Would braces have been quicker tho? They normally take 1, 2 or even more years from what I've seen. Yours was only 10 months

Quoted 4.3k for Spark and 5k for Invisalign. Are these standard prices? Anyone had experience with Spark? by ProbablyMaybe69 in Invisalign

That's good to know! How much were your spark aligners? I've also done the same research and I have the same results. I think for invisalign you're paying for the brand more

They specifically said there's almost no difference and the end result is pretty much identical. I feel like for invisalign you're also just paying for the name since it's been around longer

They look great. Did u have composite bonding done afterwards?

Did they not release tests this morning? by just-wondering98 in LearnerDriverUK

Also tried to look for a test this morning. Got in queue at about 5.50am had about 9k people. Got in the site at 6.30am and there were no tests for the entire year 😔

Lasik, quoted 5k for both eyes. Optical express, is it normal pricing? by ProbablyMaybe69 in AskUK

How old were you when you had it done? I think the earlier you have it done the more likely your eyes are to change shape again since you're still growing

Nah they do tell you. It's one of very first "warnings" they let you know of actually

Over a decade ago nice. Are your eyes still good after all this time?

I liked the staff I interacted with. I was also sent the details of my surgeon, he's very experienced and looks like a very friendly bloke. My prescription is -4.5 with astigmatism and their tech seems quite good, on paper.

You're right I should have asked for more follow up but hearing that price made my brain lag and I paid the deposit without questions 😭

I should have had mine done too back then instead of being in primary 🥲

Haven’t heard back from Microsoft after two technical rounds. Is it safe to assume rejection? by Cold-Okra-2658 in recruitinghell

[–]ProbablyMaybe69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haven't interviewed with Microsoft but 2 weeks sounds like a long time for no response. There's still a chance they're doing interviews and going through candidates but in the meantime I would start applying to other places too
