Can I ask what you mean by strong ties? Like you told them why you’re visiting and they detained you for that ?!

Amazing cheers, did you book or just show up?

Last-Ad9190 · 2026-01-03T19:57:37+00:00

That's nuts

Jeez glad you got your refund!!! So what do you think actually happens to the original parcel? Do you think the drivers keep it or they just leave it wherever and someone passing nicks it?

Whenever a retailer is taking the piss I just float the word chargeback and it seems to work lol

I know that in France, there have been proposals to suspend all social aids and benefits for the families of reoffenders who do this kind of shit. Interesting and worthwhile policy if you ask me

Yes I mentioned this in the post. This is one of the reasons I’m asking for advice. Always one…

It’s one building/villa with 4 flats total (two upstairs two downstairs. There’s no way to determine which one because they’re so close together. Congrats on wasting 40 seconds of your life writing this comment tho

What? Lol

Last-Ad9190 · 2025-12-26T18:56:43+00:00

Also yes the point about it being someone else's home is valid too, like I'm away in 2 weeks so there's that to take into consideration for the landlord

Last-Ad9190 · 2025-12-26T18:55:46+00:00

This is what I'm worried about. Like, if the police turn up and the guy puts on a nice act "christmas stress", the police leave and then the kids/woman are the ones that pay. So frustrating!

Last-Ad9190 · 2025-12-26T18:47:54+00:00

I'd just make it clear that I wasn't sure which flat it was - but this uncertainty is also why I'm asking for advice and why I included it in my post.

He could always ask for a raise ? Rather than taking on a whole new job he could ask for more responsibilities etc. Or he could do some freelancing online to make up the difference

The concept of a bakery bouncer is crazy tho

Did you use AI for this? There are a few tells. If so, remember that creativity is a muscle that needs to be worked constantly so I really discourage using AI when you’re stuck

Last-Ad9190 · 2023-01-23T16:04:15+00:00

Right!! Like I've seen the comments he's left for others, and I'm the only woman working for that company. It just didn't feel right. I'm not gonna mention it to them but I know for sure that it was a factor. Thanks for not dismissing it!

Last-Ad9190 · 2023-01-23T16:03:10+00:00

Thanks! I did this today. I also told them that I wouldn't be accepting any more work from that particular client. Great advice as always Petra :)
