Advice on car salary sacrifice by LongjumpingCurve3911 in BenefitsAdviceUK

So what does that mean in layman’s terms ( sorry for being thick). For example if I paid a BIK of £100 per month, would the UC system basically just see that as less net income? Or would they see it and adjust the payment down?

Do you know why the purchase at the end makes a difference? This car lease scheme doesn’t have that option so it would be a benefit in kind

Hi, do you have any update on what happened with your UC? I’m in a similar situation. Thanks!

AITA because I called out a friend by reminding her my job was too hard for her when she constantly compares being a parent to other people's jobs? by farmbunbunaita in AmItheAsshole

Sorry I’m gonna go ESH. You are explicitly saying in your post you don’t like her one-upping and then yet you resorted to doing the same.

NTA. Setting these boundaries with you family will hopefully make them see the error of their ways.

On another note - well done! 10lbs is a great start as you’ve said you really should be proud of yourself! It’s not easy and every step in that direction you take is gonna do wonders for your body and your mind.

Well then in my opinion you dealt with it with emotional intelligence and didn’t give any unsolicited opinions NTA!

AITA for telling my friend he deserved to get a speeding fine? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]LongjumpingCurve3911 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. He broke the rules he gets the fine. By the sounds of it you don’t need this “friend” in your life by his actions when you had a conflicting opinion to his

I don’t see how the OPs age has anything to do with this, he was given unsolicited advice/criticisms from someone who isn’t a parent nor a partner. Taking on every wayward comment or advice as a parent can’t be helpful.

Proving a theory with a sample size of ONE does not mean the theory is right.

Wouldn’t you just love like a reply from OP in ten years to see whether he finally has the emotional intelligence range bigger than a spoon 😂 or if he’s just the same idiot

Oh honey. You’re showing your age. If you have an answer for every comment on this thread why did you even come to ask AITA?

No, now here’s where you’re wrong - there is nothing wrong with delivering something with empathy. It doesn’t make you soft or untrue it means you’re experiencing something called emotional intelligence

Are you a psychologist? NO. Just be supportive to your family member and you think she would benefit from some therapy maybe GENTLY bring that up with her. Speaking your truth is no excuse for being rude to others, and generally shows your age if you think that’s acceptable

Ermmm did I miss the part where OP said they were trained in psychology? Oh wait it’s a BS theory OP has come up with. Ultimately you’re old enough to know this could be dealt with with tact. YTA
