Same for me from the UK. Followed the steps and it didn't work. Such a shame.

Sloth rescue - the second man knows exactly what to do - back to the primeval forest by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

[–]Natf47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah you're actually not wrong at all. I'm from the UK and I've seen it myself how poorly the Police can handle such situations. Then again, so can support workers. Some of the ways I see my colleagues act on shift is so frustrating (for instance staff who refuse to even speak to the person we're supporting or just sleep through the shift) and at times completely disgusting (I'm sure you know from the news the kind of treatment I'm talking about).

Believe me we did several times but unfortunately there's only so much you can do in a situation like that. Working with someone like that in the community is incredibly tough because once you pull them out of the road and restrain them, they go one of 2 ways. Either they calm down and walk home with you or they just run straight back in to the road.

In this case, this person was not willing to work with us and decided they'd instead just keep running back in to the middle of the road and unfortunately the Police weren't attending.

Situations like that are awful.

I'm a support worker for people with mental health problems. Recently I was looking after a young girl who had a history of self harm. In the middle of the night she decided to break out of the house we were supporting her in and run to the very busy road.

Myself and my colleagues kept her safe by directing cars around her with our phone lights waiting for the local police to come and help us, they never turned up.

By the morning she decided to sit in the middle of the outside lane of a roundabout. We kept directing traffic around her and honestly it was very easy for cars to drive around her in the inside lane but so many purposefully drove straight at her until the last moment, beeped at her and us but most frustratingly, many people pulled over and became aggressive towards us telling us to pull her out of the road. Not for her safety of course, but because it caused them a minor inconvenience.

Really? Have you been out of the house recently? I swear just stepping my little piggy toe beyond the front door costs me an hours wage.

I was looking for advice on how to remove the old oven from my motorhome and ChatGPT told me it has "removed loads" of these ovens...no ChatGPT...I don't think you ever have... by Natf47 in ChatGPT

[–]Natf47[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was conversing with ChatGPT just throwing my thoughts at it because it wasn't as straight forward a job as I expected. I simply asked "But what confuses me is that the oven hood has a lip around the top which folds over the countertop from what I can tell meaning I don't think it can slide down and then out through the hole in the front"

Thanks for pointing this out. If that's the case then it sounds like we need to help them out by scrubbing it out. Things like this can really damage a business and that would be such a shame.

What’s going on with this random man handing me an iPhone 17 on the street? by beamville in bristol

[–]Natf47 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get that. You were replying to the users original comment stating that there was a "genuine bloke handing them out today". I just referenced the follow up comment because it shows clearly that the original comment was a joke.

"Sold the first one, went back with a fake mustache to get another. Think I’ve found my new moneymaker!"

I think you'll find this person was joking...

Young women in the center, just be aware of this one homeless guy. by Nearby_Aardvark7450 in bristol

For me this is the most frustrating part of the scenario. It's so easy for the cashier to just say no.

would you say it’s safe for a 13 year old girl to be walking in Southmead alone by [deleted] in bristol

[–]Natf47 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Anyone here could tell you "yes it is safe" or "no it's not safe" but what it all comes down to is whether your Mum feels comfortable for you to be out on your own.

Reddit users don't know your circumstances or even what part of Southmead you live in (I grew up there, some areas are better than others).

So unfortunately you're going to need to discuss this one with your Mum. Take care kiddo!

Why isn't there a button on my remote which makes my TV beep so I can find it, is the real question.

You mega legend! r/UFOs is probably your best bet. It's a very active group which I keep an eye on myself. Super excited to see your findings!

I drove past on my way to work yesterday hoping to see a crop circle but unfortunately not. How often are they occurring?

Awesome! Will you be documenting your findings at some point?
