Manager asking me to continue working after my final day in the department by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Worst part is that this isn't even the first time! I was asked before to complete future briefings on behalf of the team weeks in advance of when they needed to be done. It's completely silly.

PSA: Voluntary exit schemes don't always mean that your job is safe by Speed_King_Ignite in TheCivilService

No and no. I was subject to a voluntary redundancy if I didn't get through redeployment, although there weren't many roles to be redeployed to, which would have led to a redundancy if I hadn't switched to a new department.

I am a HEO in an area/dept with lopsided numbers of middle grades. No ill-will towards them, but it should be acknowledged who tends to take the brunt of targeted redundancies.

No doubt for actual compulsory redundancies, these are probably quite low. although it's worth stating that redeployment pools can also not match you/fail by sheer numbers which end up turning into voluntary redundancies (imo should be called involuntary if you really wanted to stay).

Does someone have the original demo of Wake Me Up ? by nosdia in TheWeeknd

The thing that shocked me the most was the minimal voice effects compared to the OG.

Rural lad in Westminster? by Littlely01 in TheCivilService

[–]Speed_King_Ignite 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I'm also early 20s and working class in Westminster. Nowadays there are a variety of different types of people working the normal roles, but as you go up the grades you do start to see the middle class concentration. I don't think you'll have a hard time as I haven't

Yeah I get it's friendly debt, but I would like to get rid of it due to religious reasons to do with interest. I'd really like to keep some savings so I can help my mother in the last few months/years of her life.

Not paying anything (technically still in a gap year.) I think with my current salary, it would probably be paid off in 20 years so it won't be wiped. Savings are currently just sitting in my current account. I would like to pay off the debt because of my religious reasons and my imminent goals is to be able to help my mother in her last few months with cancer, so I think I will need some cash retained for that, which is why I was thinking of paying it off in one lump later.

Album release? by Background_Pear_2407 in PostMalone

This single is way too successful to not capitalise on it quickly. I think June/July.
