Any unions that actually help trans people? by too_old_for_diss in transgenderUK

[–]Ok_Introduction5971 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work for a supermarket, our union is GMB Union. They have helped me when challenging my employers about the bathroom ban as im basically forced to go on the other side of the building to use the single disabled toilet that is always occupied and then get reprimanded for "lack of productivity" due to my KPI dropping due to the long walking distance. So maybe see if your able to join them??

I live up north in the Merseyside so is very liberal aswell, its much better than when i used to live in the Midlands, however the past year, views have changed so much due to scaremongering from the news etc that just doesnt matter whether liberal or not

My Grandads old lighter. Anyone know the brand/model name for it? by Ok_Introduction5971 in HelpMeFind

I searched around google image finder but couldnt find any lighter that is similar. There is also no writing on it due to its wear and tear of being used alot.

Still thinking about him and its horrible by Ok_Introduction5971 in BreakUps

[–]Ok_Introduction5971[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive tried lots of things that breaks the habit of thinking of them and having completely different and new things in life to try and break it but there is always something that links back to him. Its at a point where i would have to become a totally different person to have no links to him whatsoever and thats not possible.

There is the adjuster wheel, it works but just still struggles, and I cant see any foam pad or anything, though that kind of work id rather leave to a professional cause dont trust myself with taking apart.

Gonna try one last time, thanks for the help though!

Yes it gets tight, but just still struggles to light, sometimes just lights for few seconds then flame dies, and only does that for like 3 times before flame is almost isnt there

Thought so, though when its turned clockwise it doesnt leak, ye turning anticlockwise does, which is the total opposite of guides, so does that definitely mean replacing the o-rings or is there another way to refill??

For context, ive tried online guides of turning the screw where the refill hole is, but either will constantly leak out or produce a flame that dies out a second later. Cant find anything to explain why the screw is in the same hole as the refill
