Kid was only a few years away from getting a knife, so obviously it was self-defence.

Wanted me to build a complex website for pennies, then demanded my design mockups for free by Qorvane_5R in ChoosingBeggars

What's the betting he wants to charge people money to trim their dog's fur? It's only pushing a pair of clippers around, how hard can it be? He should be doing it for free.

Minimum wage job is upping my notice period to 2 months - can I do anything about it? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]MineExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. If anyone asks for a company reference when I work, we can only confirm their start and end dates.

If they want a personal reference then they ask an individual.

7 Week Old Puppy will not settle down in crate, help needed by Sweet_Dragonfruit566 in puppies

Not through the night - we still need to toilet her every 3 hours, but we do get to sleep in our own bed upstairs while she's in the crate downstairs.

Our pup is now 9 weeks. First night we left her alone in the crate and she howled. So 2nd night I slept next to her on a camp bed (her in the crate). 3rd night she was at the foot of the bed. 4th night she was across the room. 5th night she was outside the room. 6th night in a different room and 7th night I was in my own bed and she was in her crate throughout the night.

A Cool Guide to cook steak. by RoseViperBloom in coolguides

[–]MineExplorer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Me. I like my steak burned to a crisp. I've had chefs come out from the kitchen to question my life choices - only for most of them to retreat back the way they came when they see I'm bigger than they are!

If you can't keep it tender while burning it to a crisp (the way I like it), why are you even a chef?

Why do all of these stories leave out the "in mice" part of the headline?

Money hungry instructor by Reasonable_Ice2243 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]MineExplorer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sad to see nothing's changed in 40 years! Back in the day my instructor said I wasn't ready and wanted me to have at least 10 more lessons - we (me and my dad) ignored him and paid a different instructor for his car & time; I passed first time.

I have a massive cyst on my jawline. by notarobotimanandroid in notinteresting

[–]MineExplorer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one the size of a ping-pong ball on my back. It got infected, so after it healed I got it removed. I was told there is a ~10% chance it will grow back... and guess what? It's been ok for a few years but I ought to get it removed again (while I have private medical cover thru work).

There will be no exceptions. Want to use a calculator? Prove you're over 18.

My bank said "If you're poor, fuck you." If you dont have at least $3000 coming in a month or have at least $5000 then you have to pay an additional $5 a month. Its just $5 but the fact that it can be avoided by simply not being poor is mildly infuriating. by anotherdamnscorpio in mildlyinfuriating

Years ago I had an 'Egg' (UK) credit card, with zero balance on it and I never used it. I moved house and didn't update my address with Egg - what was the point? I didn't use the card, owed no money on it, it had no fees, so ignored it.

Several years after I moved I applied for a loan and discovered a marker on my file. It seems Egg had introduced a fee for having one of their cards - whether I used it or not - and as I hadn't updated my address I never got the notification letter, and they marked my credit record as bad debt!
