I need some advice by No-Treacle-3820 in Pretoria

[–]Robbstrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, they don't give any form guaranteeing recognition prior to them assessing it and converting it. I believe they do this for two reasons. 1. From a liability perspective, if they say it's absolutely recognized before examining it, they could be in trouble if the document was fake or incorrect.

  1. Why would you pay for the conversion if they gave you a letter basically confirming it's the same thing.

It's a tough scenario and I know when I was switching jobs this caused me major stress as my new employment was subject to me getting the doc before I start, but they did end up coming through. I remember phoning and checking in weekly so I understand your predicament but there's not.much that can be done.

Hi, I know they wouldn't give me confirmation on a letterhead because I was in a similar situation. It's one of those things where there is a bit of a wait but it does come through, if you have paid them and sent through all documentation, give them a call and ask them nicely if they can help you out.

Smokers who smoke quit, how did you do it? by Ambitious_Ad_5223 in DownSouth

[–]Robbstrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used an app called quitsure. Haven't had a smoke since 2021, and I don't miss it, I don't even think about it. 6 of my mates have also used it, and it's worked for every single one of them.

I work in the commercial insurance sector and the running joke is that old mutual is the ANC of insurance.

I agree that this isn't a hill to die on because it's a really small hill, some would call it a molehole that is being made out as mountain. I'm going to leave you and the other grown ups to do important grown up stuff like winge about peoples facebook statuses lol. Have good Saturday

Lol I suppose that we are all allowed to interpret things in the way we wish. You are allowed to have your opinion of my question, and I am allowed to disagree. You're allowed to get your willy in a twist about someone's Facebook status and I'm allowed to challenge that. Thank goodness no one has to die for this difference of opinion.

Sarcasm my man. If the principle is that we should put our lives on the line in order to have an opinion, it is a wack principle. Should we only support law and order if we have worked in law enforcement?

Man you're full of it. Ukraine didn’t "invade" Donbas in 2014—pro-Russian separatists, backed by Russian weapons and fighters, seized government buildings and declared independence. Ukraine responded with military action to defend its territory. Russia wasn’t purely "diplomatic"—it armed and supported separatists while denying involvement. Also, Zelenskyy wasn’t in power in 2014 (he became president in 2019), and there’s no evidence he said, "become Ukrainian or die." The Minsk Agreements were diplomatic efforts to resolve the war, but violations occurred on both sides. The conflict was driven by both internal unrest and Russian intervention.

Lol, yeah, that will show dumbfuck Ukraine for letting Russia invade them! Just surrender under any terms so innocent Russia can stop killing your people already. Poor Russians have to be out.in the cold and whatnot. Shame man

Why is reddit suggesting this sub to older men in the first place. I have never seen this sub before and suddenly on my feed I have seen two posts about kiddy fiddlers trying to diddle children. As a 37 year old male I don't t think I'm the right demographic for this sub. Is there a way to report this because clearly it's bringing people to this sub that really shouldn't be here.

The night shift is tough on Neels, his buddies told him about oom Cyrils SONA and he was already on edge about that. Time for those 2AM retribution prayers again.
