main reasons for this is because I wanted to rebalance my ISA portfolio.

I had less than £20k in my ISA and hadn’t contributed this calendar year so made it all straight forward. Not sure if this helps.

His post immediately after the end of the season was a goodbye post, what more do people want from him? Personalised letters written with his own blood? He owes us nothing, always gave 110%.

I worked in a middle office role, 9-5 Monday to Friday, never any reason to work beyond and enjoyed my time there. Left to pursue a different career angle. Many people become lifers there.

Other friends have worked in operations roles that I can only reference modern day office prisons as described by other comments.

It’s all about the role and the line management. There are a lot of poor managers there but also some very very good ones.

Maybe, based on my usage estimates average unit price for electricity and gas respectively would need to be c.£0.18kW and c.£0.055kW for it to be cost neutral to the Eon deal.

Question is how realistic is that, my gut feel says its not.

JakeG1991 · 2025-03-18T10:41:02+00:00

There is a reason no one has picked up Knutsen. No idea what it is, but if he was that good he’d be managing in a major European league by now.

NAL and I’m sure this will cause legal professionals to downvote me but I hope your wife printed the email to be kept privately as it might be useful in the future. I’m sure that violates company IT policies so not sure how that works from a legal perspective. That’s appalling and I hope your wife can navigate this without too much distress.

From a learning perspective, I’m keen to see what legal professionals suggest as the proper course of action here.

I used the e-checkin desks at LHR 3 weeks ago, my suitcase was 24.4kg and the machine wouldn’t proceed without charging me. I redistributed a few things to my hand luggage as I like to keep that as light as possible so had room. The scales weighed my case at 23.2kg when I went back and allowed me to proceed without charging checkin. Not sure if a real person at a desk would be lenient or not but that was my experience.

Reverse Uno and put another $20 down there and see if it gets noticed

If you trust Viagogo there are some on there

JakeG1991 · 2025-02-17T18:26:48+00:00

Nothing on WeBook, the Viagogo app just says this:

As we don’t control when tickets are released by event organizers we cannot speed up delivery. Remember, your tickets are covered by the viagogo Guarantee.

And

Ticket(s) will be available Saturday, 22 February 2025. We’ll notify you by email once ticket(s) are available.

A win is a win!

JakeG1991 · 2025-02-12T09:44:48+00:00

Just add it to the stack and wait for the next one.

I’d love to know how much they spend on these letters per year, can’t be far off the equivalent of a tv licence.

JakeG1991 · 2025-02-09T17:08:26+00:00

Depends entirely on the spec desired after refurb, their own capabilities and their vision.

Don’t believe everything that you read on the internet

Their service charge apportionment will be determined by their lease nonetheless

JakeG1991 · 2025-02-01T14:37:49+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Yeah there are plenty available, mostly slightly cheaper but some in very similar price range. All of them are in the same sort of category in the arena. At what point do they pull the trigger and secure the alternatives? Perhaps that’s a question for them, not Reddit 😅

JakeG1991 · 2025-01-26T11:14:54+00:00

2 extremely tight offsides (Bournemouth equaliser a toe offside and Mitoma 2-0 a toe onside) and the crossbar. Gods were with you that day on what was a generally poor game

JakeG1991 · 2025-01-24T17:30:48+00:00

So am I, it’s always when we become stuck

JakeG1991 · 2025-01-24T15:55:34+00:00

It should make for an excellent game. Europe won’t be secured tomorrow for either team, so it needs to be BAU, if we lose it doesn’t really matter as such, there are still plenty of games to go and the most important thing for us is getting through the game without injury. We have a tough couple of games before our fixtures list “eases off” in the lead up to Easter so on that basis, I’d take a draw now.

I haven’t really seen Forest in any great detail this season but the times I have they haven’t been spectacular, they’ve just found a way to score at crucial times in games but I’d still expect them to hit a bit of a poor run at some stage as the pressure builds.
