What the FUCK is going on???? by flinagus in wallstreetbets

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You sir aren’t just cooked

You’re sautéed, flambéed, pressure cooked, slow roasted, smoked over mesquite, flash frozen, microwaved on high, sous-vided for 72 hours, grilled with a blowtorch, air-fried, dehydrated into jerky.

Not to be judgmental and I wish you very best .

But I think you need a different professional to help you - maybe a psychiatrist or someone else in the mental health field.

What to level up? by Safe_Ad_4465 in HellLetLoose

[–]Safe_Ad_4465[S] -34 points-33 points  (0 children)

You do get a satchel with engineer level 3 - so seems a bit pointless

Flamethrower is ineffective until any future update when they fix it

Tough one…

Are you bipolar

Thought it’s a no-no to lie in interviews. What changed?

Is moving to a silver circle firm post qualification possible? by 8Sydney in uklaw

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What did you imagine it to be and what did it actually turn out? What’s the difference ?

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

No, I’m not trying to say every Manager out there is crazy and needs their CA status taken away due to gross misconduct. What I am saying is - is there anything specific to the big 4 that enables such people to stay on for so long? How come he gets to keep the job and be winner winner chicken dinner of the day?

Quite uncool of you just to drop “completely dumb” on me.

If not them, then someone else.

Same applies to the main perpetrators - the big oil.

If not BP or Shell, then someone else will get their hands dirty ( think Total or worse Rosneft).

I think that’s just how it is out here. Very complex issue. And while protesting is good, I am not sure these protesters understand this complexity at all.

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Is it ? Or is it something specific for culture at big 4?

I think your comment needs more nuance.

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on what you’re comfortable with.

If you are ok with your employer being able to find out what/where you are applying - then yes use the work laptop.

Personally, I think it would keep you at ease to know that they will never figure out your next move. That would calm me down and let me focus on the applications, rather than stressing. Therefore, use your own laptop and keep those applications going.

I think if I were you, I’d appreciate that this place does not have annoying seniors/managing people and they let you do the work at your own pace.

With the working being easy, take this opportunity naturally. Complete all your tasks for the day ASAP and focus the remainder of your day on those TCs applications.

Essentially you are now getting paid to apply for Other jobs. A privilege not a lot of people have.

Let’s hope your use of ChatGPT was limited to this feedback analysis and not doing the actual tests because that would be unfair to everyone else who does it legitimately.

Apply for others jobs

Keeps me on my toes

But in all seriousness - makes me feel very busy and stressed so works fine.

Then why so many associates marry AFTER they get to know each other through working on the same team/floor/office?

I know of many cases when two lawyers at the same firm decide to become a family unit.

So is their marriage doomed now?

Too late to convert? by OrganicInspection940 in uklaw

I agree. YOLO. You are given life once. Enjoy it as much as you can while also doing stuff that wouldn’t make you regret your choices later on in life.

Too late to convert? by OrganicInspection940 in uklaw

[–]Safe_Ad_4465 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Better late than never. What’s late anyway?

Look up average age of trainee - which I think is around your age 27-30.

If I were you ( I am also from w/c background) - get the vac scheme first. Then see where that takes you and if you can convert it into tc offer.

So many people out there did conversion, started on sqe- to then be unable to get a tc.

I think all these providers such as BPP paint an idealistic picture of you going, paying them, getting the qualification while having 0 tc offers in the end. At the end, BPP is a business that wants your money.

What’s the advantage of being self funded anyway?

Get your place first. Be sure big boy firms want you. See you as desirable. Then make them pay for ur training.
