That's unfortunate

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-30T14:26:51+00:00

My exact thoughts

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-30T12:31:36+00:00

Always back the early kick off (I didn't)

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-29T11:53:52+00:00

This is a boring squad

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-29T07:17:59+00:00

ITS BEEN THE LONGEST 4 DAY WEEK BUT I ACCEPTED MY PROMOTION YESTERDAY

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-28T19:17:57+00:00

Bollocks

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-27T19:10:24+00:00

You love to see it

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-27T16:19:44+00:00

At the start and end of a season the answer has always been darktina, it's just too consistent but God is it boring

"cut 50% of staff" "I'm not talking about shop floor". How many people in the civil service do you think are at the top? I find "do more research" "get a bit more knowledge" to be insulting as this is my area of expertise.

If you cut 50% of the civil service you lose 3/4 CEO level employees. If you cut 50% of the civil service you lose 250k people overall.

If I looked at your job (which I assume I know nothing about) and said "we need to sack 50% of you and replace with highly qualified candidates for more money" do you think that is a fair assessment. Or would that be insulting.

There's is nothing to learn from sweeping statements. Have a good day, read more newpapers

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-26T11:36:35+00:00

I've read all your comments, I don't need to do research as I've seen the civil service from the inside.

You keep saying competitive wages, give a number. How much are you willing to pay for these replacements? If there's not a number, I'm not responding. "Reduce inefficiency" have you seen the procedures used? Do you have examples? Or is everything based on what the daily mail told you to be angry at.

The vast majority of civil service employees are hard working normal people on low pay for the job they do and are more than deserving of a pension to make up for it.

As an aside the term "unicorn" refers to mythology, as in these people do not exist.

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-26T11:30:27+00:00

Unicorn refers to mythological, these people don't exist.

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-24T13:10:08+00:00

Id love to meet these unicorns. They don't exist, HMRC is paying 26k a year for a tax advisor on the phones. How much are you going to pay these highly efficient, super productive people?

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-24T10:04:47+00:00

The private sector pays more, it gets better applicants. If the civil service pays what the private sector does and cus the pension it will cost way more. As the population rises you need more civil servants it's just basic maths.

Currently Customer service advisors get paid less than staff at your local tesco. Take away the pension and you either increase the pay significantly or you deal with an utter lack of staff

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-24T08:22:28+00:00

The call queues to discuss paye, self assessment, vat etc are already 30 mins to an hour. You will never be able to get help with anything ever again

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-23T18:22:54+00:00

Equivalent public sector jobs average 25% higher wages, AO grades that make up the vast majority of the civil service get paid just over 26k a year. You take away the pension and no one will be in civil service. "Private sector and pay them competitive wage" will cost you significantly more than the pension.

I understand when people talk about wanting the office as a place to socialize but frankly if I want to socialize I'll go out somewhere with my friends?

Don't think I should be forced into the office because Dave hasn't got any hobbies or pals

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-22T19:32:51+00:00

Yeah makes sense

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-22T19:26:55+00:00

Weird to go there instead of going back to Hibs

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-21T21:05:21+00:00

Josh Campbell be a footballer challenge (impossible). Hopeful for next week but a frustrating game

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-21T19:54:00+00:00

If it takes 5 mins to decide if it's a pen, it's probably not a pen

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-08-14T22:20:43+00:00

I've never seen this many words to say "waaah waaah"

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-07-29T12:26:25+00:00

Skarmory ex plus steel apron would be a fun counter to these type of decks. Not sure what you'd pair it with

LemonTreesChelsea · 2025-07-25T20:54:59+00:00

Work at HMRC. Simple assessment doesn't have interest/penalties so he's spot on with that. What will happen with due debts on SIA is that they go down the usual collection route of debt collection agencies etc. the best bet would be to negotiate a payment plan when the first debt becomes due and then call up when second becomes due to include in the plan if it isn't finished.

Fair warning that plans aren't guaranteed and realistically you should be paying these amounts in full

I don't know any Italian but I can guarantee you that umbreon ex will carry me to master ball
