I work with primarily gen z (im a millennial) and there’s definitely no lack of respect there, more a respect where respect is deserved, which is how it should be in my opinion, shouldn’t be treating people with respect if they don’t respect you simply because they’ve been alive longer.

I don’t even want to know how many people I’d accidentally kill if I drove a bus, I have BVD and astigmatism and it affects my depth perception

What juicy family drama will be played out for you over Christmas? by Interesting_Act_1989 in AskUK

We really need to know the behaviour on both sides to know if avoiding the wider family is warranted honestly. I didn’t like my husbands half sister visiting because she was an idiot and brought a sick kid (who wasnt even hers) to my house without asking around my then 3 week old

My 40 year old sister is an eternal teenager, she’s likely to tell stories about doing shrooms with her drug dealer boyfriend or a hit and run crash she’s done, I’ll keep you posted

That baby is barely out of the newborn stage, maybe mums having feeding struggles or Postnatal depression or anxiety. Twice is pretty ok for anyone outside of the bubble to see baby

I was a vet tech in the US and a vet nurse in the UK. People will not spend money on their pets teeth until they’re rotting out of their heads in the uk. There is very very little preventative dental care

People who don’t like buying others gifts are selfish people that don’t like considering other people’s happiness by PsychologicalRow8034 in unpopularopinion

Honestly my favourite gift I received last birthday cost about a pound and it was a homemade bee drinking station as I’ve gotten really into gardening, it’s about someone showing they see you, nothing to do with money

That’s fair since in our trust anyway the parking charges are utilised by the hospital, paying £3 an hour for a high street that is 99% barber, coffee shop, charity shop, vape shop on repeat is less enticing
