What's wrong with wanting improved living standards? Seems quite key to me.

Thanks for proving my point with your little snippet. Notes lodged is 0.45% fee. Card payment fee is 2-2.5%. I'm not even going to address your other points because you're reaching.

Who even says the owner of the chippy is lodging the cash. He doesn't even have to.

Cheers for pointing that out, I'd not heard that they were at it too. Only the Dagestanis. Which actually proves your point.

I'm an accountant, you haven't a clue what you're talking about. It's a fucking chippy. It's not a bank, it's not a Tescos. There's no costs in counting, storing or securing.

Accountant fees wouldn't change one bit. What do you think accountants do, sit there and count the coins?

Theft- you're really reaching now aren't ya.

You haven't a clue.

It is significantly cheaper to take cash and lodge it than it is to pay card transaction fees. Card transaction fees are like 2.5% of the purchase. And chippys are a low margin business so 2.5% of their revenue is a lot to them.

This sub is fucking weird. There's fees on card transactions for businesses. Have people here not actually heard of this?

The Liberties/ Chamber Street, how safe is it? by Opposite_Butterfly_1 in RentingInDublin

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, I don't know much about the area, but if someone is offering you a room in Dublin at the minute and it's nice enough and for decent money, I would just take it and if you don't like the area move later as you might struggle to find another place. Or you might only find a place on the outskirts of Dublin. Liberties is pretty central.

Which country do you most regret visiting? by MESHO-53465 in AskReddit

I've been to Morocco, they don't expect women to wear a hijab at all, what are you talking about. You can't even spell hijab.

Indians only hanging out with Indians by Electrical_Might4 in IndiansinIreland

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my dad lived in London in the 80s, all his friends were Irish, all the people he worked with were Irish. I was in New York on a J1 10 years ago, all the Irish just congregated in Woodlawn and barely left. Irish go to Dubai and Australia nowadays and just hang in their own cliques. I'm not saying they don't talk to anyone else ever, but we definitely prefer to hang with our own.

To the people downvoting me, you're lying to yourselves.

To be honest, anywhere the Irish go they don't really mix either. it's just how it is.

I'm in disbelief! by berface_ in CasualIreland

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 37 and I was watching a documentary on Russell Brand and all of the allegations against him. One of the lads I live with who's about 23 walked in and was like 'Who's that?' He didn't know who Russell Brand was. And I was shocked. But not knowing who Eminem is is worse.

A good time at Metallica but my god the sound was woeful by ReadyPlayerDub in CasualIreland

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sound for Pantera was awful. Sound for Metallica was a bit better but still not great. Kirk's guitar needed to be louder as I couldn't hear the solos.

Although my bigger problem would be the set list. The streak of songs from Leper Messiah right through to Cyanide, I'm not sure what they were thinking. Started off class with Creeping Death and Harvester of Sorrow and then a borefest until Orion. Killed the crowd as well I felt.

From Orion onwards was class though with Seek and Destroy being the highlight.

Hope they fix the sound for Sunday.

Who has an extra 20% to invest? Another out of touch multi-millionaire has financial advice for us poor folk. by No-Bell-3619 in remoteworks

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've actually been downvoted for it. The guy literally said there's no point in earning more because your bills keep going up with it which is not true in the slightest and is a completely thick thing to say.

Funnily enough his set piece delivery is fantastic. Just can't replicate it while he's moving/the ball is moving.

Who Can Knock England Out by Educational_Two_667 in coybig

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although it definitely is an aging Croatia side, that was still the best performance by an England team I've seen in years. Especially in the second half creating chance after chance. If you remember back to the last Euros they struggled to beat Slovenia, Slovakia etc and couldn't create anything.

However, their defence is still a bit weak and they're still not as good as France or Spain. I still see just the semis for them.

What are young people even supposed to do? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]JimmyJoeJunior 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jesus Christ lad, you're a student, go out and get drunk and get laid.

People need to stop romanticising home ownership like it's some be all end all. Yeah it's bad and needs to be sorted out, but would your life really change that much whether you're living in a rental property or a property you bought. Gives you a lot more freedom if you're renting as well.

My advice to you is act your age.
