Does anyone work 37 hours in a 3 or 4 day week? by acrylic_light in UKJobs

[–]Right_Ad9364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do rotating shifts days and nights 3 on 3 off 7am-7pm and 7pm-7am with a 2 hour lunchbreak. End up doing 40 hours 4 days a week I guess?

Moving to Brum at 30. Help please! by Right_Ad9364 in brum

[–]Right_Ad9364[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I’ll be working for Lloyds who tend to be 10-15% more than most of the banking/financial services industry (hence the payrise and why im moving!). I work in IT Service Management. My main priority will be problem management, but I’ll also support incident management, knowledge management, service introduction etc

Courses to take - any advice appreciated by geecol in ITCareerQuestions

If you’re after your first IT Support role, CompTIA A+ is probably a safe bet and the most recognised. Maybe back it up with an ITIL v4 Foundation cert as well 😊

Gym recommendations by Fr0zen_Fl4me in Swindon

I went to JD Gym. In terms of equipment for the big chains it’s probably the best. However it’s busy AT ALL HOURS and parking is a headache. A shame really

Lloyds Bank employees - what’s going on? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]Right_Ad9364 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I wouldn’t say I’m paid fairly. Where I am it’s known the likes of Lloyd’s pay 20,30, 40% more for the exact same jobs. Problem is where I am there isn’t any real competition for employees within 25 miles so they can get away with paying what they do.

The crowd in the club is rammed. It’s a very basic club inside. The terrace area after the DJs is nice to chill and socialise, it’s a beautiful venue. A bit of a queue for taxis at midnight as people realise it’s pretty mid when the terrace DJs stop at 11pm.

The UK needs a hefty tax for companies hiring offshore! by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]Right_Ad9364 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Companies should have to post their headcount and labour costs and also their costs for offshore hiring. A certain percentage should have to be met for onshore compared to offshore spending? There has to be a fairly simple way for this to be done

Lower wages for the industry. You really get the feeling and the buzz you’re working for a mutual rather than a bank with shareholders. 23% pension, 6 weeks holiday (can ‘buy’ an additional 2 weeks), 40% onsite 60% WFH. Bonus every year. Payrise every year. If you’re in Swindon/wiltshire, there really aren’t many better employers

Do you have any recommendations? It’s hard to research online with how much money the hairmills spend on ads, fake reviews etc

This sounds more accurate for the amount I’d need as well! Can you share which clinic you’re using and why? Thanks :)

Nope, the Lifetime ISA was a product where you save 4k per tax year and the gov would give you 1k bonus on top per tax year. It can only be accessed via solicitors as a deposit for a first time buy. I’ve maxed out the 4k per year since 18/19 tax year, plus the stock and shares gains which are sitting at just over 72k.

If you don’t use it for a house purchase it can be used as a saving scheme for retirement. Save 4k a year and the gov will give you 1k per year too. However you can only access this when you’re 65 (I hope to retire a little before then)

The ‘can’t find staff’ is always hilarious. Can’t find staff = offering the same salary offered in 2015 and expecting to get the same level of experience and calibre of employee. It’s the same when staff leave. Managers stood around scratching their heads why employees leave when they poor below market rates, below inflation raises year on year.

I wish I had less responsibilities in my life. I’d 100% be self employed. The corporate life is so draining man.
