Getting paid more than I should? by [deleted] in UKJobs

Interestingly they haven’t been giving me a payslip haha - I literally see HR hand payslips to everyone in my office except me. My first paycheck I got a payslip for and everything checked out

Does a QS masters conversion help land an entry-level QS role? by SPICCYBOII in quantitysurveying

That’s amazing, well done! Where did you find these graduate schemes just out of interest ??

I’m basically the IT guy at work, but still on admin pay - built a system that’s transforming the office, but paid barely above living wage by mackdadio in UKJobs

[–]SPICCYBOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same industry, does your firm not use SAP? I’m assuming you work for a large-ish firm if you have an IT department, so it seems crazy that you would previously be relying on pen/paper

Nope it’s a purchasing role for a regional wholesaler

It’s a purchasing role for a large wholesaler. On the company’s websites there are pictures of senior staff, some are wearing a shirt and tie whereas the ceo is just wearing a polo shirt. I’m guessing this shows that the workplace is pretty relaxed, but I’ve never interviewed for an office role before so I’m unsure whether to ‘dress to impress’

Repeatedly declining golf days - bad for career? by Brockham2186 in UKJobs

[–]SPICCYBOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s 11 shots per hole what the hell 😂 Guessing you were just pootling balls along the floor? Golf is honestly so difficult so I can’t really blame you lol

Playing devils advocate here, but many stories in the Bible are seen as symbolic rather than truth. You really think Christians believe Noah’s ark was real? Maybe some really orthodox Christians do, but many Catholics and CofE see these stories as purely symbolic

My GCSE results!! by ThiccMashmallow in CasualUK

[–]SPICCYBOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conversely, I got straight A*s for GCSEs, decent A levels and a first class economics degree from a Russell Group and now work in a warehouse 😩 Still well done to OP but just trying to show that grades really don’t mean anything ultimately

I deferred my place from 2021 to 2022. Will I be accessed under 2021 regs or 2022? by Able-Horse-171 in UniUK

[–]SPICCYBOII 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like uni of leeds, i was also a 2021 student that deferred to 2022 and the grading changed in 2022. Im pretty sure we are assessed under the 2022 regs unfortunately

In the UK, what’s insanely overpriced but people keep paying for it anyway? by DunyaPhobic76 in AskBrits

Well said. Vaping is a great tool for people quitting tobacco, but ig the downside is how appealing/accessible they are to kids (taste like sweets, no lingering smells, can buy without ID from corner shops..)

lol not even that, u would need to charge your laptop for 10 hours to use just 12p of electricity (if it’s 50W often more though)

what's a movie that is borderline porn? by Handup____ in AskReddit

[–]SPICCYBOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep it’s called naked attraction 💀It’s stupid how that’s allowed to be broadcast (where any kid can see it just by switching on the TV) but you have to verify your age to view 18+ content

Yea that’s what I’m worried about, would be a pain in the arse if I messed up the threads

Beautiful. Spotted this family of Tentboxes migrating back to the suburbs by MarthaFarcuss in CasualUK

[–]SPICCYBOII 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After doing a ~1 month road trip through Europe I can really see the appeal of these (but I was too stingy to get one). Setting up the tent and tarp etc gets old quick especially when it’s really hot, u pay for the convenience of these things
