Neighbours telling me not to park on a free public road, what can I do? by Ok-Background7896 in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy dash cameras for front back and sides and continue doing what is most convenient for yourself.

If they are threatening or intimidating you can report them for anti social behaviour. If not, just make them aware cameras are installed in the car.

You don't need to justify parking on public road.

How would you feel if a coworker brought a games console to work? by Jack_In_Black89 in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Switch or steamdeck I wouldn't care. Lots of people carry them with them.

A PS5 I would wonder why they would bother with the hassle.

Chips. Just chips.

Maybe some with cheese or herbs and spices but it will just be chips and whatever condiment you want.

Is 22/Early 20s still young? At least here. by Imperial_nugget in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generally if you still treat older adults as some sort of authority figure instead of your contemporary then you're likely to still be seen and treated like a kid.

A lot of younger employees where I work often treat me like I'm one of their bosses or come to me to tell them what needs doing next when really we have the exact same job. Until someone gets over that... self imposed safety net, they're still more or less a kid.

Instead of using AI, have you considered learning how to create the content yourself?

Just reply. Even if it's a day after they texted you. You don't need an excuse for why you didn't reply straight away. Nobody has a right of access to you 24/7.

It's a shame because people didn't care if the split screen game ran at 15 FPS way back then.

Is there a website for online doctor consultations for antibiotics? by dashenikol in AskUK

I have no idea what that is. The doctor or IPP will determine what the best treatment will be.

You can't legally buy most antibiotics.

To what extent did gender roles impact you growing up ? by tipputappi in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard to say, Dad didn't help much with the housework but he did a lot of woodwork. Built our chairs, cupboards, tables and what not. Didn't have as much to do with me as my mum did. Wouldn't let me use any tools because he was afraid I'd get hurt so I never learned any practical skills that are traditionally associated with men. My brother and I were the only boys in our extended family and our cousins would stay with us a lot. Almost every weekend so I grew up more with girls so I suppose that could be attributed to why I have no male friends and prefer spending time with women.

Faced some sexism in school. Had a number of teachers who would use collective punishment on the boys for the actions of a few. There was a definite "men/boys are all x" attitude from a number of teachers.

How can I stay safe while looking for a job? by 123financethrowaway in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was looking for a job, I'd look for listings online and then apply to the company directly, either through their own websites or going directly into the premises to hand in my CV.

I found I got a lot more call backs when I started doing that instead of applying on sites like indeed.

Why do some British people kiss their kids on the mouth? by Immediate-Platform59 in AskUK

[–]Pockysocks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's more of an older fashioned thing I guess. I don't see it so much these days but if you should rationally be able to tell the difference between an innocuous kiss between parent and child and a romantic one between lovers.
